11 Mrs. Keadle H Science Onion ell Mitosis Questions Why does cell division take place in unicellular organisms? 13 Which of these statements most likely describes what happens if DNA is not duplicated during interphase? A B D or the organism to grow. To reproduce and pass on genetic information. To enable the organisms to heal injured tissues. to make specialized cells for different functions. G H The new cells would be more numerous. The new cells would have too many chromosomes. The new cells would have too many or too few nuclei. The new cells would have an incorrect number of chromosomes. 14 Allia uses a microscope to look at slides of onion cells. The slides show the stages of the cell cycle.

All plants and animals are eukaryotic cells G composed of cells. ells arise from preexisting cells by the process of mitosis.
