Question
Chapter 9, Problem 4MCQ
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The cell division is the process through which the parent cell divides to form daughter cells. The cell division, in eukaryotes is of two types, namely- mitosis and meiosis. The meiosis leads to the formation of four haploid daughter cells.

What process must happen in order for sister chromatids to be formed?
a
crossing over
b
DNA replication
c
relaxation of chromosomes during interphase

meiosis
Which process leads to independent assortment?
a)The process of separating chromosomes
b)The random alignment of homologs with respect to the others on the metaphase plate
c)The process of forming the mitotic spindle
d)The process of cytokinesis
What is the purpose of mitosis?
a
It ensures that new nuclei have an exact copy of DNA.
b
