Biology Chapter 5 : Topic 4
Significance of Cell Division
1 / 14
The main significance of mitosis in multicellular organisms is:
Reasoning: Mitosis helps organisms grow and replace damaged or dead cells.
2 / 14
Which process is responsible for replacing old skin cells?
Reasoning: Skin cells divide by mitosis for continuous replacement.
3 / 14
The significance of meiosis is mainly related to:
Reasoning: Meiosis produces sperm and egg cells.
4 / 14
Mitosis ensures that daughter cells have:
Reasoning: Mitosis maintains genetic stability.
5 / 14
Which process is essential for genetic stability in body cells?
Reasoning: Mitosis ensures identical genetic information is preserved.
6 / 14
Which process introduces genetic variation in offspring?
Reasoning: Meiosis produces genetically different gametes.
7 / 14
Why is mitosis important for wound healing?
Reasoning: New cells formed by mitosis repair injured tissues.
8 / 14
The role of meiosis in evolution is mainly due to:
Reasoning: Genetic variation provides raw material for evolution.
9 / 14
Which process ensures continuity of chromosome number in body cells?
Reasoning: Mitosis maintains constant chromosome number in somatic cells.
10 / 14
Which process ensures chromosome number remains constant across generations?
Reasoning: Meiosis halves chromosome number; fertilization restores it.
11 / 14
If mitosis did not occur, what would be affected most?
Reasoning: Mitosis is essential for growth and repair.
12 / 14
If meiosis did not occur, what would be directly affected?
Reasoning: Meiosis is required for sperm and egg production.
13 / 14
Which statement best describes the importance of mitosis?
Reasoning: Mitosis is essential for body maintenance and growth.
14 / 14
Which process is directly responsible for increasing genetic diversity in a population?
Reasoning: Meiosis introduces variation through crossing over and independent assortment. -----------------------------------------------------------------------
