Subject: Cell Cycle
1. What is mitosis?
A.
B.
C.
D.
A cell divides from one parent cell into two identical daughter cells
A cell divides from one parent cell into two different daughter cells
A cell divides from one parent cell into four different daughter cells
A cell divides from one parent cell into four identical daughter cells
2. Which cell cycle stage is the longest?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Interphase
Mitosis
Cytokinesis
Cell Division
3. Why do cells divide?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Growing organisms need more cells
The volume of the cell gets to large for the surface area of the cell
To repair damaged cells
All of the above

10. What happens during interphase?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Normal cell function
Cell grows
DNA replication
All of the above
11. If there are 4 chromosomes in the cell at interphase, how many chromosomes will be present after telophase?
A.
B.
C.
D.
4
2
12
8
12. What is cytokinesis?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Dividing the nucleus
Replicating the DNA
Split the parent cell into two daughter cells
Makes the cell bigger.
13. Which is the chromatids?
B
C
14. Which is the centromere?
B
C
15. Which is the sister chromatids?
B
C
16. What happens in cancer cells?
A.
B.
C.
D.
The DNA mutates and is passed along to the daughter cells. Division happens rapidly and cancer spreads.
The daughter cells do not divide.
The parent cell does not divide.
One daughter cell is bigger than the other daughter cell.
17. What is homeostasis?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Regulation of the internal environment of an organism
How your body functions
Regulation of the external environment of an organism
How organisms survive
18. What is one topic that helps to maintain homeostasis? Bonus if you can name the other two
A.
B.
C.
D.
Maintaining blood sugar
Structure and function
Cell Division
Temperature
19. What do spindle fibers do (orange yarn)?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Pull apart sister chromatids to opposite ends of the cell
Breaks the centromeres of the sister chromatids
Condenses chromosomes
Breaks the cell into two cells
20. Explain one way homeostasis works.
Could talk about how body regulates glucose, sweat, or water
Could talk about structure function, division of labor, and interdependence of organ systems.
Ex: Body gets to hot= sweat to cool you down; Body gets cold= shiver to keep warm, blood circulates towards the center of body the best
