Instructions: In order to help you study for your Unit 2 Exam on Friday, October 14, please complete the Unit 2 review
guide. Your review guide will be due at the beginning of the period on Friday and will count as up to 15 points of extra
credit on your Unit 2 Exam.
Vocabulary:
• DNA
• Chromosome

4. Is mitosis an example of asexual or sexual reproduction? Explain your answer.
5. Is a cell entering mitosis diploid or haploid? Leaving mitosis?
6. Draw the stages of mitosis for a cell having 10 chromosomes. Make sure to include interphase and cytokinesis in your
drawings.
7. For each of the following stages, record the main event that happens.
• Metaphase

9. What is a gamete? Why are gametes important in the human body?
10. Are gametes diploid or haploid? Why is this important?
11. Draw the stages of meiosis I and II for a cell having 6 chromosomes. Make sure to include all stages and label any
important events that take place.
12. Meiosis is often discussed as including a number of opportunities for genetic variation. Choose two of these
opportunities and explain.
13. Are cells entering meiosis diploid or haploid? Leaving meiosis?
