In which phase do cells rest? (1 point)
metaphase prophase anaphase interphase
The correct answer is interphase.
Which of the following correctly orders events during mitosis?
(1 point)
The mitotic spindle attaches to chromosomes. Microtubules organize the chromosomes. The nuclear membrane dissolves.
The nuclear membrane dissolves. The mitotic spindle attaches to chromosomes. Microtubules organize the chromosomes.
Microtubules organize the chromosomes. The nuclear membrane dissolves. The mitotic spindle attaches to chromosomes.
The nuclear membrane dissolves. Microtubules organize the chromosomes. The mitotic spindle attaches to chromosomes.
The correct order of events during mitosis is:
1. The nuclear membrane dissolves.
2. Microtubules organize the chromosomes.
3. The mitotic spindle attaches to chromosomes.
Therefore, the correct answer is: The nuclear membrane dissolves. Microtubules organize the chromosomes. The mitotic spindle attaches to chromosomes.
In what phase of mitosis do chromosomes split into sister chromatids? (1 point)
cytokinesis prophase telophase anaphase
In anaphase, chromosomes split into sister chromatids and are pulled towards opposite ends of the cell. Therefore, the correct answer is anaphase.
Which type of stem cell is able to differentiate into any cell type, including extraembryonic placental cells? (1 point)
embryonic cells totipotent cells multipotent cells pluripotent cells
The type of stem cell that is able to differentiate into any cell type, including extraembryonic placental cells, is pluripotent cells.
Which correctly describes sister chromatids? (1 point) They are part of the lined-up chromosomes in
mitosis.
They form during metaphase when DNA is being replicated.
They make up the mitotic spindle within the cell.
They are the daughter cells that form during cell replication.
