Essential Questions
How is the cell cycle controlled?
How does the cell move through the stages of the cell cycle?
How does the packaging of DNA change with the various parts of the cell cycle?
How does the cell make copies of itself for repair and growth?
How does the cell make gametes for sexual reproduction?
How are mitosis and meiosis related in the life cycle of a human?
How do the processes of mitosis and meiosis compare and contrast?
How do the outcome of mitosis compare and contrast?
How is genetic diversity created?
How are chromosomal errors classified?
Learning Targets
Learning Target #1: We will describe chromosome structure.
Learning Target #2: We will compare and contrast chromatin and chromosomes.
Learning Target #3: We will describe the steps, purpose, and events of the cell cycle
Learning Target #4: We will analyze checkpoints in the cell cycle and determine how they regulate the cell cycle.
Learning Target #5: We will investigate different types of cyclins and apply their actions to the cell cycle and checkpoints.
Learning Target #6: We will connect cancer with a lack of regulation of the cell cycle.
Learning Target #7: We will describe the steps of mitosis and cytokinesis.
