Innovating Science® - APï®® Biology Investigation #7: Cell Division: Mitosis and Meiosis
$205.00
Chemical products can only be purchased by Corporations and Educational Institutions. Private Individuals are not eligible.
Manufacturer ID - IS3707
Students will learn about acids and bases through a class discussion and then test a dilute acid and dilute base with neutral litmus paper to learn how the paper indicates something is acidic or basic. Once that skill is learned they can move on to test some common items that would be found around their house to determine if they are acids or bases. Optional: Extra litmus paper is included to test more items either from home or around the school building for a greater understanding of acids and bases. The activity contains enough materials for 6 groups of students.
Description
Students will study the cellular steps involved in DNA replication and cell division in both mitosis and meiosis. This investigation will allow students to examine the stages of mitosis in the preparation of plant root tips. Crossing over in meiosis will also be investigated through the use of Sordaria cultures. Meets AP Science Practices 1, 5, 6, and 7, and Big Idea 3. Materials provided for 32 students in eight lab groups.
