Draw a quick sketch of mitosis next to meiosis I and meiosis II. You can do it on paper, or on your screen if you have a touchscreen. Compare and contrast them to highlight 3 similarities and 3 differences. Make sure your diagram is CLEARLY labeled
Now draw meiosis with a cell that is diploid and has 3 different sets of chromosomes (that means there is a chromosome 1, 2, and 3, with 2 copies of each). Make sure that chromosomes 1, 2, and 3 are visually distinct
: Draw a sketch of meiosis but add a nondisjunction event to it (you can pick meiosis I or II). For each final daughter cell, CLEARLY identify whether there are any issues with it – does it have the correct set of chromosomes? If it was combined with another gamete to create a zygote, will the resulting zygote have too many or too few chromosomes? Is it missing any chromosomes completely?

Step 1:
Perform research to find at least two articles on the following topic: “The effects of climate change on polar bear populations”. You must find one article based on primary research and one based on secondary research. After reviewing the articles, recreate and complete the table below which you will submit for feedback.
| Article 1 | Article 2 | |
|---|---|---|
| Source | ||
| Purpose of the periodical (news website, newspaper, journal) |
||
| Type of source: primary or secondary? | ||
| Type of article: scholarly or non-scholarly | ||
| Type of language used in article (describe) | ||
| Intended audience - who is the article written for? | ||
| Main point or main message of the article | ||
| How does the title catch attention? Does it accurately depict the main message? |
||
| List any opinions stated in the article. (Who’s opinion are they?) |
||
| How many authors? | ||
| How many people interviewed in the article (not applicable if this is original research) |
||
| How many sources listed in the bibliography or sources list? |
Step 2:
Write a 1-paragraph summary of the comparison. Which one is the primary source? How are primary and secondary sources different from each other? Similar to each other? How can you tell which is which? You will submit this paragraph for feedback.

DNA replication requires many enzymes to accomplish the process successfully. This results in a replication process that is known to be bi-directional, semi-conservative and semi-discontinuous. You discover a new prokaryotic organism that lacks the gene coding for an RNA polymerase I enzyme, and therefore this enzyme is not made in this species. Additionally, the DNA polymerase III enzyme from this organism lacks any 3’ to 5’ nuclease activity but has 5’ to 3’ nuclease activity. Based on what you know about DNA replication and the functions of DNA polymerase I and DNA polymerase III, discuss the effect of these changes on DNA replication in this organism. Please explain your answer in full.
