    Duplication of DNA takes place during ________________

    • Interphase

    • Metaphase

    • Cytokinesis

    • Anaphase

    Correct Answer
    A. Interphase
    Explanation
    DNA replication occurs during the interphase of the cell cycle. Interphase is the phase between cell divisions where the cell grows and prepares for division. During interphase, the DNA is duplicated so that each daughter cell will receive a complete set of genetic information. Metaphase, anaphase, and cytokinesis are all stages of mitosis, where the duplicated DNA is separated and distributed to the daughter cells. Therefore, the correct answer is interphase.

    Which part of the microscope allows you to shift objectives?

    • Ocular

    • Revolving nosepiece

    • Diaphragm

    • Coarse adjustment knob

    Correct Answer
    A. Revolving nosepiece
    Explanation
    The revolving nosepiece of a microscope allows you to shift objectives. This part holds the different objective lenses and can be rotated to switch between them. By rotating the nosepiece, you can easily change the magnification power of the microscope and focus on different details of the specimen being observed. This feature is essential for adjusting the microscope to obtain clear and detailed images at different magnifications.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    Under which objective will you see a larger diameter or field of view (in um)?

    • LPO (4x)

    • MPO (10x)

    • HPO (40x)

    • Ocular (10x)

    Correct Answer
    A. LPO (4x)
    Explanation
    The objective with the larger diameter or field of view will provide a wider view of the specimen. In this case, the LPO (4x) objective has a lower magnification compared to the MPO (10x) and HPO (40x) objectives. Generally, objectives with lower magnification have a larger diameter or field of view, allowing for a broader view of the specimen. The ocular (10x) refers to the eyepiece and does not affect the diameter or field of view of the objective.

    What is the difference between mitosis and cytokinesis?

    • Cytokinesis is the division of the cytoplasm, while mitosis is the division of the nucleus.

    • Cytokinesis is the division of the nucleus, while mitosis is the division of the cytoplasm.

    • Cytokinesis happens in plants, while mitosis happens in animals.

    • Cytokinesis happens in animals, while mitosis happens in plants.

    Correct Answer
    A. Cytokinesis is the division of the cytoplasm, while mitosis is the division of the nucleus.
    Explanation
    Cytokinesis and mitosis are both processes involved in cell division. Cytokinesis specifically refers to the division of the cytoplasm, which occurs after the nucleus has divided. During cytokinesis, the cytoplasm is divided into two daughter cells. On the other hand, mitosis is the process of dividing the nucleus, where the DNA is replicated and distributed equally into two daughter nuclei. Therefore, the correct answer is that cytokinesis is the division of the cytoplasm, while mitosis is the division of the nucleus.

    What is the basic difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells?

    • A eukaryotic cell has a nucleus, while a prokaryotic cell has no nucleus.

    • A prokaryotic cell has a nucleus, while a eukaryotic cell has no nucleus.

    • All prokaryotic organisms are unicellular, while all eukaryotic organisms are multicellular.

    • All prokaryotic organisms are multicellular, while all eukaryotic organisms are unicellular.

    Correct Answer
    A. A eukaryotic cell has a nucleus, while a prokaryotic cell has no nucleus.
    Explanation
    The basic difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells is that eukaryotic cells have a nucleus, while prokaryotic cells do not. The presence of a nucleus in eukaryotic cells allows for the compartmentalization of DNA and other cellular components, which enables more complex cellular functions. Prokaryotic cells, on the other hand, lack a nucleus and have their DNA freely floating in the cytoplasm. This structural difference is one of the key distinctions between these two types of cells.

    Which of the following shows the correct order in the cell cycle?

    • Interphase  anaphase  metaphase  telophase  prophase  cytokinesis

    • Interphase  prophase  telophase  anaphase  metaphase  cytokinesis

    • Interphase  prophase  metaphase  anaphase  telophase  cytokinesis

    • Interphase metaphase  anaphase  prophase  telophase  cytokinesis

    Correct Answer
    A. Interphase  prophase  metaphase  anaphase  telophase  cytokinesis
    Explanation
    The correct order in the cell cycle is interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, and cytokinesis. Interphase is the longest phase where the cell grows and DNA is replicated. Prophase is the first stage of mitosis where the chromosomes condense and the nuclear envelope breaks down. Metaphase is the stage where the chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell. Anaphase is when the sister chromatids separate and move towards opposite ends of the cell. Telophase is the stage where the nuclear envelope reforms and the chromosomes decondense. Finally, cytokinesis is the division of the cytoplasm to form two daughter cells.

    What happens during anaphase?

