PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
It is important to promote writing across the disciplines. Sometimes it is difficult to come up with writing prompts. These task cards are specific to secondary science and they cover Genetic disorders and mutations. The questions cover DNA mutations, diseases, causes of mutations, and evolutionary impact of mutations.
This activity can be used as a bell ringer, pop quiz or closing. It is a good exercise to make the brief students write longer and the novel writers write shorter answers.
There are 32 writing prompts with instructions as to how many sentences they should write. You can adjust the pages per sheet setting to print multiple cards per sheets of paper.
This activity is a great follow up to Genetic Disorders: Mistakes in the DNA code, DNA mutations Power Point and Worksheets

This worksheet set has the answer key included and can be used alone or with the Genetic Engineering Power point I have available in my store. You can purchase it as a bundle with the Genetic Engineering Power point too.
This bundle includes a power point and student worksheets which follow the power point with key.
Students will cover DNA replication in detail with all the enzymes such as polymerases and helicase. Students have diagrams to color and questions to answer. Complimentary DNA base pairing is also reviewed.
Students will also learn about protein synthesis; DNA transcription and DNA translation. Again the student worksheets follow right along and have labeling and questions for the students to answer. Students will learn how to covers template DNA into a mRNA and from mRNA to codons and finally amino acids.
The worksheets can also be used as foldables and placed into a composition interactive notebook.
Viruses often boggle young students' minds. They are not living so can not be called dead. This power point goes over the reasons viruses are not categorized as living, explains their methods for reproduction, the lytic and lysogenic cycles.
HIV reproduction in the human body is covered in detail along with the five drugs used in its treatment.
There are a few slides dedicated to Ebola / Marburg, why they are hard to find and how the primate population of the world is being affected.
The latest Zika virus is also presented and why it is detrimental to developing babies in the womb.
Multiple common viruses are also displayed and discussed. Students will be able to distinguish viruses from living things and understand their methods of reproduction. Students will also be able to identify viruses based on their structure. Students will also understand that viruses infect all forms of life.
This is MEGA bundle featuring ALL my cell products, prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

Biology TEKs:
(4) Science concepts. The student knows that cells are the basic structures of all living things with specialized parts that perform specific functions and that viruses are different from cells. The student is expected to:
(A) compare and contrast prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells;
(B) investigate and explain cellular processes, including homeostasis, energy conversions, transport of molecules, and synthesis of new molecules; and
(C) compare the structures of viruses to cells, describe viral reproduction, and describe the role of viruses in causing diseases such as human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and influenza.
(5) Science concepts. The student knows how an organism grows and the importance of cell differentiation. The student is expected to:
(A) describe the stages of the cell cycle, including deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) replication and mitosis, and the importance of the cell cycle to the growth of organisms;
(B) examine specialized cells, including roots, stems, and leaves of plants; and animal cells such as blood, muscle, and epithelium;
(C) describe the roles of DNA, ribonucleic acid (RNA), and environmental factors in cell differentiation; and
(D) recognize that disruptions of the cell cycle lead to diseases such as cancer.
Next Generation Science Standards:
The foldable covers cell cycle, G0, G1, S, G2, and mitosis in both animal and plant cells. There are note taking areas for how mitosis is the driving force behind growth, development, regeneration and asexual reproduction. The foldable also covers tumors both benign and malignant (cancer).
This foldable goes along well with Cell Cycle and Mitosis Power Point.
The instructions for assemble and answer key are included. You can easily glue this foldable into a composition notebook, spiral notebook or binder.
This extensive editable power point goes through the Chordate phylum and presents while giving an detailed explanation of the adaptations that evolved which led to the diverse sub-phylum of the vertebrate.

It can also be used to make studying flashcards.
The cards are square and saved as a pdf. By adjusting your page count per printed page you can adjust the size of your cards. I suggest laminating them and keeping them year after year. I use one set per lab table. So I printed 7 sets. You can have the students compete within a single table or between groups.
These are the pairs in the memory game:
