
I am able to assess how uncontrolled cell growth may result from mutations that
affect the proteins that regulate the cell cycle.
Describe how to prevent cancer by preventing mutations.

I am able to assess how uncontrolled cell growth may result from mutations that
affect the proteins that regulate the cell cycle.
Given a scenario of a patient just diagnosed with cancer,
trace the history of those cancer cells back to when they were
healthy.

I am able to state that mutations that affect the proteins that regulate the cell cycle
may result in uncontrolled cell growth.
Sequence the events that result in uncontrolled cell growth:
certain proteins regulate checkpoints in the cell cycle so that it
proceeds normally, a mutation occurs in the DNA of a gene of
one of these proteins, the wrong protein is made, the
checkpoint is no longer properly regulated, cells divided
without control.

I am able to recall that uncontrolled cell growth may result in cancer.
Given two difference sequences that show normal cell
division and uncontrolled cell division, describe the end result
of each sequence.

I am able to recall that cells divide in order to make more cells.


I am able to connect specific events to specific stages of the cell cycle.
Match the specific events of the cell cycle to the specific
stages of the cell cycle to include G1, S, G2, the major
stages of mitosis, and cytokinesis.

I am able to identify specific events that occur in each of the stages of the cell cycle.
Given a diagram of each stage of the cell cycle, in the
correct order, describe one event that is happening in that
stage.

I am able to recall that when cells divide they first make a copy of the hereditary


I am able to differentiate the processes of mitosis and meiosis and/or show how
these processes may contribute to or limit genetic variation.
Compare the level of genetic variation in a bacterial colony
to the level of variation in an animal population. Defend an
argument on how sexual reproduction increases the
variability of a species and protects that species in terms of
natural selection.

I am able to differentiate the processes of mitosis and meiosis and describe how
these processes may contribute to or limit genetic variation.

through mitosis and meiosis describing the processes of
each with an emphasis on how, where, and when each
process occurs.

I am able to contrast the processes of mitosis and meiosis and specify if these
processes may contribute to or limit genetic variation.
Make a graphic organizer that emphasizes the differences
between mitosis and meiosis in chromosome number,
genetic variation, number of cells produced, and type of
reproduction.

I am able to recognize that mitosis and meiosis are different processes that have
different outcomes.
