More on Meiosis

1. First refresh yourself with this meiosis song!




2. Check out this video (from last week) on meiosis and answer the questions on your handout along with it. 



3. Once you are done with the video, check your answers here


4. Watch this animation from Cells Alive to get another visual of the process of meiosis. Click on the bottom of the box where it says "Start the Animation..." You can also check out Mitosis here


5. Begin working on your Mitosis and Meiosis diagrams on the back of the video questions. 

You will need to draw and label the stages that haven't already been completed. Resources to help you complete the diagrams can be found here:
  • Science book pages 132 and 133, 172 and 173
  • Science notebook pages 30, 31, and 32
  • Ms. Chea's old blog posts from 11/19, 11/21, 12/2, 12/5, and 12/6

                             

*Anything on the diagrams not completed in class becomes part of your homework. 

6. Finish up by completing your Exit Ticket here!
