A) microtubulere
, B) centrosome
C) centromere
D) kinetochore - ANSWER B) centrosome
8) In human and many other eukaryotic species' cells, the nuclear membrane has to
disappear to permit _____.
A) cytokinesis
B) the attachment of microtubules to kinetochores
C) the splitting of the centrosomes
D) the disassembly of the nucleolus - ANSWER B) the attachment of microtubules
to kinetochores
9) The mitotic spindle is a microtubular structure that is involved in _____.
A) splitting of the cell (cytokinesis) following mitosis
B) triggering the compaction and condensation of chromosomes
C) dissolving the nuclear membrane
D) separation of sister chromatids - ANSWER D) separation of sister chromatids
10) Metaphase is characterized by _____.
A) aligning of chromosomes on the equator
B) splitting of the centromeres
C) cytokinesis
D) separation of sister chromatids - ANSWER A) aligning of chromosomes on the
equator
11) Kinetochore microtubules assist in the process of splitting centromeres by
_____.
A) using motor proteins to split the centromere at specific arginine residues
B) creating tension by pulling toward opposite poles
C) sliding past each other like actin filaments
D) phosphorylating the centromere, thereby changing its conformation - ANSWER
B) creating tension by pulling toward opposite poles
12) Some cells have several nuclei per cell. How could such multinucleated cells be
explained?
A) The cell underwent repeated cytokinesis but no mitosis.
B) The cell underwent repeated mitosis with simultaneous cytokinesis.
C) The cell underwent repeated mitosis, but cytokinesis did not occur.
D) The cell had multiple S phases before it entered mitosis. - ANSWER C) The cell
underwent repeated mitosis, but cytokinesis did not occur.
13) How is plant cell cytokinesis different from animal cell cytokinesis?
A) The contractile filaments found in plant cells are structures composed of
carbohydrates; the cleavage furrow in animal cells is composed of contractile
phospholipids.
B) Plant cells deposit vesicles containing cell-wall building blocks on the metaphase
plate; animal cells form a cleavage furrow.
C) The structural proteins of plant cells separate the two cells; in animal cells, a cell
membrane separates the two daughter cells.
