Daughter cells resulting from meiosis:

(a) have only one member of each homologous pair
(b) have only one member of each pair of alleles
(c) have half as many chromosomes as the parent cell
(d) all of these
(e) none of these.

The centromere is a region in which:

a) chromatids remain attached to one another until anaphase.
b) metaphase chromosomes become aligned at the metaphase plate.
c) chromosomes are grouped during telophase.
d) the nucleus is located prior to mitosis.
e) new spindle microtubules form at either end.

In the cells of some organisms, mitosis occurs without cytokinesis. This will result in:

a) cells with more than one nucleus.
b) cells that are unusually small.
c) cells lacking nuclei.
d) destruction of chromosomes.
e) cell cycles lacking an S phase.

Which of the following does not occur during mitosis?

a) condensation of the chromosomes
b) replication of the DNA
c) separation of sister chromatids
d) spindle formation
e) separation of the spindle poles.
