Students will simulate the movement of chromosomes during cell division. Using a physical manipulative like Chromosocks provides visual clues of student concepts that can be used to address common chromosome misconceptions  \nLearning Objectives:  \nDefine haploid and diploid  \nIdentify chromosome number at several points during mitosis Identify mitosis as the division that produces identical ‘daughter cells’Model mitosis  \nCorrectly label centromere, chromosome (both replicated and non-replicated) and chromatids in a diagram  \nMaterials  \n2 Bags of Chromosocks for each pair of students. Each bag contains:  \n1 white ChromoSock with an orange stripe labeled “F”  \n1 white ChromoSock with an orange stripe labeled “f”  \n1 beige ChromoSock with a green stripe labeled “B”  \n1 beige ChromoSock with a green stripe labeled “b”  \n1 grey ChromoSock with a black stripe labeled “N”  \n1 grey ChromoSock with a black stripe labeled “n”Rubber bands  \nChromoSock Worksheet  \nTimeframe  \nThis activity is designed to be completed in a single class period.  \n© 2016 HudsonAlpha Institute for Biotechnology  \nIntroducing Mitosis  \n1. Distribute a bag containing one set of ChromoSocks to each pair (group) of students.  \nRemind students that DNA is found in the nucleus of each cell. Somatic (all body cells, except reproductive cells) cells undergo mitosis.  \n2. Direct students to remove the ChromoSocks and arrange in pairs. Chromosomes, like socks, occur in pairs. These pairs are called homologs. Students will draw the cell and label the chromosome ploidy and number. Students are to use an “I” shape to represent a single chromosome; later in the activity an “)(”shape will be used to represent a replicated chromosome.  \nRemind students that each individual has one complete set of chromosomes, half of which came from mother and the other half from father. Point out that although the socks may appear slightly different, one can easily determine which two should be paired. Ask students if they can identify which of each pair of chromosomes came from the father and which came from the mother. Answer: No.  \nAsk students how many total chromosomes are present? Answer: 6(six) .  \nAsk how many pairs of chromosomes are present. Answer: 3(three). These cells are diploid and the diploid chromosome number is 6 for this hypothetical organism.  \nUsing the chart of organisms below, explore concepts of diploid and haploid chromosome number with students.  \nChromosome number across various organisms  \n\n| Organism | Common Name | Diploid Chromosome \\# |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Giraffa camelopardalis | Giraffe | 62 |\n| Panthera leo | Lion | 38 |\n| Zea mays | Maize/Corn | 20 |\n| Ananas comosus | Pineapple | 50 |\n| Lumbricus terrestris | Earthworm | 36 |\n\n3. The Chromosocks will now be used to model the phases of mitosis.  \nAsk students what must occur before a cell can enter any type of cell division. Answer: DNA must be copied or replicated so that each cell receives a copy of the master instructions.  \n© 2016 HudsonAlpha Institute for Biotechnology  \n4. Distribute a bag containing a second set of ChromoSocks to each pair (group) of students. The bag contains the materials needed to replicate the Chromosocks.  \n5. Discuss replicated chromosomes. Students will choose a replicated chromosome in their sketch and label the following: centromere, chromosome and chromatid.  \nIntroduce the vocabulary terms “replicated chromosome” and “sister chromatid”. Point out that although the replicated chromosome contains two sister chromatids, it still behaves as a single chromosome during most of mitosis.  \n6. Direct students to match the materials from the second set with the sock chromosome pairs on their desk from the first bag. Attach pairs of socks with rubber bands simulating the connection between sister chromatids at the centromere.","cbCaiaX7z6Ce9xkz","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiaX7z6Ce9xkz","pdf",345398,"English","# Overview\n# Learning Objectives\n# Materials\n# Introducing Mitosis\n## DNA replication and replicated chromosomes\n## Metaphase and anaphase modeling","[{\"question\":\"What are the main learning objectives of the ChromoSock mitosis activity?\",\"answer\":\"Students define haploid and diploid, identify chromosome numbers at stages of mitosis, model mitosis to show identical daughter cells, and correctly label centromeres, chromosomes, and chromatids in diagrams.\"},{\"question\":\"How do students model replicated chromosomes using the ChromoSocks?\",\"answer\":\"Students match the materials from a second sock set to their initial chromosome pairs, then connect sister chromatid pairs at the centromere using rubber bands.
