Chapter 10.1, 10.2 & 11.4: Cell Growth and Division
For this unit we will study the stages of development a cell goes through (the cell
cycle) with special emphasis on the two ways that cells divide (mitosis and meiosis).
Special attention will be paid to:
 whether the products are haploid or diploid
 what happens in each stage of each cell cycle
 recognizing each stage of each type of cell division in plant and animal cells
 comparing/contrasting mitosis and meiosis (and binary fission)
 comparing contrasting cell division in eukaryotes and prokaryotes
Assessment for this unit consists of a mixed format test (multiple choice, short
answer, diagrams, etc.) as well as a performance project where you act out cell
division. More about this project on another sheet
