Circle the correct terms in the paragraph that follows In mitosis, one diploid/haploid cell produces two/four identical/unique cells. There is (are) one/two replications of the DNA followed by one/two divisions of the nucleus producing haploid/diploid cells. The result is growth or repair/ gamete production for the organism. In meiosis, one diploid/haploid cell produces two/four identical/unique cells. There is (are) one/two replications of the DNA followed by one/two divisions of the nucleus producing haploid/diploid cells. The result is growth or repair/ gamete production for the organism. 2.

15 A short overview of some key points from semester 1: We are genetically programmed to store fat. This tendency saved our ancestors from starvation during the winter or other times of famine. Compare the fat molecule below left to the carbohydrate molecule on the right. Which 2 atoms (elements) are there significantly more of in the fat molecule? How does that relate to the amount of energy stored in each molecule? You have learned that results from a loss of control of the cell cycle. What are some things that can lead to the mutations that ultimately cause the loss of control? In the lab this quarter you viewed the results of varying solution concentrations on the mass of cells due to the loss or gain of water. Use the data below to calculate the percent change in mass. Then, graph & ans ques.
