    Lab
    The goal of this basic lab is break the misconception that photosynthesis is how plants grow. Students should also learn that plants grow by cell division. Students will be able to move past the misconception that plants use photosynthesis, not cell division, to grow.

    Project
    In this cell cycle project, students learn about the cell division by creating a paper flipbook animation that models interphase, mitosis and cytokinesis. Students draw the phases of the cell cycle on each index card, labeling specific structures in the cell and chromosome numbers. You can easily convert this project into a meiosis flip book.

    Lab
    Students will practice designing their own experiment. Students will experience pluripotent stem cells by watching a stem grow roots. Students should also recognize that plants grow by cell division.

    Lab
    In this chromosome modeling lab, students create pairs of socks models of chromosomes to model the processes of mitosis, meiosis, and fertilization. Students also build a foundation about meiosis and fertilization and how it relates to genetics and genetic disorders.

    Worksheet
    In this meiosis chromosome worksheet, students answer questions about the number of chromosomes generated by either mitosis or meiosis. Haploid and diploid chromosome numbers help students understand the reproduction type used in each process.
