During meiosis, the sister chromatids separate during:
(1) Anaphase II
(2) Anaphase I
(3) The S phase
(4) Synapsis
Chromosomes decondense into diffuse chromatin:
1. At the end of telophase
2. At the beginning of prophase
3. At the end of interphase
4. At the end of metaphase
Which of the following does not occur during mitotic prophase?
(1) Disappearance of the nuclear envelope
(2) Chromosome condensation
(3) Migration of centrosomes towards the cell poles
(4) Synapsis of homologous chromosomes
Which of the following is not true for sister chromatids?
(1) They arise by replication during S phase
(2) They segregate from each other during each mitotic anaphase
(3) The usually contain identical versions of the same genetic information
(4) They segregate from each other during meiosis I
Which of the following statements is True?
(1) Cell plate represents the middle lamella between the walls of two adjacents cells
(2) At the time of cytokinesis, organelles like mitochondria and plastids get distributed between the daughter cells
(3) Cytokinesis in plant cell is centrifugal and takes place by cell-plate formation while animal cells by furrowing / cleavage and is centripetal
(4) All are correct
Cytokinesis in animal cell takes place by _______; in _______ direction while in plant cell by _______; in _______ direction:
(1) Furrowing, centrifugal, cell plate, centripetal
(2) Furrowing, centripetal, cell plate, Centrifugal
(3) Cell plate, centrifugal, furrowing, centripetal
(4) Cell plate, centripetal, furrowing, centrifugal
Chromosome number is reduced during meiosis because the process consists of:
(1) Two cell divisions without any chromosome replication
(2) A single cell division without any chromosome replication
(3) Two cell divisions in which half of the chromosomes are destroyed
(4) Two cell divisions and only a single round of chromosome replication
A reduction step during meiosis is important because:
(1) It returns the chromosome number to normal before fertilization
(2) There is a mechanism for this
(3) Only one copy of each chromosome is necessary
(4) Otherwise chromosome copies would double each fertilization
Plant cells do not divided their cytoplasm by forming a furrow in cell membrane like animal cells rather they divide by cell plate because
1. | Plant cell do not have centrioles |
2. | Cell wall formation beings with formation of cell plate |
3. | Cell plate represents middle lamella between the walls of two adjacent cells |
4. | Plant cells are enclosed by a relatively inextensible wall |
The end of which of the following mark's completion of Mitosis?
1. Cytokinesis
2. Karyokinesis
3. Interkinesis
4. Telophase
