Cell cycle

Mitosis

100

What are the 5 phases of mitosis

Prophase, Prometaphase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase

200

In which stage of mitosis are sister chromatids separated and are pulled to opposite poles 

Anaphase

300

What is the product of mitosis?

Two genetically identical daughter cells

Cell Cycle

100

What are the two main phases of the cell cycle

Interphase and Mitosis

200

What is the G₀ phase?

A resting or non-dividing stage of the cell cycle. In this phase, a cell is not actively preparing to divide, and it has exited the regular cell cycle. Some cells, after the G₁ phase, enter G₀ instead of continuing to S phase.  

300

What are the stages in interphase?

• G1 Phase (Gap 1)
• S Phase (Synthesis)
• G2 Phase (Gap 2)

Binary Fission

100

Define Binary fission

Binary fission is the process by which a single organism duplicates its genetic material (DNA) and then divides into two identical daughter cells.

200

Name the steps in Binary Fission

1. DNA Replication

2. Chromosome Segregation

3. Cell Elongation

4. Septum Formation

5. Cell Division (Cytokinesis)

300

Where does replication of the bacterial DNA begin?

The point of origin

Abnormal Cell Division(Cancer)

100

What is cancer?

Cancer is a disease caused by the uncontrolled growth and division of abnormal cells in the body. These cells bypass the normal regulatory mechanisms that keep healthy cell growth in check.

200

What are the three types of tumours?

Benign, Malignant and Metastatic

300

Differentiate between malignant and metastatic tumours

A malignant tumour is a cancerous tumor that can grow rapidly, invade nearby tissues, and damage organs. A metastatic tumour is a tumor that has spread from the original (primary) site to distant organs
