300 Why do cells divide?
300 How is the cell cycle related to cell reproduction?
300 How does aberration of the mechanism relate to cancer?
300 What is the relationship between cell development and stem cells?
300 
400 1. Asexual modes of reproduction
400 2. Factors influencing the cell cycle including SA/Vol
400 3. Phases of the cell cycle
400 4. Cell cycle aberrations (i.e. cancer)
400 5. Stem cell technology and its role in development of differentiated tissue
400 6. Phases of cell reproduction
500 Students in Biology will develop the ability to:
500 1. Identify phases of reproduction using Allium Root Tip prepared slides,
500 2. Relate the SA/Vol ratio to the cell's capacity to interact with its environment,
500 3. Identify the consequence of uncontrolled cell growth,
500 4. Confirm and draw conclusions of the potential for stem cell research to resolve problems associated with differentiated cell repair due to damage/breakdown.
600 1. Analysis of surface area/volume in relation to nutrient absorption
600 2. Observation of allium root tips for cell cycle stage identification
700 Objective/subjective testing (40-50: 60-50 percent)
700 Laboratory experiences--
700    Allium root tip slides (for phase ID and term)
700    Surface area/volume studies
700 Cooperative activities
700 Class discussion
