Test lll. Identification. Write your answer on the space provided before the number.
Life science Synthesis phase Cancer Prophase
Cell Cycle Aristotle Oncogenes Robert Hooke
Chromatid Biology Interphase Spindle fiber
Anaphase Rudolf Virchow Telophase Cell division
____________1. What phase are daughter cells in as a result of mitosis? Interphase
____________2. In a chromosome pair connected by a centromere, what is each individual
chromosome called? Chromatid
____________3. Is the longest and the most essential stage of interphase. It is due to the
complexity of the replication of genetic material which results to the duplication of DNA prior to
the cell division process. Synthesis phase
____________4. Is the result of the unregulated process of the cell cycle due to the breakdown
of the mechanisms that controls the entire process? Cancer
____________5. What is the phase where chromatin condenses to form chromosomes?
Prophase
____________6. What structures is produced when protein fibers radiate from centrioles?
Spindle fiber
____________7. is the series of events that occur in a cell to prepare cell division and to
produce two new daughter cells. Cell cycle
____________8. He is the first scientist to use a microscope to observe cork and coined what
he observe as cells and responsible for the beginning of cytology as a subdivision of biology.
Robert hooke
____________9. Is defined as the study of life and how living things change and survive in
their environment with other non – living factors. Biology
