Q. No.The cells in the quiescent stage [G0] phase of the cell cycle:
1.
exit from the S phase
2.
continue the events of cell cycle and complete the division
3.
are metabolically active
4.
cannot ever proliferate
Mitosis is also called ‘equational division’ because:
| 1. | the number of chromosomes in both daughter cells are the same |
| 2. | the sum of the number of chromosomes in two daughter cells is equal to the number of chromosomes in the parent cell |
| 3. | each progeny cell receives only one set of chromosomes from the parent cell |
| 4. | the number of chromosomes in the parent and the progeny cells is the same |
The phase of the cell cycle during which DNA replication takes place is:
| 1. | G1 phase | 2. | S phase |
| 3. | G2 phase | 4. | M phase |
The correct chronology of stages of karyokinesis in mitosis is:
1. Prophase – Anaphase – Metaphase – Telophase
2. Prophase – Metaphase – Anaphase – Telophase
3. Prophase – Metaphase – Telophase – Anaphase
4. Telophase – Anaphase – Metaphase – Prophase
The two asters together with spindle fibers form the:
1. Centrosome
2. Mitotic apparatus
3. Kinetochore
4. Chiasmata
Prophase of mitosis is not characterized by:
1. condensation of chromatin
2. migration of centrosomes to opposite poles
3. formation of mitotic apparatus
4. pairing of homologous chromosomes
Onion root tip has 16 chromosomes in each cell. How many chromosomes will the cell respectively have at G1 phase, after S phase and after M phase?
| 1. | 16, 32, 16 | 2. | 16, 32, 8 |
| 3. | 16, 16, 8 | 4. | 16, 16, 16 |
Cells at the end of prophase, when viewed under the microscope, show:
| 1. | Nuclear envelope | 2. | Nucleolus |
| 3. | Mitochondria | 4. | Endoplasmic reticulum |
The cell expected to go through the events of cell cycle in the least amount of time would be:
| 1. Epithelial cell in humans | 2. Neuron in humans |
| 3. Yeast cell | 4. Escherichia coli |
