The phases of mitosis are described and the splitting of a cell into two daughter cells at the end of it.

Use diagrams to help understand meiosis and mitosis.

Understand the life cycle of a eukaryotic cell.

This lesson focuses on cell specialization. This cell must divide to produce a multi-cellular organism. It must also differentiate, so that its cells develop features that enable them to fulfil specific roles. Links are provided to a...

Five self-checking quiz questions to check student understanding of mitosis and cytokinesis.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] How do you make a cell with half the DNA? Meiosis. This activity outlines the phases of meiosis, provides an overview of sexual reproduction, and describe how...

Chromosomes are made from DNA. Genes are short sections of DNA. Genetically identical cells are produced by a type of cell division called mitosis. In sexual reproduction, a male gamete fuses with a female gamete to produce a new cell....

This article provides a discussion of DNA and how it replicates. Includes a chromosome map of a human male, a close-up of chromosomes just before cell division and a close up of a DNA molecule.

This interactive site provides animations and activities in several areas of physiology. The images are simple, but clear. The accompanying text provides a good description of the process being shown.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] DNA must replicate (copy) itself so that each resulting cell after mitosis and cell division has the same DNA as the parent cell. DNA replication occurs during the S...

Try these fifteen multiple-choice review questions over concepts in cellular reproduction.

In this unit students will identify different kinds of genetic traits and how they are passed on from generation to generation. It contains 18 interactive activities.
