mitosis; budding

mitosis; meiosis

budding; meiosis

meiosis; mitosis

9- In plant cells, a _____________________ develops at the midpoint between the two groups of chromosomes in a dividing cell, forming the wall between the two new daughter cells.

kinetochore

cleavage furrow

centromere

cell plate

10- Which term best describes how bacteria describe:

binary fission

meiosis

mitosis

diffusion

Answer 1

Ans 5: 46 Chroosomes (23 pairs) ---Scientifically proven and known fact.

Ans 6: Gene ---Fundamental unit of heredity, it codes for the proteins and determines the phenotype.

Ans 7: True ---M phase follows the interphase.

Ans 8: mitosis, mieiosis ---Mitosis is cell divison wherein clones are produced, meiosis is cell division which results into progeny that are not genetically identical.

Ans 9: cell plate ---plate that develops during cell division in plants, in the way similar ot that described in the problem.
