2.2 – CELL AND NUCLEAR DIVISION
COURSE DESCRIPTION
There are two different types of cell cycles: mitotic and meiotic. Cell cycles are tightly regulated at various checkpoints. The mitotic cel cycle is necessary for growth and repair while the meiotic cell cycle is necessary to generate gametes. Meiosis gives rise to genetic variation between gametes through Crossing over of homologous chromosomes and the independent assortment of bivalents.
Learning Outcomes
Candidates should be able to:
- describe the events that occur during the mitotic cell cycle and the main stages of mitosis (including the behaviour of chromosomes, nuclear envelope, cell membrane and centrioles)
- explain the significance of the mitotic cell cycle (including growth, repair and asexual reproduction) and the need to regulate it tightly (knowledge that dysregulation of checkpoints of cell division can result in uncontrolled cell division and cancer is required, but detail of the mechanism is not required)
- describe the events that occur during the meiotic cell cycle and the mainstages of meiosis (including the behaviour chromosomes, nuclear envelope, cell membrane and centrioles) (names of the main stages are expected, but not the sub-divisions of prophase)
- explain the significance of the meiotic cell cycle (including how meiosis and random fertilization can lead to variation)
Use the knowledge gained in this section in new situations or to solve related problems

Wrist Strengthening
While your wrists will certain get stronger from practice and grow accustomed to the stress of the skill, a basic amount of wrist strengthening exercises for several weeks can only help things. I’d recommend working wrist curls and reverse wrist curls for around 6-10 reps for 3 sets. I also strongly recommend trying some sledgehammer levering. Work in 2-3 sets of 3-5 reps. In particular, exercises 1 and 3 are fantastic for building wrist strength and they are much harder than they look! Start with them to get the hang of sledgehammer work before you progress to the other two exercises. I don’t want somebody putting a hole through their floor or their face because they rushed things!Section 3: Sketching out Ideas
- The main objective to the sketching process is to generate super rough thumbnail sketches of what we feel best visually communicates the highlighted words from our mind maps.
- Take as much time as you need for this step — this might be 10 minutes or it might be 10 days.
- Personally, I like to work quickly and try not to analyze or elaborate too much.
- Now, that doesn't mean you should only create a handful of sketches.
- Even though this step only took a couple of hours, I was still able to put over 100 thumbnails on paper.
- The whole point of this process is to flush out the bad ideas and narrow down the good ones until we find that one layout that really speaks to us.
- Also, keep in mind the project brief and have your list in front of you as a reference to avoid getting sidetracked.
- Remember—detail is not needed. Simply flush out the bad ideas and find a great direction.
- Once I feel I have a good direction with the sketches, I'm now ready to take a quick photo with my phone and import it into Illustrator.
