Miller and Levine Biology Chapter 10 Review Miller and Levine Biology

The rate at which materials enter and leave through the cell membrane depends on the cell’s _______________. surface area volume weight mass

The process of cell division results in ______________. sister chromatids two daughter cells mitosis unregulated growth

Sister chromatids are attached to each other at an area called the _____________. chromosome spindle centromere centriole

If a cell has 4 chromosomes, how many chromosomes will each of its daughter cells have after mitosis? 8 12 4 16

The phase of mitosis during which the chromosomes become visible and the spindle fibers form is the ______________. prophase metaphase anaphase telophase

During ______________, the chromosomes line up across the center of the cell. prophase metaphase anaphase telophase

At the beginning of cell division, a chromosome consists of two _____________. centromeres centrioles chromatids spindles

The timing of the cell cycle in eukaryotic cells is believed to be controlled by a group of closely related proteins called _____________. chromatids centromeres centrioles cyclins

In the cell cycle, external regulators direct cells to __________________. speed up or slow down the cell cycle remain unchanged proceed and then stop the cell cycle grow uncontrollably

_____________ is an in between phase where a cell goes through a period of growth. prophase interphase telophase metaphase

Which of the following is NOT a phase of mitosis? prophase interphase telophase metaphase

In the cell cycle, the period between cell divisions is called ____________. prophase interphase telophase metaphase

Division of the cytoplasm is called ______________. centromere cell cycle cytokinesis telophase

Uncontrolled cell division occurs in ____________. cancer mitosis cytokinesis cyclin

The _________ is a mictrotubule structure that helps separate the chromosomes. cytoplasm spindle centriole none of the above

The 3 steps of interphase are G1 Cells increase in size and do most of their growing. S Replication of DNA molecules. G2 Organelles and molecules needed for cell division are made.
