A. Cell plate
B. Cleavage furrow
C. Spindle fiber
D. Cell wall
Answer: In animal cells, a cleavage furrow forms at the equator and deepens until the cell divides into two.
A. Cleavage furrow
B. Cell plate
C. Contractile ring
D. Centriole
Answer: Plant cells divide by forming a cell plate at the equator, which grows outward and becomes the new cell wall.
A. Vesicles derived from the Golgi apparatus
B. Mitochondria
C. Ribosomes
D. Chloroplasts
Answer: Vesicles from the Golgi apparatus fuse at the equator to form the cell plate in plant cells.
A. Microtubules
B. Microfilaments
C. Intermediate filaments
D. Ribosomes
Answer: A ring of actin microfilaments contracts beneath the cell membrane, pinching the cell into two.
A. They lack mitochondria
B. They have a rigid cell wall
C. They lack a nucleus
D. They do not undergo mitosis
Answer: The rigid cell wall of plant cells prevents pinching, so they divide by forming a cell plate from the centre outward.
A. Cytokinesis followed by karyokinesis
B. Karyokinesis followed by cytokinesis
C. Both occur simultaneously
D. Only cytokinesis occurs
Answer: Karyokinesis (nuclear division) occurs first, followed by cytokinesis (cytoplasmic division).
A. Plants only
B. Animals only
C. Both plants and animals
D. Neither plants nor animals
Answer: Centrioles are found in animal cells, where they help organize spindle fibers during division.
A. With the help of centrioles
B. Without centrioles
C. By the cell plate
D. By the nucleolus
Answer: Plant cells lack centrioles; their spindle fibers are formed without them.
A. Cell wall
B. Centriole
C. Nucleus
D. Cell membrane
Answer: Plant cells lack centrioles, which are present in animal cells and take part in spindle formation.
A. Centrioles
B. Microtubule organizing centers
C. Ribosomes
D. Lysosomes
Answer: Without centrioles, plant cells use other microtubule organizing centers to form the spindle during division.
A. increases the number of cells
B. halves the number of cells
C. produces gametes
D. reduces chromosome number
Answer: Growth occurs by the mitotic division of somatic cells, which increases the number of cells in the body.
A. Meiosis
B. Mitosis
C. Fertilization
D. Apoptosis
Answer: Damaged tissues are repaired as surrounding cells divide by mitosis and replace the lost cells.
A. Hydra by budding
B. Flowering plants by seeds
C. Humans by fertilization
D. Birds by laying eggs
Answer: In Hydra, new individuals are produced by budding, which involves mitotic divisions of cells.
A. Different from the parent
B. Identical to the parent and to each other
C. Haploid
D. Half the size of the parent
Answer: Mitosis produces two genetically identical daughter cells, also called clones.
A. Skin cells
B. Nerve cells
C. Liver cells
D. Blood cells
Answer: Mature nerve cells (neurons) enter the G0 phase and generally do not divide.
A. Somatic (body) cells
B. Only gametes
C. Only germ cells
D. Only zygotes
Answer: Mitosis occurs in somatic cells, while meiosis occurs in reproductive cells.
A. undergo meiosis to form new cells
B. divide by mitosis to replace dead cells
C. undergo apoptosis
D. fuse to form gametes
Answer: Skin cells near the wound divide rapidly by mitosis, producing new cells that replace the damaged ones.
A. Apoptosis
B. Cancer
C. Fertilization
D. Gamete formation
Answer: When cell division is not properly controlled, cells divide excessively, forming tumors and leading to cancer.
A. halves the chromosomes
B. produces diploid daughter cells
C. reduces the chromosome number to n
D. involves two divisions
Answer: Since mitosis produces two diploid daughter cells, the chromosome number remains constant generation after generation.
A. Replication points
B. Checkpoints
C. Centromeres
D. Synapses
Answer: Checkpoints (such as G1/S and G2/M) monitor the cell cycle and ensure the cell divides only under proper conditions.
