- Q1A photomicrograph of onion root tip cells during mitosis is shown below. Which phase of mitosis is occurring in the cell indicated by the arrow?MetaphaseTelophaseProphaseAnaphase60sBIOL.5a
- Q2Which of these must occur during S phase of the cell cycle so that two daughter cells can be produced during M phase?The cytoplasm must be separatedThe cell membrane must be expandedThe DNA must be replicatedThe chromosomes must be joined60sBIOL.5a
- Q3Checkpoints occur between the stages of the cell cycle. If a cell does not meet certain criteria at the end of a stage, it will not move to the next stage. Which of these occurs just before the cell enters the G2 stage of the cell cycle?DNA replicatesThe nucleolus dividesCentrioles formThe nuclear membrane disintegrates60sBIOL.5a
- Q4Telophase is a stage of a cellular process that begins after the chromosomes have moved to opposite poles of the cell. During which cellular process does telophase occur?InterphaseTranslationMitosisTranscription60sBIOL.5a
- Q5The model represents the change in the DNA content of a cell during the cell cycle. Which part of the model represents the S phase?IIIIIIVI60sBIOL.5a
- Q6Scientists can bioengineer skin in a laboratory to treat severe burns and other types of skin injuries. This bioengineered tissue is grown from living cells. The cellular process that enables the cells to grow and develop into tissue is -meiosismitosisbuddingconjugation60sBIOL.5a
- Q7The diagram shows cells in different phases of mitosis. A student is trying to find a cell in a particular phase of mitosis. The student is looking for evidence that spindle fibers are separating the chromosomes to ensure that each new nucleus has one copy of each chromosome. Which cell is in the phase of mitosis that the student is searching for?Cell 1Cell 3Cell 2Cell 460sBIOL.5a
- Q860sBIOL.5a
- Q9Part of the cell cycle is shown in this simplified model. This part of the cell cycle is best described as the process that -duplicates the DNAsynthesizes new moleculescompletes cell divisionmaintains genetic homeostasis60sBIOL.5a
- Q10People who have leukemia, a cancer that affects white blood cells, are often given Cytarabine. This drug inhibits the synthesis of DNA. Which phase of the cell cycle is most affected by Cytarabine?M phaseG2 phaseS phaseG1 phase60sBIOL.5a
- Q11The activities in the cell cycle occur during specific phases. In which phase of the cell cycle is DNA replicated?MitosisS phaseG1 phaseG2 phase60sBIOL.5a
- Q12This model of the cell cycle includes two arrows that each represent a process in the cycle. What do the two arrows represent?Arrow 1 represents prophase, and Arrow 2 represents interphase.Arrow 1 represents mitosis, and Arrow 2 represents meiosis.Arrow 1 represents meiosis, and Arrow 2 represents prophase.Arrow 1 represents interphase, and Arrow 2 represents mitosis.60sBIOL.5a
