Prophase

Answer 1

The phase of mitosis you are describing is Anaphase. During this phase, the sister chromatids are pulled apart and moved toward opposite poles of the cell by the spindle fibers attached to the centrioles.

Answer 2

Answer 3

The phase you are describing is Interphase. During Interphase, the cell grows, replicates its DNA, and prepares for division.

Answer 5

The phase of mitosis you are describing is Metaphase. During Metaphase, the chromosomes line up along the midline (equatorial plane) of the cell.

Answer 6

What phase of Mitosis is this? Sister chromatids start to form two separate groups and nuclear envelopes begin to form.

Anaphase

Answer 7

The phase of mitosis you are describing is Telophase. During Telophase, the sister chromatids reach the opposite poles of the cell, start to de-condense, and nuclear envelopes begin to reform around each group of chromosomes.

Answer 8

Mitosis is the division of the ____________ and cytokinesis is the division of the _____________.(2 points)
Responses

cell, chromosomes
cell, chromosomes

chromosomes, centrisomes
chromosomes, centrisomes

nucleus, cytoplasm
nucleus, cytoplasm

cytoplasm, nucleus

Answer 9

Mitosis is the division of the nucleus and cytokinesis is the division of the cytoplasm. So the correct response is:

nucleus, cytoplasm.

Answer 10

Adult stem cells are the best option for healing the widest variety of diseases.(1 point)
Responses

True
True

False

Answer 11

False. While adult stem cells have the potential to heal certain diseases and have advantages such as ethical considerations and reduced risk of tumor formation compared to embryonic stem cells, they are often limited in the types of cells they can become, typically differentiating into cell types from the tissue they were derived from. Pluripotent stem cells (like induced pluripotent stem cells) may have a broader range of applications for healing various diseases due to their ability to differentiate into any type of cell.
