3-4. What are the 2 kinds of Amitosis?

3. Binary Fission
4. Budding

5. It is a kind of chromosomal aberration where in humans, the regular 23 pairs of chromosomes have
an extra one chromosome thus, resulting to a 69 chromosome cell.

6. What is the name of the syndrome associated with Trisomy 13?

Patau Syndrome

7. In the structure of a chromosome, what is used to identify the number of chromosomes?

Centromeres

8. During prophase, what organelle disappears?

nuclear membrane

9. What happens during the S phase?

DNA is copied faithfully through the process of DNA replication.

10. G1, S phase, and G2 collectively belongs to what phase?

Interphase

Refer to the statement below for items 11-45:

The gorilla, which is one of the closest living relatives to humans have 24 pairs of chromosomes. In
which, their somatic cells are composed of 48 chromosomes all together. When their skin cells are
damaged due to injury from a fight, it undergoes the process of mitosis. First, Identify the number of
chromosomes and number of DNA molecules per phase as it undergoes this process. Subsequently,
identify the number of chromosomes per phase for a male gorilla's sperm production. (Label the
correct name of the cell division as you go along. You may use the back page for your answers.)
