Wednesday: Students will complete a review of mitosis (MBC). Students will then be introduced to the process of meiosis (Virtual Cell Animation Collection: Meiosis - MBC). After students have read the online textbook, p. 363, and viewed a video comparing mitosis to meiosis (Comparison of Meiosis and Mitosis - MBC), they will continue to color the "Mitosis" plate.
Thursday: Students will be shown the phases of meiosis. In a video segment, Hank will explain meiosis and the production of gamete, or sex cells (MBC). Students will then use manipulatives to demonstrate their understanding of the steps of meiosis.
Homework: Students will complete the review assignment "Steps of Meiosis" (MBC).
Friday: Students will read Chapter 10, Sec. 1, p. 365. Students will then watch a short video over selective breeding of peppers.
