Chemistry 11

Today we wrote the Unit 2 Test on Naming and Writing Formulas for Compounds. 

Took some notes and watched a short video on the mole concept. 

Homework:  Hebden Read pg. 77-79 do Ex: #1-5

Biology 12

Today we corrected the DNA structure, function and replication handout.

Took notes from the power point on transcription and translation to make proteins.

Unit 1 Topic 2 Booklet questions (B) DNA replication and section B:  protein synthesis (A) are due next class.

Biology 12

Today we wrote a homework Quiz based on Section A of DNA unit Review.

We took notes on Recombinant DNA and then did a cuttin' and pastin' activity to show DNA replication.   Make sure you know which enzymes are involved in DNA replication.  

Homework:  DNA Structure, Function and Replication handout.

Today we practiced and practiced some more naming and writing formulas for compounds.   Make sure you can name ionic and covalent compounds as well as the special way of naming acids.  

I collected Lab 2E.    Tomorrow is the Test and Unit 2 Review Due

Biology 12

Today we started DNA structure and replication.   We took notes from the Power Point slides and then extracted the DNA from strawberries. 

You should have turned your lab in and then completed the Module Questions- Section A on DNA structure.
