SW Science 10 Unit 1 Mitosis Worksheet: 1.2 Mitosis and Asexual Reproduction Require One Parent 1.2.1 Mitosis

This worksheet assesses a student's understanding of mitosis through a series of labeling and short answer questions. The student is asked to: 1) Label the stages of mitosis in a diagram of an animal cell undergoing mitosis. 2) Identify the stage where chromosomes thicken and become visible (prophase) and what structure produces spindle fibers in animal cells (centrioles). 3) Determine what stage of mitosis a cell is in based on a drawing. 4) Identify the stages of mitosis (interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, cytokinesis) in drawings of plant cell mitosis. 5) Draw

1.2 Mitosis and asexual reproduction require one parent


1.2.1 Mitosis

1. Label the following diagram of mitosis of an animal cell.

2. During which stage of a cell’s cycle do the replicated chromosomes thicken and
become visible? ______________________

3. In animal cells, which structure is thought to produce the spindle fibers that help
separate the sister chromatids during anaphase? ______________________

4. Is this structure found in plant cells? __________


5. The drawing below has been made from a photograph showing a cell undergoing
mitosis. Based on the drawing, in what stage of mitosis must the cell have been in?

______________________

6. The drawings A-E show stages of mitosis in an plant cell.

(a) Which of the drawings A -E shows

(i) interphase ________ (DNA is replicated)

(ii) prophase ________ (chromosomes – 2 sister chromatids – shorten)

(iii) metaphase ________ (sister chromatids line up)

(iv) anaphase ________ (sister chromatids separate)

(v) telophase ________ (new nucleus forms at each end)

(vi) cytokinesis ________ (cell contents divided between 2 daughter cells)

(b) Give two processes which occur during interphase and which are necessary for
nuclear division to take place.
