Homework: a) Quiz on Mitosis (No notes. See Online Reviews.)
b) Brief writeups of the Replication of Eukaryotic Cells Lab are due on Friday April 4.
The writeups should include:
i) labelled drawings of plant and animal cells in the 5 stages of division (interphase --->telophase). Use all labels from the handout that apply to each drawing. Some labels are found on all stages, some labels are on only a couple drawings.
ii) Data tables of class data and final converted numbers (use the equation from page 140/141 of the lab books)
iii) Provide a graph of the final class averages. Plot hours at the stage vs stage.
iv) Write a brief conclusion stating the final calculated times for each stage. Provide several explanations if you can why the data differs from group to group, class to class!
