Cell Cycle Booklet You will create a children’s booklet with illustrations showing the steps of the cell cycle (Interphase, Mitosis, & Cytokinesis) and describe specifically what is happening in the cell (including all of the organelles involved!), in a child’s language. Use internet reference for information and three sheets of paper folded in half and stapled for your book. This should not look exactly like your foldable!! Criteria Cover with title For each phase include a drawing, with structures involved labeled, of what the cell would look like during this phase and explain what is happening in the cell. Interphase (pg.1) Mitosis (one page for each below) Prophase (pg.2) Metaphase (pg.3) Anaphase (pg.4) Telophase (pg.5) Cytokinesis (pg.6) Be Sure to explain how this step occurs in plant cells and in animal cells. Last two pages (pg.7 and 8) Why is the cell cycle important? What are the results of mitosis? Why is mitosis important? How is the cell cycle regulated? Explain happens when cells lose the ability to control growth. *Booklets should be colorful, creative, neat, and easy to read and understand.
