7. Liver cells, bone cells,

nerve cells, muscle cells are called somatic cells. Sperm
Th

cells and egg cells are called gametes .

8. In animals, somatic cells have 2 set(s) of chromosomes.

9. Division of the nucleus is called

mitosis . Division of the
cytoplasm is called cytokinesis .

10. Golgi apparatus,

RER, SER, lysosomes, ribosomes all duplicate during the G1 phase of
interphase.
11. DNA replication occurs during the S phase of interphase.

 12. 90% of the cell cycle is interphase .

13. Mitosis and cytokinesis make up the M phase of the cell cycle.

14. Cells in the G0 phase have ceased dividing.

15. Each chromosome after DNA replication has two identical parts called
Sister chromatid .

16. A replicated chromosome is also known as a sister chromatid .

17. If a cell has 68 chromosomes at the beginning of the cell cycle, each daughter cell will have
68 chromosomes at the end.

18. Which symbol represents a cell dividing by mitosis? (Circle all that apply)
