Assignment on Cell
We will be starting cells. I have an article for you to read and then answer the questions on the bottom. You will be using schoology to answer the questions. These are the question you will need to answer, however the directions will also be on Schoology.
Answer the questions that follow the article. They must be answered in either proper complete sentences or in proper paragraphs. I have also put a link here and wrote the questions. Cancer: Cells out of Control
1. Compare the role of tumor suppressor genes to proto-oncogenes.
2. What are HeLa cells and why are they important?
3. What is the relationship between carcinogens and mutations? How does this, in turn, affect the development of cancer?
4. Identify the parts on the picture at the top. [ DNA, Chromosome, Tumor Suppressor, Proto-Oncogene, Cell ]
5. In 1951, cells were taken from Henrietta Lacks and used for many years in research. Henrietta did not give permission for her cells to be used, the law did not require that. These cells have been used in over 60,000 research projects, but Henrietta's family has not received any compensation for contribution to the research. Do you think the law should be changed? Should people be compensated for donating their cells to science?

Watch the Following Video on Cells
Types of Cells
We will start by talking about cells and we will start with the different types of cells. There are two different types of cells that you will need to know. The video from the Amoeba Sisters will help with characteristics on the different types of cells. You will also need to fill out the worksheet on the different types of cells based off the Amoeba Sisters.

Worksheet on Cells and Organelles
Complete the following worksheet. This will help you in understanding organelles and where they are located in the cell. You can use this information for your foldable, but you will still have to come up with your own analogies. These are due on Thursday, November 2.
