§How do cells divide from existing cells? §Why is cell division important?

§ Read the provided article. On a half sheet of paper, record your responses to the following questions: 1. What tasks must a cell complete in order to divide? 2. What are the 2 main phases of the cell cycle? 3. Preparation for division happens in what 3 steps? 4. What are the stages of Mitosis? 5. What happens during cytokinesis?

§ After READING the provided article, please use the paper plate to TRACE a cell cycle into your notebook (page ) § Clearly LABEL each phase described in the reading: Interphase, G 1 Phase, S Phase, G 2 Phase, M Phase § Within M Phase, LABEL: Mitosis and Cytokinesis § Use the reading to WRITE what happens in each phase

§ Each person in your group will research a different phase of Mitosis (Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase) and Cytokinesis § Record and look up/define any words or structures you don’t know!!!! (chromosome, centromere, spindle fiber, nuclear envelope, etc. ) § Draw a picture of a cell in your phase § Share your information with your group members § Fill out the Mitosis Research Notes table (write the name of the person responsible for researching each phase)

§ Directions: You will be making a comic strip of the cell cycle § Before you begin, analyze the provided comics and discuss: What makes a good comic strip?

§ Your cell cycle comic strip should be colorful, entertaining, AND informative § Your comic strip should tell a story! § Your comic strip must have the following: § A title (Hint: think of a catchy, funny, or descriptive title) § A different box for each part of the cell cycle (interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, cytokinesis) § A cartoon picture for each phase § A caption for each picture that describes what is happening during that phase

§ Score your peer’s comic strip using the following scale: § Do they have a TITLE? 1 PT § Do they have a box for each phase of the cell cycle (interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, cytokinesis)? 1 PT § Is there a PICTURE for each phase? 1 PT § Is there a CAPTION for each picture that describes what is happening during that phase? 1 PT § Does the comic strip TELL A STORY or link a chain of events? 1 PT § Record the number of points they received on the BACK of their comic strip (____/5 PTS) If they missed a point, indicate what they are missing
