DNA

Today you will be completing a DNA worksheet.

• Start by viewing this video.  You may view the video multiple times, if you like.  To open in another window or tab you should right click on the link, otherwise left click.  
• You can use this textbook; DNA Structure and Function.  The information for this worksheet should be on the first few pages of the chapter.  
• You may use this link of online Biology textbook to go to the chapter on DNA.   
• You may search the internet with Google, Yahoo or any other search engine, to find the material.  

If you need help, ASK.  

When you are done have Dr Bein check and collect your sheet.  When this is done, you may use the rest of the period for free time.  

Difference between Mitosis & Meiosis

Today we will begin by looking at a meiosis tutorial.   Click on this link and follow the instructions.

If you finish early you can continue working be examining the differences between Mitosis and Meiosis, with the help of the links below.  The picture above can be enlarged by clicking on it.

You can use these links to start your exploration:

Mitosis project

For this you will complete the parts on  the mitosis tutorial and the Onion Root Tip - online activity.  This is similar to the sheet that you got, but you can click on the links instead of having to type in the addresses.  To go to the link you have to hold the Ctrl key as you click on the link.  Please write your answers on the paper sheet.  Please note that the order is slightly different on the sheets and online.
