Unit 8: How Do I Grow? Level 4 Objectives: 1. List the components of a nucleotide. 2. Describe the works of Beadle & Tatum, Watson & Crick, Nirenburg, Griffith, Hershey & Chase, Avery, MacLeod & McCarty, as well as Chargaff. 3. Describe the structure of DNA and explain what kind of chemical bond connects the nucleotides of each strand and what holds the two strands together. 4. Describe the process of DNA replication and explain the role of helicase, primase, DNA polymerase, ligase, leading and lagging strands. 5. Describe the process of binary fission. 6. List the stages of the cell cycle and describe the sequence of events and activities of these stages. 7. List the phases of mitosis proper, describe the events characteristic of each phase and be able to recognize a diagram or micrograph of each stage. 8. Compare cytokinesis in animals and plants. (syncytia, coenocytes) 9. Identify factors which stimulate or inhibit cell division. 10. Distinguish between sexual and asexual reproduction. 11. Compare the chromosomal contents of haploid and diploid cells. 12. Indicate where mitosis and meiosis would occur in a given organism. 13. Describe the advantages of sexual and asexual reproduction. * Bolded objectives are your responsibility to make sure you understand.
