Mitosis
Young scholars explore the four stages of mitosis. They view a prepared slide of an onion root tip undergoing mitosis to identify the stage for each cell in view. They record the number of cells in each stage, graph the results, then...
Curated OER
Cell Growth and Division
In this biology worksheet, 9th graders identify and explain what cell stay in inter-phase. Then they describe which stage of cell is the shortest and determine why that is true. Students also explain the process of mitosis.
Curated OER
Mitosis and Meiosis
High schoolers create a movie of animal cell mitosis. They draw steps regarding the stages of cell mitosis. They add beginnings, movie titles, and ending credits. They present the movie to their teacher.
