Mitosis Worksheet

This document provides a worksheet on mitosis with questions to test understanding of the phases. It includes a matching section to align terms with descriptions of each phase. There is also a diagram showing 6 cells in various phases of mitosis to answer questions about identifying phases and structures. The final questions ask about the importance of mitosis.

Mitosis Worksheet
The diagram below shows six cells in various phases of the cell cycle. Note the cells are not arranged in
the order in which mitosis occurs and one of the phases of mitosis occurs twice. Use the diagram to
answer questions 1-7.

1) Cells A and D show an early and a late stage of the same phase of mitosis. What phase is it?

2) Which cell is in metaphase?

3) Which cell is in the first phase of mitosis?

4) In cell A, what structure is labeled X?

5) Place the diagrams in order from first to last.

6) Are the cells depicted plant or animal cells? Explain your answer.

7) What is the longest phase of the entire cell cycle?

8) Why is mitosis important?
