1.In two paragraphs, explain why a cell is limited in size by both DNA and its ability to exchange materials(surface:volume).
2.What happens to DNA, specifically chromosomes, when a cell is undergoing division?
3.Summarize what occurs in each of the four phases of the cell cycle: G1, S, G2, and M
4.In four short paragraphs, summarize the events of mitosis by phase. Include cytokinesis in your telophase paragraph.
5.Why is the control of cell growth important? How do scientists observe cell growth in a laboratory?
6.Detail the history behind the discovery of cyclins. Compare internal and external regulator proteins.
7.Using specific examples, describe how cancer is simply a form of uncontrolled cell growth
8.Summarize the short article on stem cells. Make sure to include: what they are, where they come from, what they might be used for.
9.Explain how chromosome number is manipulated by meiosis and sexual reproduction.
10.Compare the diagram of mitosis(246-47) to the diagram of meiosis(276-77) and describe/explain as many differences as you can.
11.Using the text and figure 11-17, describe how meiosis differs from males to females.
12.Compare and contrast the DNA, DNA replication, and chromosome structure of prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
13.Describe how DNA folds up into a compact structure(chromosome). Give at least one example of how amazing this feat is.
14.Summarize the process of DNA replication. Make sure to explain why the structure of DNA is so important to its replication.
