Cell Cycle, Mitosis, Meiosis, & Cancer
Mitosis VERSUS Meiosis Organize the following qualities into the topics of MITOSIS, MEIOSIS, or BOTH. Feel free to use your notes from last week! MITOSIS BOTH MEIOSIS The final products are DIPLOID cells. I am a process of cell division. The final products are HAPLOID cells. This is the process we use for regular cell division on the daily- skin cells, hair cells, stomach cells, etc. This process is used by humans. This is how we produce sex cells. This process creates TWO cells. This process involves starting with one cell and ending with more than one cell. This process creates FOUR cells. What is the result of uncontrolled mitosis? Diabetes Cancer/ Growth of a tumor Alzheimers High blood pressure Peto's Paradox Go to this link and watch this video! Now it is your turn! Be the scientist and figure out Peto's Paradox. Scientists have proposed a few ideas which you could choose... Pick your favorite! Proposed ideas to choose from (or feel free to do some more research and find one of your own!):1) Evolution Extra copies of tumor suppressing gene (P53) ( (also in video)2) Hypertumors (look to video) Pick one of the answers from the list or find one of your own and explain how it solves the paradox (relate this to the cell cycle and uncontrolled mitosis, aka cancer). Feel free to use the video and any articles linked above or that you find on your own to support your answer. Please explain below using about 300 words 1. How do you feel about Cell Cycle?2.
