FINAL JEOPARDY

Question 1Question 1

Cells process that most cells go through at least once in their lifetime.

mitosis

Check Answer

Question 2Question 2

Why are most cells microscopic?

Smaller size allows necessary materials to get where they’re needed.

Check Answer

Question 3Question 3

What happens to chromosomes before the start of mitosis and name the phase it happens in.

Chromosomes double, replicate; interphase

Check Answer

Name the 1st step of mitosis and describe what happens to chromosomes?

Prophase; chromosomes coil and start moving to the center of the cell; attach to spindle fibers.

Check Answer

Question 4Question 4

In step 3, fibers pull the chromatids towards the _____, but only in animal cells.

Centrioles, opposite sides of cell

Check Answer

Question 10Question 10

Name two benefits of mitosis.

Replaces cells, produces new cells

Check Answer

What is the importance of mitosis as a means of cell reproduction?
