(Mitosis).
1.
Describe the structural
organization of the genome in terms of chromatin and chromosomes.
2.
Overview the major
events of cell division to allow the production of identical cells.
3.
List the phases of the
cell cycle and describe the sequence of events that occurs during each phase.
4.
Recognize the phases of
mitosis from diagrams or micrographs.
5.
Draw or describe the
spindle apparatus including centrosomes, nonkinetochore microtubules,
kinetochore microtubules, asters, and centrioles (in animal cells).
6.
Understand the parts of
a chromosome including sister chromatids, centromere, and kinetochore.
7.
Describe what
characteristic changes occur in the spindle apparatus during each phase of mitosis.
8.
Explain the current
model for poleward chromosomal movement.
9.
Compare cytokinesis in
plants and animals.
10. Describe the roles of checkpoints in the cell-cycle
control system.
11. Describe the internal and external factors which
influence the cell-cycle control system.
