(a) State four differences between cell division through mitosis and meiosis. [4 marks] (b) The cell division that takes place in the body parts of a student is shown above. Explain how you would build a concept based on the information above. Your explanation should include the following. (i) Identify two common features (ii) Build an initial concept (iii) Give one example of body part that undergoes this cell division and one example of body part that does not undergo this cell division. Give reason for each example. (iv) Explain the actual concept [6 marks] 18
MODULE 2 - ANSWERS 1. B 2. C 3. D 4. C 5. D 6. B 7. D 8. B 9. A 10. D 1. (a) Meiosis (b) Replication of chromosome // Exchange genetic materials (c) Testis and ovary (d) To produce gametes // ensure the number of chromosomes in an organisms being kept constant from one generation to another generation. (e) Anther // ovary 2. (a) 45 chromosomes (b) Turner s Syndrome (c) Under develop ovary // no menstrual cycle // sterile (d) Female (e) Albinism Down Syndrome Albino Sindrom Down Colour Blindness Buta Warna
a) Mitosis Cell division happens once Crossing over does not occur Two new cells are produced The number of chromosomes in progeny is similar to parent cell Meiosis Cell division happens twice Crossing over occur Four new cells are produced The number of chromosomes in progeny is half of the parent cell b) Two common characteristics Initial concept Other example Non-example Actual concept cell division occurs in somatic cell cell division produces two daughter cells cell division for growth Cell division which occurs in somatic cells and produces two daughter cells is mitosis Heart because it is a somatic cell Testis / Ovary because it is a reproductive cell Mitosis is cell division which occurs in somatic cells and produces two daughter cells 20
