The Intriguing Cell Cycle Pie Chart: Unraveling the Mysteries of Mitosis
Which of these phases encompasses all of the stages of mitosis?
A pie chart of the cell cycle that consists of two parts. The bigger part of this pie chart is labeled C and comprises three sectors. The second sector is labeled D. The smaller part of the pie chart is labeled A and comprises two sectors. The first sector, which is closer to the end of part C, is marked E, and the second sector is marked B.
Answer:
E
The answer to this question is E. E represents the phase that encompasses all of the stages of mitosis, including prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
During _____ both the contents of the nucleus and the cytoplasm are divided.
During _____ both the contents of the nucleus and the cytoplasm are divided.
Answer:
Mitotic phase
The phase during which both the contents of the nucleus and the cytoplasm are divided is the mitotic phase. This phase includes the division of the nucleus (mitosis) and the division of the cytoplasm (cytokinesis).
During _____ the cell grows and replicates both its organelles and its chromosomes.
During _____ the cell grows and replicates both its organelles and its chromosomes.
Answer:
Interphase
During Interphase, the cell grows in size and replicates both its organelles and its chromosomes. This phase is essential for preparing the cell for division during the subsequent mitotic phase.
