3. Discuss the importance of cell division. (i.e. Why do cells divide? What would happen if they didn’t divide?)
4. Discuss the process of cell division, through each of its 3 main phases – interphase, mitosis, and cytokinesis.
(i.e. How do cells divide? What is important at each stage in the cell cycle?)
5. Discuss how tumours are formed.
6. Discuss some available cancer treatments and the positive and negative effects of this technology.
7. Discuss some of the healthy lifestyle choices we can make to help prevent cancer and other disorders of the
human body.
