  • 2. 

    The daughter cells are completely ______ to each other.

    Explanation
    The daughter cells are completely identical to each other means that they have the same genetic information and characteristics. This suggests that they were produced through a process of cell division, where the parent cell divides into two identical daughter cells. This ensures that the genetic material is equally distributed between the two cells, resulting in identical copies.

    Interphase is technically not part of mitosis.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Interphase is the phase of the cell cycle where the cell prepares for division by growing, replicating its DNA, and synthesizing proteins. It is not considered part of mitosis, which specifically refers to the division of the nucleus. Interphase occurs before mitosis and is necessary for the proper progression of the cell cycle. Therefore, the statement that interphase is not part of mitosis is true.

  • 4. 

    When does the paired chromosomes separate at the kinetochores and move to opposite sides of the cell?

    • During Interphase

    • During Prophase

    • During Anaphase

    • During Telophase

    Correct Answer
    A. During Anaphase
    Explanation
    During Anaphase, the paired chromosomes separate at the kinetochores and move to opposite sides of the cell. This is a crucial stage of cell division where the microtubules attached to the kinetochores contract, pulling the sister chromatids apart. As a result, each chromatid is pulled towards the opposite poles of the cell, ensuring that each daughter cell receives a complete set of chromosomes. This process allows for the proper distribution of genetic material during cell division.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    In which stage does the nucleus disappear?

    • Interphase

    • Prophase

    • Anaphase

    • Cytokenisis

    Correct Answer
    A. Prophase
    Explanation
    During prophase, the first stage of mitosis, the nucleus disappears. This is because the nuclear envelope breaks down, allowing the genetic material within the nucleus to be accessible for further processes such as chromosome condensation and spindle formation. The disappearance of the nucleus marks the beginning of the process of cell division.
