-
Characteristics of living things and cell theory
Plant and animal organelle diagrams (structure and function)
Differences between plant and animal cells
The Need for Cell Division and the Cell Cycle
-
3 functions of cell division
5 main phases of the cell cycle (G1, S and G2 phases, mitosis and cytokinesis)
Programmed Cell Death and Cancer
-
Apoptosis – programmed cell death
What is cancer?
Causes of cancer, diagnosis, and treatment
Compare and contrast normal and cancer cells
Microscopes
-
Parts of a compound light microscope and their functions
electron microscopes ( SEM and TEM ) uses
measuring the field of the field of view and estimating cell size
Cell Specialization
-
How do cells become specialized? What happens to the DNA in these specialized cells?
The Animal Body – Levels of Organization
-
What is a tissue?
Levels of organization (hierarchy) …organelles – cells – tissues – organs – organ systems – organism
Animal tissue types: epithelial tissue, connective tissue, muscle tissue and nerve tissue
Stem Cells and Cellular Differentiation
