Curated OER
Genetic Variation Worksheet
Fill- in-the-blank, labeling, and short answer questions make up this well-written cell division worksheet. Neat diagrams of chromosomes and dividing cells are included. Junior biologists show what they know about reproduction, meiosis,...

Adding by Dividing
Cell-ute the cell! Examine how surface-to-volume ratio relates to cell size through hands-on exploration, observe cell division under the microscope, and collect data on the stages of cell division in an onion root tip. Learners pull it...
Curated OER
Cell Division
Students describe the cell cycle. They make a connection between DNA replication and cell division. Students describe the parts of the cell that participate in cell division and the steps of cell division.
Curated OER
Mitosis vs. Meiosis Worksheet
This complete activity includes short answer and multiple choice questions as well as a Venn diagram for comparing and contrasting mitosis with meiosis. Separate teachers' instructions are supplied. This could be used as homework and is...
Curated OER
The Cell Cycle
In this biology worksheet, students label 9 diagrams with the correct names. They also write short answers to 6 questions that follow.
Curated OER
Cell Size and Division or How Big Would You Want To Be if You Were a Cell?
Learners investigate why cells divide. In this cell size lesson plan, students observe how far a solution travels into 3 different size model cells of agar. They answer questions about the most effect movement of "nutrients" into the...
Curated OER
How Many Cells Are Born in a Day?
Students predict the number of cells after a series of cell divisions. In this cells lesson students create a graph of their results and create a patterned drawing.
Curated OER
Cell Division and Mitosis
Young scholars identify each phase of mitosis and the main characteristics of each. Students prepare a microscope slide with onion root tip. Young scholars observe the cell division occurring in the cells and label the mitosis phases...
Curated OER
Mitosis and Meiosis
Students model and differentiate between the processes of mitosis and meiosis. In partners, they use yarn and construction paper to create models for each of the phases of mitosis and meiosis then compare the chromosome numbers in each...
Curated OER
Meiosis
Students practice identifying the stages and purpose for meiosis. They use a worksheet to construct each phase, label its parts and describe the process occurring in each phase. they divide the process into meiosis I and meiosis II.
Curated OER
Mitosis
Students explore the four stages of mitosis. They view a prepared slide of an onion root tip undergoing mitosis to identify the stage for each cell in view. They record the number of cells in each stage, graph the results, then calcualte...
