Questions about the Mitosis and Meiosis poster

What’s on the Mitosis and Meiosis poster?

MITOSIS against MEIOSIS, side by side. MITOSIS: Growth and repair; MITOSIS: One division; MITOSIS: Two identical daughter cells; MITOSIS: Same chromosome number as parent; MITOSIS: Happens in body cells; MEIOSIS: Making sex cells; MEIOSIS: Two divisions; MEIOSIS: Four different daughter cells; MEIOSIS: Half the chromosome number; MEIOSIS: Happens in reproductive organs; Mitosis copies. Meiosis halves and shuffles — which is why siblings differ.. Halving in meiosis is what stops the chromosome number doubling every generation.

Who is the Mitosis and Meiosis poster for?

Mitosis and Meiosis is filed under 8th Grade (ages 13–14), so it matches what that year asks a child to remember. It is equally useful to an older student revisiting science, and to the parent or teacher answering the question at the kitchen table.

When should you use the Mitosis and Meiosis poster?

Count the chromosomes at the end. That is the fastest way to tell them apart. A wall chart earns its place by being glanceable from where the work is happening, so Mitosis and Meiosis belongs on the wall where that science work actually happens, within glancing distance, rather than filed away.

What other posters go with Mitosis and Meiosis?

Natural Selection, Alkali Metals and Alkaline Earth Metals sit alongside Mitosis and Meiosis in the 8th Grade set. Printed together they make a wall rather than a single sheet, which is how a reference set actually gets used.Natural SelectionAlkali MetalsAlkaline Earth Metals
