The Stages of the Cell Cycle ~ Meiosis Drawings
DIRECTIONS: The circles below represent the cell membrane of a cell going through the cell cycle. Use the
DRAWINGS (not the photographs!) on pages 276-277 to help you DRAW, COLOR, and LABEL the stages of the
meiosis cell cycle within the spaces below. When you have finished your drawings, use your textbook to help you
answer the questions at the end of the page. DO NOT WRITE ANYTHING ON THE LINES NEXT TO EACH
DRAWING UNTIL INSTRUCTED TO DO SO!
