A cell at telophase stage is observed by a student in a plant brought from the field. He tells his teacher that this cell is not like other cells at telophase stage. There is no formation of cell plate and thus the cell is containing more number of chromosomes as compared to other dividing cells. This would result in
1. | Polyteny | 2. | Aneuploidy |
3. | Polyploidy | 4. | Somaclonal variation |
During cell growth, DNA synthesis takes place in
1. | M phase | 2. | S Phase |
3. | G1 phase | 4. | G2 phase |

A bacterium divides every 35 minutes. If a culture containing 105 cells per mL is grown for 175 minutes, what will be the cell concentration per mL after 175 minutes ?
1. 175 × 105 cells
2. 85 × 105 cells
3. 35 × 105 cells
4. 32 × 105 cells
Best material for the study of mitosis in laboratory is
1. anther
2. root tip
3. leaf tip
4. ovary
In the somatic cell cycle,
1. DNA replication takes place in S-phase
2. A short interphase is followed by a long mitotic phase
3. G2 phase follows mitotic phase
4. In G1 phase, DNA content is double the amount of DNA present in the original cell
