Biology 12

Today we finished off the urinary system with a kidney dissection and a microscope drawing of the kidneys.  We took some notes on acid/base balance in the body (found at the end of the respiratory chapter in your textbook).   

More Urinary System videos and practice below.  Make sure you do the practice test (answers are posted in yesterday's blog) Module questions are due tomorrow (answers were posted a few days ago).

Biology 12

 Today we watched crash in biology on the urinary system (part 1) and answered THESE questions.   

Next we took some more notes on urine formation by going through THESE notes.  Finally we worked on module questions (all are due on Wednesday- which is the QUEST day for urinary and respiratory systems) and worked on test reviews found HERE(1)and HERE(2)

Answers to the test reviews are HERE(1) and HERE(2) 

Part 2 Crash course is found below.

Today we started (and finished!) the urinary system.  We watched crash course in biology:

Next we got some notes on the excretory system found HERE.    We dissected the pig's respiratory and urinary systems.  Finally we completed the Module Questions up to and including (B) Kidney Structure and Function.  Answers to the module are found HERE.

Biology 12

 Today we finished off the respiratory system and then started the module questions on these.  Tomorrow you should have up to G1 completed.

Next we went to the computer lab to start on our body systems research projects.  Here are some examples of past projects:

Appendix (Well researched and cited in the author's own words)

Medical cannabis use for digestive system problems (Some areas not rewritten in the author's own words, interesting topics, but not all medical concepts are fully explained.  Some sources are not "reputable") 

Bell's palsy (Missing in-text citations and not referenced properly at the end.   Good topic with current information)  

Biology 12

Today we wrote the QUEST on Circulatory System.  Next we started the respiratory system with these notes from this power point.  Finish the worksheet on inspiration/expiration and internal and external respiration.  

Biology 12

 HELLLLLLO it is spring break, but if anyone is checking this.....There is a practice test for the circulatory system found HERE and .HERE is the answer key to the practice test.   

Today we did The Heart:  Sounds and Pressure lab.  No cigarettes were used in the process!   We only completed A and B in class before break.   Make sure you complete the table with your heart rate under different conditions.  Next we got our body systems mini research paper HERE.  Finally we were assigned all the module questions except H.   Check your answers HERE for module questions.  

Next we watched a short documentary on a heart attack.  What parts are accurate and what parts are not accurate?
