division, each chromosomes replicates or duplicates its genetic material. The
products are connected by a centromere and are called;
a)
Sister chromosomes
b)
Homologous chromosomes
c)
Non-sister chromatid
d)
Sister chromatids
7. The process of
mitosis ensure that;

A pinching off the cell membrane to divide the cell
c)
The formation of the cell plate in the the
cytoplasm

10. Which event
distinguishes meiosis from mitosis?
a)
Condensation of chromosomes
b)
Loss of the nuclear membrane
c)
Formation of metaphase plate

Telophase
12. Which of the
following distinguishes meiosis from mitosis?
a)
The chromosome number is reduced

parent cell

chromosomes of the cell duplicate during interphase. When do the chromosomes duplicate
for meiosis?

Homologous chromosomes forms pairs during
meiosis but not mitosis

would you suggest for the fact that the total DNA content of each daughter cell
is reduced during meiosis?
a)
Chromosomes do not duplicate during the interphase
before meiosis I
b)
Chromosomes do not duplicate between meiosis I and II
c)
Half of the chromosomes from each gamete are
broken
d)
Sister chromatids separates during anaphase of meiosis
I
