True or False (16-25)


16. Mitosis results in four daughter cells.
17. Anaphase is the phase where chromosomes align at the metaphase plate.
18. Errors in mitosis can lead to genetic disorders or cancer.
19. Mitosis occurs in gametes (sex cells).
20. Cytokinesis is considered a phase of mitosis.
21. Interphase is the phase before mitosis where the cell prepares for division.
22. Spindle fibers help separate chromosomes during mitosis.
23. In animal cells, cytokinesis occurs through the formation of a cleavage furrow.
24. During prophase, chromosomes become visible and condense.
25. Telophase is the final phase of mitosis before cytokinesis begins.
