Finish 'Cell Types' and 'Mitosis' POGILS; notes & videos homework!!

Thank you for sitting with your new table groups 🌞

Tutorial Schedule today 
Many of you have still not submitted your 'Elephant Engineering Design Graphic Organizer' OR your 'Exercise Lab C/E/R', and that was reflected in your progress report. PLEASE come to tutorial today to finish any remaining missing work from the Biomolecules/Elephant Project Unit...
we're moving on to new material & you don't want to get behind!

As we continue in our new unit (new groups, new work model, new content) please continue to stay focused and work as efficiently as possible ( & no electronics during POGILS).
As with anything new, approach with an open mind and be willing to try and to make mistakes. 
💜 Don't worry - it's all good. Trust me!

Today's Tasks:
1) Finish 'Cell Types' POGIL and turn in
2) Complete 'Mitosis' POGIL and turn in
3) Get Chromebook, do 'notes & videos' homework below
    (due Monday!; everything in blue)

'Cell Types' & 'Mitosis' Notes & Videos: 

Cell Types

cell - basic structural unit of all living things that consists of cytoplasm enclosed in a membrane 

Cells are classified as either 'prokaryotic' or 'eukaryotic

prokaryote - no nucleus or membrane-bound organelles; examples: bacteria, blue-green algae, mycoplasma

eukaryote- any cell or organism with a clearly defined nucleus in which chromosomes (bodies containing the hereditary material) are located; also contain organelles that carry out specific functions; examples: plants, animals, protists, fungi

Mitosis

mitosis - a type of cell division in which one cell (the mother) divides to produce two new cells (the daughters) that are genetically identical to itself. In the cell cycle, mitosis is the part of the division process in which the DNA of the cell's nucleus is split into two equal sets of chromosomes.

Actively dividing eukaryotic cells pass through a series of stages known collectively as the cell cycle: two gap phases (G1 and G2); an S (synthesis) phase, in which the genetic material is duplicated; and an M phase, in which mitosis partitions the genetic material and the cell divides.

interphase - G1, S, and G2

chromosome - a threadlike structure of nucleic acids and protein found in the nucleus of most living cells, carrying genetic information in the form of genes.
