Question # 12
DNA replication occurs ______________.In prophase of both mitosis and meiosisIn metaphase of meiosis onlyIn the S phase of interphase in both somatic
and reproductive cellsIn the cytokinesis portion of the cell’s life cycle
Question # 13
At which point in the cell cycle do centrosomes begin to move apart to two poles of the cell in a dividing human liver cell?S phaseProphaseMetaphaseAnaphase
Question # 14
One event occurring during prophase is ___________.The synthesis of a new nuclear envelope.CytokinesisThe beginning of the formation of a spindle
apparatusDivision of the centromere

Question # 19
During binary fission in a bacterium ____________.The 2 DNA molecules divide in half to form 4
DNA fragmentsThe origins of replication move apartThe 2 DNA molecules attach to the centriolesThe 2 DNA molecules break up into plasmids
Question # 20
The function(s) of meiosis is (are) ______________.Decreases the chromosome number to haploidIntroduce genetic variability into the daughter
cellsEnsure that each daughter cell get a single
copy of each cell’s chromosomesAll of the above
