Writing a summary:
Your younger sister comes barging into your room crying something about, “meiosis? mitosis? chromosomes? chromatids? genes? alleles? What does it all mean?” Being the great older sibling that you are, you agree to make a study guide for her that explains all the terms, how they are related, and why they are important. Your study guide includes a written summary and your hand drawn diagrams to help put all the terms into context.
