AGENDA:

– Objectives: SWBAT describe the structure of a DNA nucleotide, the DNA double helix, chromatin, and a eukaryotic chromosome 

– Warm-up: From what you already know, come up with at least two factual details about DNA (its chemical composition, molecular structure, its function, etc.) [5]

– Turn in Mitosis Mini-book (now late)

– Turn in Assignment Stamp Log (now late)

– Introduction to DNA: the structure of a DNA nucleotide, the DNA double helix, chromatin, and a eukaryotic chromosome 

HOMEWORK:

– Sketch and describe the different levels of structure in a eukaryotic chromosome. Use p. 297 in your text and the internet (HINT: use the search phrase “chromosome structure”)

– Major Cell Processes (Photosynthesis, Cellular respiration, Cell Growth & Division) Unit Quiz [25]

– ESLP help and Q & A session [10]

– Turn in Mitosis Mini-book

– Turn in Assignment Stamp Log

– Work on ESLP with your group [50]

HOMEWORK:

– Discuss next steps (with your team) for your ESLP and make at least one entry in your project activity log

AGENDA:

– Objective: SWBAT explain how eukaryotic cells are able to reproduce (make new cells from existing cells)

– Warm-up: If at some point during the process of division of a eukaryotic cell (including mitosis) a serious error occurs, what are some of the probable outcomes (what is likely to occur as a consequence)? What is an unlikely but potentially dangerous outcome for the entire organism? Explain. [5]

– Review cell cycle, mitosis [5]

– Mitosis Mini-book [75]

– Finish 10-2 section assessment questions (DUE today) [~75]
