Environmental Science 12

Make sure you have turned in your drawdown solutions project:). 

Today we finished off taking notes from the Draw down solutions video:  Reducing sources.  Make sure you have notes that identify the major causes of greenhouse gas emissions in the world.

Next we looked at some moss (water) under the microscope and tried to find some tardigrades (water bears)  Video below:




Life Science 11

Today we talked about the virus unit and what you need to review before the quiz tomorrow.    The review questions:  Viruses:  Structure and Nature are due tomorrow.

Major ideas in the unit: 1) Structure of a virus particle.  2) Lytic vs. lysogenic cycles (explain steps in the lytic cycle).     3) Immune System -1st, 2nd and 3rd lines of defense

Next we took some short notes on evolution and finally did a short lab:  Natural Variations Lab.  Make sure you bring this back tomorrow to complete the questions and graph.
