STUDY GUIDE INTEGRATED SCIENCE 10 PLANT UNIT DO YOU/CAN YOU…. 1. Understand that both plants and animals (eukaryotes) undergo a similar process for cellular division/reproduction? Both plant and animal cells undergo mitosis and meiosis. In plants‚ there is an alternation of generations; the gametophyte generation‚ where haploid gametes (pollen and ovule; sperm and egg) are produced via mitosis. Then the sporophyte generation combines these two into spores via meiosis‚ resulting in a diploid

The Biology of Mind Neuron Communication Neuron is a nerve cell‚ basic building block our nerve system Neurons consists in: Dendrites : neurons bushy branches and it listens Axons: Tube that passes the messages and it speaks – transmit Action potential : is a neural impulse‚ brief electrical charge that travels down an axon. Threshold: is the level of stimulation required to trigger a neural impulse Myelin Sheath covers an axon and some neurons Synapse : is the junction

Biology has been the most interesting and appealing subject I have taken. Taking the course as a freshman‚ and the AP course as a junior‚ has really influenced my choice of a potential major. The course taught me how to be more studious and efficient with the information I retain. It is a puzzle‚ in which you piece together process by process‚ step by step. AP Biology also enhanced my collaboration skills. The course is very rigorous and challenging‚ and I struggled often trying to do it all by myself
