Q. No.The complex formed by a pair of synapsed homologous chromosomes is called
| 1. | Equatorial plate | 2. | Kinetochore |
| 3. | Bivalent | 4. | Axoneme |
Arrange the following events of meiosis in correct sequence
(a) Crossing over
(b) Synapsis
(c) Terminalisation of chiasmata
(d) Disappearance of nucleolus
| 1. | (b), (c), (d), (a) | 2. | (b), (a), (d), (c) |
| 3. | (b), (a), (c), (d) | 4. | (a), (b), (c), (d) |
Match the following with respect to meiosis:
| (a) | Zygotene | (i) | Terminalization |
| (b) | Pachytene | (ii) | Chiasmata |
| (c) | Diplotene | (iii) | Crossing over |
| (d) | Diakinesis | (iv) | Synapsis |
Select the correct option from the following:
| (a) | (b) | (c) | (d) | |
| 1. | (iv) | (iii) | (ii) | (i) |
| 2. | (i) | (ii) | (iv) | (iii) |
| 3. | (ii) | (iv) | (iii) | (i) |
| 4. | (iii) | (iv) | (i) | (ii) |
Amount of cellular DNA increases during:
| 1. | Cytokinesis | 2. | Fertilisation |
| 3. | Mutation | 4. | Respiration |
What is correct?
1. DNA content becomes double during G1- phase
2. Duration of interphase is short as compared to M-phase
3. G2-phase follows mitotic phase
4. DNA-replication occurs in S-phase
Given below is a schematic break-up of the phases/stages of cell cycle. Which one of the following is the correct indication of the stage/phase in the cell cycle?

Identify the correct statement with regard to phase (Gap 1) of interphase.
1. The reorganisation of all cell components takes place.
2. The cell is metabolically active, grows but does not replicate its DNA
3. Nuclear division takes place
4. DNA synthesis or replication takes place.
Some dividing cells exit the cell cycle and enter the vegetative inactive stage. This is called the quiescent stage G0. This process occurs at the end of:
| 1. | G1 phase | 2. | S phase |
| 3. | G2 phase | 4. | M phase |
Match the following events that occur in their respective phases of cell cycle and select the correct option
| (a) | G1 phase | (i) | Cell grows and organelle duplication |
| (b) | S phase | (ii) | DNA replication and chromosome duplication |
| (c) | G2 phase | (iii) | Cytoplasmic growth |
| (d) | Metaphase in M-phase | (iv) | Alignment of chromosomes |
| (a) | (b) | (c) | (d) | |
| 1. | (ii) | (iii) | (iv) | (i) |
| 2. | (iii) | (iv) | (i) | (ii) |
| 3. | (iv) | (i) | (ii) | (iii) |
| 4. | (i) | (ii) | (iii) | (iv) |
| 1. | Disappearance of nucleolus | 2. | Chromosome movement |
| 3. | Synapsis | 4. | Spindle fibres |
