Students commonly confuse the two forms of cell division, so this revision lesson has been designed to address those mistakes and misconceptions. The PowerPoint and accompanying resources have been planned to challenge the students on their understanding of the details of points 1.2.1, 1.2.2 and 6.1.2 of the AQA GCSE biology and combined science specifications.
The lesson goes through each of the three stages of the cell cycle including mitosis, to ensure that students can describe the key events and state the outcome in terms of the daughter cells. The lesson contains a series of tasks which include exam questions, discussions and a quiz which allow the students to assess their understanding. The final part of the lesson focuses on meiosis and specifically the differences to mitosis in terms of the number of cell divisions, the gametes formed, and their genetic make up.
This lesson has been designed to be used for revision purposes in the lead up to the GCSE exams or in preparation for an end of topic test or mocks.
