1) SEE FIRST PHOTO PLEASE


2) Which of the following statements correctly identifies the difference between plant and animal cell division?

a. Both plant and animal cells undergo mitosis and cytokinesis, but they lack the interphase.

b. The cell walls of plants prevent the process of cytokinesis.

c. Plant cells lack centromeres, and they form a cell wall to produce two daughter cells.

d. Plants cells lack centrioles, and they form a cell plate during cytokinesis.


3) Uncontrolled and rapid cell division due to a mutation in DNA is called

a. Polyploidy

b. Trisomy 21

8) Colchicine is a medication most commonly used to treat inflammatory arthritis called gout. Colchicine interferes with the functioning of the spindle apparatus during mitosis by preventing the chromatids from lining up in the centre of the cell. In a cell, the spindle fibres are used to control the movement and segregation of chromosomes during division.

Which stage of mitosis is affected by Colchicine?


9) Chemotherapy is a form of drug therapy given to cancer patients. One effect of chemotherapy drugs is that it stops DNA replication from occurring. If DNA cannot replicate, the cells cannot divide properly.

The stage of the cell cycle most affected by drugs that prevent DNA replication is __(1)___ and the type of division that cancer cells use to divide is _____(2)____.

a.               Stage (1)                                              Type of Division (2)
                     S                                                                Mitosis

b.             Stage (1)                                               Type of Division (2)
                     S                                                                 Meiosis

c.             Stage (1)                                            Type of Division (2)
                    G1                                                                Mitosis

d.           Stage (1)                                                Type of Division (2)
                   G1                                                                 Meiosis
