  5. Underline the correct words in the bracket.


  Cytokinesis is occurs ( just prior to , after ) mitosis. Between divisions, cells are in

  ( dormant-phase , interphase ) , an active period during which chromosomal DNA is

  duplicated, the cell mass ( increases, decreases) and new organelles are produced.

  Nuclear DNA is replicated only during ( G1 , G2 , S ) phase. The process of mitosis

  occurs in the following order : prophase, ( anaphase , metaphase ) , ( anaphase ,

  metaphase ) and telophase. The mitotic spindle is a complex of ( microtubules ,

  microfilaments ) that ( prevents , assists ) chromosomes movement. The spindle is

  attached to each chromosome at a site called the ( connector , centromere ). Following

  nuclear division, the cytoplasm of the cells is divided. The soon-to-be daughter cells are

  separated by the cleavage ( plane , furrow ) in animals cells and the cell ( plate , furrow )

  in the plant cells.

                                                                                                        2

Between divisions, cells are in ( dormant-phase , interphase ) , an active period during which chromosomal DNA is duplicated, the cell mass ( increases, decreases) and new organelles are produced. Nuclear DNA is replicated only during ( G1 , G2 , S ) phase. The process of mitosis occurs in the following order : prophase, ( anaphase , metaphase ) , ( anaphase , metaphase ) and telophase. The mitotic spindle is a complex of ( microtubules , microfilaments ) that ( prevents , assists ) chromosomes movement. The spindle is attached to each chromosome at a site called the ( connector , centromere ). Following nuclear division, the cytoplasm of the cells is divided. The soon-to-be daughter cells are separated by the cleavage ( plane , furrow ) in animals cells and the cell ( plate , furrow ) in the plant cells. 2 pdfMachine A pdf writer that produces quality PDF files with ease!
