  3. What are the two main purposes of mitosis in living organisms?

  4. Name the phase of mitosis where the chromosomes align in the center of the cell.

  5. What is the result of mitosis in terms of cell quantity?

  6. How many stages are there in mitosis, and can you name them?

  7. Which phase is known as the "resting phase," where the cell prepares for division?

  8. What happens to the nuclear membrane during mitosis?

  9. What type of cells undergo mitosis? Give an example.

  10. Why is mitosis important for growth and repair in organisms?

Answers

  1. Mitosis is the process of cell division that results in two identical daughter cells.

  2. The DNA replicates during the S phase of interphase.

  3. The two main purposes of mitosis are growth and repair of tissues.

  4. The phase of mitosis where chromosomes align in the center of the cell is metaphase.

  5. The result of mitosis is that there are double the number of cells; one cell divides into two.

  6. There are five stages in mitosis: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, and cytokinesis.

  7. The phase known as the "resting phase" is interphase.

  8. During mitosis, the nuclear membrane breaks down during prophase and reforms during telophase.

  9. Body cells undergo mitosis; for example, skin cells.

  10. Mitosis is important for growth and repair because it helps to create new cells to replace damaged or dead ones.
