Cell cycle
start
question 1/10
The three stages of the cell cycle are Interphase, Mitosis and Cytokinesis
False
True
question 1/10
Correct!
The cell cycle involves three stages: Interphase, Mitosis and Cytokinesis. The cell spends 90% of it's life in Interphase and only 10% in Mitosis. Mitosis involves PMAT (The four steps: Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase and Telophase).
next
question 2/10
In which phase is the cell growing in size and replicating DNA in preparation for cell division?
Cytokinesis
Mitosis
Interphase
question 2/10
Well done!
Interphase is the first stage of the cell cycle. DNA is in the form of chromatin (loose genetic material). The cell grows in size and DNA replicates.
next
question 3/10
In which phase of Mitosis are the chromosomes being pulled (away) apart by spindle fibers from the centrioles to opposite ends of the cell?
Prophase
Metaphase
Anaphase
Telophase
question 3/10
Correct!
During anaphase, the centromere holding the sister chromatids (chromosome) together is broken, and the chromatids are pulled by the spindle fibers to opposite ends of the cell.
next
question 4/10
Which phase of mitosis does this image represent?
Prophase
Metaphase
Anaphase
question 4/10
Well done!
Metaphase is when the chromosomes align in the middle of the cell. The spindle fibers are connected to the centromere holding the sister chromatids together.
NEXT
question 5/10
Which image represents Interphase?
question 5/10
Correct!
During interphase, the nucleus is still present, and DNA is in the form of chromatin (loose genetic material).
next
question 6/10
During prophase, the nuclear membrane disappears and DNA condenses from chromatin into chromosomes.
False
True
question 6/10
Well done!
Prophase is the first step of Mitosis. During prophase the nuclear membrane disappears, and DNA wraps around histone proteins condensing until a chromosome is formed.
next
question 7/10
During which stage does the nuclear membrane reform around the daughter chromosomes?
Interphase
Cytokinesis
Telophase
question 7/10
Correct!
Telophase means two! During telophase the nuclear membrane begins to reform around each set of daughter chromosomes.
next
question 8/10
During which phase of the cell cycle does the cytoplasm pinch in the middle and split into two daughter cells?
Telophase
Mitosis
Cytokinesis
Interphase
question 8/10
Well done!
Cytokinesis is the final step in the cell cycle. The cytoplasm pinches in the middle and then splits forming two identical daughter cells. After cytokinesis, the daughter cells move into the first step of the cell cycle: Interphase.
next
question 9/10
Which acronym is shorthand for the entire cell cycle?
PMAT
IPMATC
PMATC
question 9/10
Correct!
Anacronyms are a great study tool! IPMATC stands for all three stages of the cell cycle: Interphase, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase (Mitosis), Cytokinesis! PMAT: great way to remember the four stages of Mitosis
next
question 10/10
What phase of Mitosis is represented in the image?
Prophase
Metaphase
Anaphase
question 10/10
Good job!
Hit and sunk!
