Cell Cycle, Mitosis, Cancer, prokaryotic cell division

pg 53 


Learning Outcomes

The Cell Cycle (info for these outcomes goes on pgs 54-55)

1.    List the four stages of interphase, and describe the major events that occur during each stage in preparation for cell division.

2.    Describe the difference between mitosis and cytokinesis.

3.    List the checkpoints that regulate the progression of cells through the cell cycle.

4.    Explain the mechanisms within the G1 cell cycle checkpoint that evaluates growth signals, determine nutrient availability, and assess DNA integrity.

Mitosis and Cytokinesis (info for these outcomes goes on pgs 56-57)

1.    Explain how the cell prepares the chromosomes and centrosomes prior to nuclear division.

2.    Summarize the major events that occur during mitosis and cytokinesis.

3.    Discuss why human stem cells continuously conduct mitosis.

The Cell Cycle and Cancer (info for these outcomes goes on pgs 58-59)

1.    Describe the basic characteristics of cancer cells.

2.    Distinguish between the roles of the tumor-suppressor genes and protoncogenes in the regulation of the cell cycle.

Prokaryotic Cell Division (info for these outcomes goes on pgs 60-61)

1.    Distinguish between the structure of a prokaryotic and eukaryotic chromosome.

2.    Describe the events that occur during binary fission.
