THIS IDEA PRESENTED?
Mitotic/Meiotic Machinery: sister chromatids, centromeres/
centrioles, chromosomes/ chromatin, homologous
chromosomes, spindle fibers
Steps of Mitosis- List and Describe each step (include
cytokinesis)
Cell Cycle/Interphase- parts of cell cycle as well as events
during each part (do not forget your focus also on cell cycle
regulation !)
Steps of Meiosis- List and Describe each step (include
cytokinesis!)
Chromsomal Abnormalities- Nondisjunction
Diploid vs. Haploid- Definitionsl
Cancer- definition, causes/risk factors, treatments, preventative
techniques, types, vocabulary associated with topic,
characteristics of cancer cells AND NORMAL CELL
CHARACTERISTICS
!
9. Chromosome organization- histone proteins, DNA, chromatin
vs. DNA vs. chromosomes
Why do cells divide? (2) reasons
CROSSING OVER- WHEN does this happen and HOW
does this lead to genetic variability?
