CELL REPRODUCTION- //Mitosis and Meiosis// B1.1.1. Describe the events that occur during the cell cycle: interphase, nuclear division (i.e., mitosis and meiosis), cytokinesis. B.1.1.2 Compare the processes possible outcomes of mitotic and meiotic nuclear divisions || **VOCAB:****Haploid, Diploid, Mitosis, Meiosis, Binary Fission, Cell Cycle, Cytokinesis, Chromosome, Chromatid, Centromere, Synapsis, Chiasma, Tetrads, Homologous Chromosomes, microtubules, spindle fibers, equatorial plate, apoptosis, telomere** THE CELL CYCLE & ASEXUAL REPRODUCTION
 * //Keystone Objectives://
 * CELLS **: []

TYPES OF ASEXUAL REPRODUCTION **CHECK YOURSELF ON CELL CYCLE AND ASEXUAL REPRODUCTION** **b) What is mitosis?** **c) In which stage of mitosis does the nuclear membrane begin to disappear and chromatin coils into double chromosomes?** **d) What is a centromere? A chromatid? Spindle fibers / microtubules? Centrioles / Asters?** **e) In which stage of mitosis do the double chromosomes line up single file down the equatorial line of the cell?** **f ) What moves the double chromosomes around and where does it attach to them?** **g) In which stage of mitosis do spindle fibers contract and pull double chromosome chromatids apart into individual chromosomes and pull them to opposite sides of the cell?** **h) In which stage of mitosis does the nuclear membrane begin to Reappear and chromatids/single chromosomes UNcoil into strandy chromatin again?** **i) W****hat is cytokinesis?** **j****) How do the steps in binary fission differ from MITOSIS even though both are ASEXUAL reproduction?** **k) Why is fission a faster process?** **l) Mitosis begins with a diploid cell and ends with how many cells of what ploidy?**

Expected Student Learning Competencies

 * Explain how all organisms begin their life cycles as a single cell and that in multicellular organisms, successive generations of embryonic cells form by cell division.
 * Summarize the stages of the **cell cycle**.
 * Explain the role of **mitosis** in the formation of new cells and its importance in maintaining chromosome number during asexual reproduction
 * Explain that the information passed from parents to offspring is transmitted by means of genes which are coded in **DNA** molecules.
