 Hi Bio besties!

Thanks for joining in on the Career Day with me.  Thanks for your open and candid discussions!

To Review for the Bacteria Quiz:  Make sure you have completed the bacteria unit review found HERE.  Use the textbook to define and give examples for the definitions.  

Practice quizzes are found at the following links:

https://www.proprofs.com/quiz-school/quizshow.php?title=introduction-to-bacteria-notes-review&q=12(This one is good because you can choose more than one right answer)

Here is an MCAT review for anyone applying to medicine.  You can answer some of these though!  Do #1, 2, 3, 5, 9 and 10  

Below is a good one, except it uses the old term.  Instead of Archaea- it uses Archaebacteria https://softschools.com/quizzes/biology/bacteria/quiz2299.html

Today we did a lab on Antibiotics vs. Bacteria.  The lab is found HERE.  Next we got our Bacteria Unit review.  This is due on Wednesday, April 23rd- the same day as the Bacteria Quest.

Anatomy and Physiology 12

Today we continued with the notes on DIGESTIVE system.  These are on the power point from last class.  We are also working through the module questions for digestion.  The module questions are found HERE

Life Science 11

Today we finished off the notes from the power point found HERE. (slide 29-44)  Next we did some reading from the book and practice questions- these are:  

F.3 Concept Check pg. 63 #1-3a, 5                F.4 Concept Check pg. 63 #3, 4

 

Anatomy and Physiology 12

 Today we  continued to work on the Digestive System notes from last class.  See the blog post from Thursday for details.

Today we got back some did a self evaluation for the term.  If you didn't fill one out, see me on Monday.  Next we watched a video below on aseptic technique and making bacterial streak plates and we made our own streak plates

Turn in bacteria colouring sheet and Abundance and distribution of Bacteria lab.

  

Anatomy and Physiology 12

Today we went over the worksheet from last class found HERE on human body systems.   Make sure you have also finished the digestive system colouring HERE.  

Next we started the digestive system notes HERE with THIS powerpoint.

Today we started our next unit:  BACTERIA.  We started off filling in THIS note-sheet with THIS power point.  Next we did THIS colouring sheet.  Finally we finished off the Distribution and Abundance of Bacteria lab by writing a conclusion.  This lab is due on FRIDAY.  Some tips for Conclusion:

How to Write a Lab Report Conclusion

1. Restate the purpose of the experiment and your procedures.
2. Describe the results or findings and if they support your hypothesis.
3. Mention what you've learned from the experiment.
4. Note any errors or uncertainties that could affect the results.
   5. Propose experiments for the future to gain more findings

We also watched the videos below and did 1 think we knew, 1 we learned and 1 question.
