Jared Benjamin- Crash Course Mitosis

1)  In your body, what can clone itself?
Cells.

  If you get a cut, mitosis replaces. if you drink too much, it damages your liver and mitosis replaces.

Diploid Cells.

9) What are the phases of mitosis?

 Nuclear division plus cytokinesis, and produces two identical daughter cells during prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.

10) What type of cells are sex cells?

Gametes.

Interphase.

12) What phase does the chromatin start to condense into chromosomes?

Prophase.

13)  When does the nuclear envelope disintegrate?

Prophase.

14) What are the jobs of the microtubules?

They are the conveyor belts of the cell. they move vesicles, organelles and more.

15) Who first observed the process of mitosis?

Walter Flemming.

16) What does mitosis mean?

Thread.

17) What is the most recent discovery of mitosis discovered by an MIT student?

chromosome alignment.

Anaphase.

19) What does the prefix "ana" mean?

Again or anew.

20) What happens in telpohase?

Chromosomes appear as chromatin, two new nuclei appear.

21) What is the division of two cells called?

Diploid.

22)What are the names of the two new cells?

Daughter cells.

Crash Course- Mitosis Questions

We have discussed the three jobs of the cell which are;

generate energy

making proteins and

creating more cells

Mitosis is the process by which new cells are formed from pre-existing cells in eukaryotes.  

Use the Crash Course video on Mitosis to answer the following questions.  Please answer the questions directly from the blog and highlight your final answer and skip lines if done on loose leaf.  All questions must be answered by the end of class and submitted to jaharris@dc.seedschool.org for full credit.  This assignment is one of the very first assignments of the 3rd quarter.

Shidear and Dejha 3-D Cell

Destiny 3D Cell Project

3D Cell Project ( Alaysia & Genai )

for our project Genai and i decided to do a plant cell model . Anyone can tell our model is a plant cell because it has a cytoplasm and a large vacuole . 

Both plants and animal cells have many similarities such as cell wall , lysosomes , mitochondria and vacuole. Unlike plant cells animal cells contain a smaller vacuole and flagella .

              ANIMAL CELL CAKE

Ashlee and I decided to do an animal cell. You can tell it is an animal cell because animal cells are round VS plant cells that are rectangular. 

                ANIMAL VS PLANT

1.) Animal cells and plant cells are different in various ways.

•animal cells do not have a chloroplast but plant cells do. 

•animal cell has no cell but plant cells do.

•the shapes are different 

•an animal cell is smaller than a plant cell

         MAJOR JOBS OF THE CELL

The three major functions of a cell are:

1. Make more cells 

2. Energy conversion 

3. Transport molecules 

                   STEM CELLS 

A stem cell is a cell that stores genetic information in the plant tissue. 

Stem cells can be useful in these ways:

•increase understanding of how diseases occur.

-watching stem cells mature help doctors see how diseases Develop 

•stems cells are a major key in cell regeneration 

-helps repair damaged tissue

3D Cell Model Project Jared Benjamin- Writing is Thinking

1. I created a plant cell and three distinguishable characteristics are the Cell Wall, which only are in plant cells. it also has chloroplast and a large vacuole that are exclusive to plant cells.

2. The Three basic functions of a cell are transport of molecules, conversion of energy and reproduction.

3. A stem cell is a cell that stores the genetic info inside the plant tissue.

4.  Potential uses for stem cells are macular degeneration, heart disease and diabetes.

PROKARYOTIC vs. EUKARYOTIC

----------------------------------------

-Unicellular              - Nucleus 

-Bacteria                 -  Multicellular 

                   Both 

                   ------

            -cell membrane

             -ribosomes 

             -DNA

1. Plant cells are different from animal cells because they don't have as many organelles as the cell of animal. Also There are some things that plant cells have that animal cells don't such as,

-cell wall: help keep the cells shape and structure.

-large vacuole: where waste is composed 

2. 3of the cells most important jobs are to:

make more cells

make proteins

&

make energy 

3.the stem cells are in the tissues and organs of the plant.

4. Stem cells are used to make plants and make more of the same type of plant.
