1. Cell Division – Ch4/Sect 3 Pgs. 129 – 136

2. The Big Idea
Cells divide to increase their numbers through a process called mitosis, which results in 2 daughter cells with identical sets of chromosomes.
Term
Cell cycle – The regular sequence of growth and division that cells undergo.
Chromosome – a doubled rod of condensed chromatin.

3. Terms and Pics
Interphase The stage of the cell cycle that takes place before the cell division occurs.
Replication - The process by which a cell makes a copy of the DNA in its nucleus.
Mitosis - One copy of the DNA is distributed into each of the daughter cells.
Cytokinesis- The Final stage of the cell cycle
in which the cells cytoplasm
divides, distributing the organelles
into each of the 2 new cells

4. Stage 1 Interphase – Pg. 130
Main Idea: During the Cell cycle, cells divide and grow.

6. Stage 3: Cytokinesis – Pg. 134
Main Idea:The final stage of the cell cycle.

7. Structure and replication of DNA – Pg. 135
Main Idea: DNA Replication ensures that each daughter cell has the genetic info it needs to carry out its activities.
