What is the total number of daughter cells produced at the end of meiosis II?

Four haploid daughter cells.

Which phase of the cell cycle is characterized by DNA synthesis?

S phase.

True or False: Cytokinesis in plant cells occurs by the formation of a furrow.

False. Cytokinesis in plant cells occurs by the formation of a cell plate.

Riddle: I am a division that halves the chromosome number, crucial for gamete formation. What am I?

Meiosis

Fill in the blanks: The process of cell division that results in two identical daughter cells is called ______.

Mitosis

What phase follows anaphase during mitosis?

Telophase.

True or False: The G1 phase of the cell cycle includes DNA replication.

False. DNA replication occurs during the S phase.

During which phase of meiosis does crossing over occur?

Pachytene.

What are the four stages of karyokinesis in mitosis?

Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase.

Riddle: I am the phase where chromosomes align at the equator, preparing for separation. What am I?

Metaphase

Fill in the blanks: The two main phases of the cell cycle are ______ and M phase.

Interphase

What is the name for the inactive stage of the cell cycle where cells exit G1?

Quiescent stage (G0).

True or False: Mitosis is used for both growth and reproduction in organisms.

True.

How many chromosomes does the cell have at G1 phase if it has 16 chromosomes at M phase?

16 chromosomes.

Riddle: I am the phase where nuclear division occurs but not cytoplasmic division. What am I?

Karyokinesis

What happens during the telophase of mitosis?

Nuclear envelope reforms and chromosomes decondense.

True or False: In animals, haploid cells can undergo mitosis.

False. Mitosis occurs primarily in diploid cells.

During which phase do homologous chromosomes separate in meiosis?

Anaphase I.

What is the significance of mitosis in multicellular organisms?

It is essential for growth, repair, and maintaining the nucleo-cytoplasmic ratio.

Fill in the blanks: The phase of the cell cycle where the cell grows and carries out normal metabolism is called ______.

G1 phase

What is formed during the cytokinesis of plant cells?

Cell plate.

True or False: The chromosome number is doubled during the S phase.

False

No, the chromosome number does not double in the S phase. While DNA replication occurs during the S phase, resulting in each chromosome having two identical sister chromatids, the number of chromosomes remains the same.

Riddle: I am the stage where sister chromatids are pulled apart and move to opposite poles. What am I?

Anaphase 

What enzyme mediates the process of crossing over?
a) Ligase
b) DNA polymerase
c) Recombinase
d) Helicase

c) Recombinase

The X-shaped structures formed during diplotene are called:
a) Centromeres
b) Chiasmata
c) Synaptonemes
d) Tetrads

b) Chiasmata

Terminalisation of chiasmata occurs in which substage of Prophase I?
a) Pachytene
b) Zygotene
c) Diakinesis
d) Diplotene

c) Diakinesis

Structure formed by synapsed homologous chromosomes is ________.

Bivalent
