Free Response Questions Chapters 12 & 13

 

1. Describe the five stages of mitosis beginning with Prophase and ending with Telophase. Be sure to describe the important events that occur at each stage.  Include a labeled illustration of each stage- follow the fate of four chromosomes in your illustrations. Be sure to mention that mitosis concludes with cytokinesis but do not go into details about the difference between animal and plant cell cytokinesis.

2. This is the assignment we did in class- know all parts of meiosis- each phase, be able to identify what happens at each phase, be able to identify the different parts of the process going on within the cell. The level of detail you need to know is what is in the book and/or CD ROM. If you missed the in-class meiosis activity then just write up this free response like you did in the mitosis free response above (#1).
