Students examine how and why the cell divides, the cells in a cell cycle and the process of mitosis and all of its stages. They also analyze how the cell goes through both nuclear and cytoplasmic division. In addition, they write in their science journals on the prompt "Do cells live forever?" Full Review »

Students explore the connection between genetics and heredity by examining the cellular structure. Among the numerous activities to engage students are drawing DNA molecules, vocabulary puzzle sheets, and predicting possible offspring combinations by discovering the Punnett Squares to predict ratios for inherited traits.

Students create a yeast dihybrid cross and follow two forms of each of two traits: red growth versus cream color, and tryptophan-dependent versus tryptophan-independent. They complete diagrams to represent the alleles, predict the gamestes of the F1 Diploids, and test the predicted phenotypes. Full Review »

Students engage in a lesson that looks at the structure of the cell. They focus upon the different parts of the cell by constructing an edible model and label each part. Students define key vocabulary in the presentation of the model to demonstrate mastery of the objectives. Full Review »

Students create three dimensional cell models. They may choose to make either a plant or animal cell but must use a ziploc bag as the cell membrane, slime for the cytoplasm, and a strawberry baskets for the cell wall if making a plant cell. They may choose what they wish to represent all the other organelles of the cell and must include a key. Project is completed by mathematically comparing the size of the cell they created to an actual cell. Full Review »
