Curated OER
Meiosis
In this meiosis worksheet, students read about the phases of meiosis I and meiosis II and simulate the chromosomes and chromatids in each phase. Students draw the changes in each phase and produce 4 cells with half the DNA in the end.

Meiosis Worksheet-Knowing the Steps in Creating Your Gametes
In this meiosis worksheet, learners cut out diagrams of the stages of meiosis and paste them in the proper order next to the appropriate stage. They record the major events taking place at each stage.
Curated OER
Sets of Chromosomes
In this chromosome worksheet, students answer eighteen questions about chromatids, chromosomes, types of reproduction, haploid and diploid cells and zygotes.
Curated OER
Genetics
In this worksheet, students will answer 4 fill in the blank statements about Mendelian inheritance and meiosis. Then students will use Punnett squares to answer three short answer questions. Students will match 8 genetics vocabulary...
Curated OER
Sociobiology: Heredity Factors
Students examine DNA replication and how proteins are synthesized from DNA codes and continue to explore the effects of genetics in additional lessons. Among the topics covered are: protein synthesis, cell chemistry, environmental...
Curated OER
Genetics and Heredity: The Next Generation
Tenth graders work in teams to order events of DNA transcription and translation protein synthesis. In the second lesson, they put the steps of mitosis and meiosis in order using a concept map poster. They use modeling clay to create...
Curated OER
Meiosis and Sexual Reproduction
Eighth graders are able to define meiosis. They are able to compare and contrast meiosis and mitosis. Students are able to state the phases of meiosis. They complete a K-W-L chart on meiosis and mitosis. Students talk about meiosis...

Turkeys in the Cell -- The Meiosis Square Dance
Learners identify the differences between the processes of mitosis and meiosis and explain how meiosis generates new combinations for natural selection. They illustrate the processes by square dancing.
Curated OER
Time Conceptualization
High schoolers use this activity to establish a new mode of reference to the conceptualization of time. To present hominid evolution in terms of millions of years and endosymbiosis of eukaryotes in billions of years carries little...
Curated OER
Turkeys in the Cell--The Meiosis Square Dance
Students identify synapsis as the key event in meiosis. They explain how synapsis leads to the formation of haploid gametes. Exploration of the differences between the processes of mitosis and meiosis occur. In accordance, explanations...
Curated OER
THE EMBRYO GAME
Students develop a game similar to BINGO. They compare the reproduction and embryo development of different organisms while initiating group and cooperative learning. They constuct cards from vocabulary words.
Curated OER
Modeling Mitosis and Meiosis
Learners construct and manipulate models of mitosis and meiosis and compare/contrast them. They create the models using index cards and yarn, interpret diagrams and photographs, and summarize written descriptions.
Curated OER
How Do Organisms Reproduce
Students examine the difference between mitosis and meiosis, and describe the steps involved in meiosis and the significance of each step. They create a diploid nucleus containing two pairs of chromosomes using clay.
Curated OER
How You Become a Unique Individual
Students investigate how traits are passed from parents to offspring via meiosis and fertilization. They recognize that the combination of alleles forming a gamete is random.
Curated OER
Meiosis
Using yarn and chenille stems, lab groups collaborate to model mitosis and meiosis. Brief background information and a vaguely written procedure comprise this outline. More instruction needs to be provided to learners about cell division...
Curated OER
Reviewing Mitosis/Mitosis
There are technically two presentations in this collection of slides. The first presentation is a single-slide comparison of plant cell division and animal cell division. The second focuses on the steps of meiosis and the genetic...
Curated OER
Lesson 9: Visual Meiosis
Learners create a fictional organism. In this biology lesson, students predict the traits of resulting offspring. They complete activity worksheet and discuss answers in class.
Curated OER
AP Biology Lab Review
A seventy-two slide PowerPoint that reviews several lab explorations done in an AP Biology course. For each lab there is a description, concepts, and conclusions. Many pictures and graphics make this visually appealing, but it would not...
Curated OER
Chromosomes
Students explore genetics, chromosomes and DNA. In this genetics lesson plan students design a chromosome and identify a family tree through genetics.
Curated OER
Human Genome Debate
Students study the Human Genome Project and participate in a debate about the project. In this genome activity, students review the terms related to the genome project, take a poll about the ethical issues of the project, and watch a...

More on Meiosis
For this meiosis worksheet, students fill in the blank that describes the process of meiosis. Students also draw the process of meiosis.
Curated OER
Meiosis
In this meiosis worksheet, student complete the blanks describing the process of meiosis. Students draw a diagram of homologous chromosomes.
Curated OER
Life Cycles of Mosses, Ferns, and Conifers
In this plant life cycle worksheet, learners compare the life cycles of mosses, ferns, and conifers. This worksheet has 15 fill in the blank and 10 short answer questions.
Curated OER
Sexual Reproduction and Meiosis
In this biology worksheet, 9th graders label each of the diagrams representing the stages of meiosis. Then they describe how gametes vary from other cells in the body. Students also explain what happens during the process of fertilization.