    • Splitting of sister chromatids

    • Alignment of chromosomes at the equator

    • Moving of sister chromatids towards opposite poles

    • Coiling and condensing of DNA

    Correct Answer
    A. Splitting of sister chromatids
    Explanation
    During anaphase, the sister chromatids, which are replicated copies of each chromosome, separate and move towards opposite poles of the cell. This splitting of sister chromatids ensures that each daughter cell receives a complete set of chromosomes during cell division. The movement of sister chromatids towards opposite poles is facilitated by the contraction of spindle fibers, which pull the chromatids apart. This process ensures the accurate distribution of genetic material and is a crucial step in cell division.

    • A pair of sister chromatids joined at the centromere.

    • Duplicated DNA

    • A pair of sister chromatids that separate during anaphase.

    Correct Answer
    A. A pair of chromosomes with the same gene sequence and structure.
    Explanation
    Homologous chromosomes are a pair of chromosomes that have the same gene sequence and structure. This means that they contain the same genes in the same order, although they may have different alleles. Homologous chromosomes are inherited from each parent and are involved in genetic recombination during meiosis. They align and exchange genetic material during a process called crossing over, which contributes to genetic diversity. Therefore, the correct answer is that homologous chromosomes are a pair of chromosomes with the same gene sequence and structure.

    Rate this question:

  • 18. 

    What is joined by a centromere?

    • Homologous chromosomes

    • Sister chromatids

    • Daughter cells

    • Duplicated DNA

    Correct Answer
    A. Sister chromatids
    Explanation
    Sister chromatids are joined by a centromere. During the cell division process, the DNA in a chromosome is replicated, resulting in two identical copies called sister chromatids. These sister chromatids are held together at the centromere until they separate during cell division. Therefore, sister chromatids are the correct answer for what is joined by a centromere.

    Rate this question:

  • 19. 

    Which of the following shows anaphase?

    Correct Answer
    A.
    Explanation
    Anaphase is the stage of mitosis or meiosis in which the sister chromatids or homologous chromosomes separate and move towards opposite poles of the cell. This process is crucial for the equal distribution of genetic material to the daughter cells. In anaphase, the microtubules of the spindle apparatus shorten, pulling the chromosomes apart and elongating the cell. The correct answer to the question would be a visual representation or description of this process, showing the separation and movement of chromosomes towards opposite poles.

    • The cell is the basic unit of structure and function in living things.

    • All living things are made up of 1 or more cells.

    • Cells come from previously existing cells.

    • The nucleus is the control center of the cell.

    • Viruses are not cells.

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. The cell is the basic unit of structure and function in living things.
    A. All living things are made up of 1 or more cells.
    A. Cells come from previously existing cells.
    Explanation
    The cell theory consists of three main ideas. First, the cell is the basic unit of structure and function in living things. This means that all living organisms are composed of cells and that cells perform all the necessary functions for life. Second, all living things are made up of one or more cells. This implies that cells are the building blocks of life and are responsible for the structure and organization of organisms. Third, cells come from previously existing cells. This principle states that cells can only arise from pre-existing cells through cell division. These three ideas form the foundation of the cell theory and are crucial in understanding the structure and function of living organisms.

  • 24. 

    What happens when a cell gets bigger? Choose 2.

    • Surface area increases faster than the volume.

    • Volume increases faster than the surface area.

    • The SA:V increases.

    • The SA:V ratio decreases.

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Volume increases faster than the surface area.
    A. The SA:V ratio decreases.
    Explanation
    When a cell gets bigger, the volume increases faster than the surface area. This is because volume is calculated by cubing the length, while surface area is calculated by squaring the length. As a result, the increase in volume is more significant compared to the increase in surface area. Additionally, as the cell grows, the SA:V ratio decreases. This is because the surface area increases at a slower rate than the volume, causing the ratio of surface area to volume to decrease.

    • Asexual reproduction

    • Growth

    • Replacement of worn-out cells

    • Small SA:V

    • Large SA:V

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Growth
    A. Replacement of worn-out cells
    A. Large SA:V
    Explanation
    Cell division is necessary for growth in multicellular eukaryotic organisms because it allows for the production of more cells, which leads to an increase in overall size. Additionally, cell division is important for the replacement of worn-out cells, as old cells can be replaced with new ones through the process of cell division. Lastly, having a large surface area to volume ratio (SA:V) is advantageous for efficient nutrient exchange and waste removal, and cell division can help maintain a large SA:V ratio by producing more cells.

    Which cell has the largest size?

    • Bacteria

    • Animal cell

    • Plant cell

    • Virus

    Correct Answer
    A. Plant cell
    Explanation
    The plant cell has the largest size compared to the other options listed. Plant cells are typically larger than bacteria and animal cells because they have additional structures such as a cell wall, central vacuole, and chloroplasts. These structures contribute to the overall size of the plant cell, making it larger than the other options. Viruses, on the other hand, are much smaller than cells and cannot be considered as a contender for the largest size.
