3 Activity 2: Protein Processing Cycle > See > Animation - Protein Synthesis > Section Compare the primary, secondary and tertiary structure of a polypeptide. 2. Compare the transport of cellular enzymes, membrane proteins, and secretory proteins. 3

4 Activity 3: Protein Processes Cycle > Do > Interactive Exercise: Synthesize and Transport a Protein 1. What is the correct mrna sequence if the DNA base sequence is: TACCGATTTCCGA? 2. What is the base sequence for the start-codon on the mrna strand? 3. What would the anti-codon sequence be for the codon UGA. 4

5 Activity 4: Protein Processes Cycle > Do > Interactive Exercise: Protein-Producing Processes 1. What is the role of the Golgi complex in protein production? 2. Where does transcription take place? 3. Where is a strand of mrna translated? 4. Describe the process of exocytosis. 5

During which phase of the cell cycle are chromosomes not visible? What is uncoiled and uncondensed DNA called? 2. If someone wanted to take a picture of the chromosomes, during which phase would it be ideal? Why? 3. Cell division is not complete in telephase. What still needs to happen? 4. When the chromosomes are pulled apart, what are they called? 9

10 Activity 9: Mitosis Match-up Navigation: WileyPlus > Read, Study, and Practice > Lab Exercise 4. Cell Structure and Cell Cycle > Do > Interactive Exercise: Mitosis Match-up 1. What structure pulls the chromosomes apart? 2. How many DNA molecules are present in each cell during metaphase? 3. How many DNA molecules are present in each cell after mitosis and cytokinesis are complete? 10

11 Activity 10: Meiosis Cycle > See > Animation - Gametogenesis > Sections Define meiosis. 2. What is the difference between diploid and haploid cells. 3. What phase is lacking between meiosis I and meiosis II, and therefore, what process doesn t take place? 11

12 Activity 11: Meiosis Match-up Navigation: WileyPlus > Read, Study, and Practice > Lab Exercise 4. Cell Structure and Cell Cycle > Do > Interactive Exercise: Meiosis Match-up 1.
