23

During sexual reproduction, the zygote is formed when a male gamete fuses with a female gamete. How many chromosomes does the zygote cell contain? n 4n 2n 3n

2n

"Homologous pairs pull apart and move to opposite ends of the cell." This event occurs in which of the following phases of meiosis? Prophase I Metaphase I Telophase I Anaphase I

Anaphase I

Which of the following is the function of meiotic cell division? Formation of sex cells or gametes Growth Replacement of worn-out cells Repairing the cells

Formation of sex cells or gametes

Which of the following is correct about the difference between sexual and asexual reproduction? The process of sexual reproduction takes longer than asexual reproduction. In asexual reproduction, daughter cells are genetically different from parent cells. In sexual reproduction, daughter cells are genetically identical to parent cells. In asexual reproduction, diploid parent cells produce diploid daughter cells. In sexual reproduction, diploid parent cells produce haploid daughter cells that combine to form diploid offspring. In asexual reproduction, there is the involvement of two parents. In sexual reproduction, there is an involvement of one parent only.

In asexual reproduction, diploid parent cells produce diploid daughter cells. In sexual reproduction, diploid parent cells produce haploid daughter cells that combine to form diploid offspring.

Which of the following statements is TRUE about the interphase of mitosis? It is the shortest phase of the mitotic cell cycle Crossing over takes place in this phase In this phase, the sister chromatids begin to separate from one another In this phase, the cell grows and copies its DNA before moving into mitosis

In this phase, the cell grows and copies its DNA before moving into mitosis
