Vocabulary-Mitosis

Cell cycle-series of events in which a cell grows, prepares for division, and divides to form two daughter cells
  • Interphase-period of the cell cycle between cell divisions
    • Gap 1 (G1): Cell growth
    • S Phase (Synthesis-to make): DNA replicates
    • Gap 2 (G2):  Prepares for mitosis
  • M Phase
    • Mitosis-part of eukaryotic cell division during which the cell nucleus divides
      • Prophase-first and longest phase of mitosis in which the genetic material inside of the nucleus condenses and the chromosomes become visible
      • Metaphase-phase of mitosis in which the chromosomes line up across the center of the cell 
      • Anaphase-phase of mitosis in which chromosomes separate and move to opposite ends of the cell 
      • Telophase-phase of mitosis in which the distinct individual chromosomes begin to spread out into a tangle of chromatin
    • Cytokinesis-division of the cytoplasm to form two separate identical daughter cells
Cell division-process by which a cell divides into two new daughter cells
Centriole-structure in an animal cell that helps to organize cell division
Centromere-region of chromosome where the two sister chromatids attach
Chromatid-one of two identical "sister" parts of a duplicated chromosome
Chromatin-substance found in eukaryotic chromosomes that consists of DNA tightly coiled around histones
Chromosome-threadlike structure within the nucleus that contains genetic information that is passed from one generation to the next
 
 

Finished with MAP Assessment

 Now that you have completed your MAP Assessment, write down your score on your scratch paper and submit it.  Leave your calculator with the number facing up.
Next, go to www.virturalnerd.com.  Watch the videos, solving equations (Watch the one you may have concerns about first). 

Large Interactive Notebook

See the link below to build your classroom size interactive notebook.  Each group is given a topic.  You may use your notes, handouts, or this website to generate a good notebook page for the class.  

Algebra 1 Lesson Plans Week 4 January 23-27, 2016

  • This week's lesson plans include the following strands:  
    • A1-A-SSE.3c:  Use the properties of exponents to transform expressions for exponential functions.  
    • A1-F-L3.1a:  Prove that linear functionsn grow by equal differences over equal intervals and that exponential functions grow by equal factors over equal intervals.  
    • A1-F-LE.1c:  Recognize situations in which a quantity grows or decays by a constant percent rate per unit interval relative to another.
  • Please click on the Algebra 1 tab to find detail lesson plans.  
  • Also, take advantage of the videos at the bottom of the page.

Are you finished with your MAP Assessement?

If you have complete your MAP Assessment, you need to complete the assignment on the following links.  If you need a calculator, use the one on the computer by going to the windows icon, then select calculator.  If you have any questions, please feel free to let me know.  You must submit your work before leaving class today.  This is a graded assignement.  Thank you.
