GCSE EDEXCEL BIOLOGY (9-1) EXAM
QUESTIONS WITH ASSURED
ANSWERS
Multicellular - ANSOrganisms made of many cells
Cell cycle - ANSSeries of events that cells go through as they grow and divide
Interphase - ANSStage of the cell cycle where the cell grows, performs its normal functions, and
prepares for division
Mitosis - ANSStage of cell cycle where the nucleus divides
(growth and repair of body cells)
Diploid - ANS2 sets of chromosomes
Haploid - ANSA single set of unpaired chromosomes
X - ANSDuring interphase, each chromosome is copied and the copies remain attached forming _-
shapes
first - ANSProphase is the _____ stage in mitosis
second - ANSMetaphase is the ______ stage in mitosis
third - ANSAnaphase is the _____ stage in mitosis
fourth - ANSTelophase is the ______ stage in mitosis
fifth - ANSCytokinesis is the _____ stage in mitosis
, DNA replication - ANSthe process of making a copy of DNA; during interphase
Daughter - ANSIn mitosis, the cell splits to form 2 ________ cells, identical to the parent cell
Prophase - ANSIn mitosis, the nucleus starts to break and spindle fibres appear
Metaphase - ANSIn mitosis, the chromosomes are lined up on the spindle fibres across the middles
of the cell
Anaphase - ANSIn mitosis, the chromosome copies are separated and moved to either end of the cell
on the spindle fibres
Telophase - ANSIn mitosis, a membrane forms around each set of chromosomes to form nuclei
Cytokinesis - ANSIn mitosis, a cell surface membrane forms to separate the two cells
Asexual Reproduction - ANSProcess by which a single parent reproduces by itself
Cancer cells - ANScells that grow and divide continuously at an unregulated pace
Tumours - ANSGroups of cancer cells
Variation - ANSAny difference between individuals of the same species
Little - ANSAsexual Reproduction results in ______ variation
Clones - ANSAsexual Reproduction produce offspring that are clones
Identical - ANSMitosis produces to _________ daughter cells
Relies - ANSAsexual Reproduction relies/doesn't rely on mitosis
