Learning objectives:
- I will describe the events in the cell cycle and how these events are controlled.
- I will be able to explain how DNA is transmitted to the next generation via mitosis.
- I will be able to explain how DNA is transmitted to the next generation vis meiosis followed by fertilization.
- I will understand how meiosis and crossing over leads to increased genetic diversity, which is necessary for evolution.

Finish notes on cell communication
- Begin investigation 7: Mitosis and Meiosis
- Background (investigate 1st three links at the bottom of this blog)
- The Investigations (pg 86) answer questions 1-8.
- Part I: Modeling Mitosis (pg 87) answer all questions.
- Part II: Effects of Environment on Mitosis- not yet, stay tuned......
- Part 3: Loss of Cell Cycle Control in Cancer: (pg 90) - review from part 1 and prelab questions for part 3
- Case 1:HeLa cells, using on-line resources answer the 10 questions posed for this section.

Great links;
The resource below provides excellent pictures and videos to acquaint students with mitosis and meiosis. In addition, there is a link to a survey from the American Academy of Dermatology about sun exposure and skin cancer.

Great animation of normal cell division and cancer cell formation.

Both of these websites have good cell cycle animations. The NIH resource, Cell
Biology and Cancer, has a section on cancer, the cell cycle, tumor suppressor genes,
and oncogenes.http://science.education.nih.gov/supplements/nih1/cancer/default.htm
