Science 10

Today we built some bees!   You had to determine the sequence of amino acids needed to build a bee for our bee hive.  Some bees were "normal" and some had gene mutations.  Stay tuned for the effects on selective evolutionary pressure. 

Biology 12

Today we practiced the cell organelles.  Quiz on Tuesday on organelles (All of part B from the module) 

Science 10

Turn in Karyotype assignment today.  Next we took some notes on GENE mutations.  Make sure you understand the difference between chromosomal and gene mutations.

Science 10

Today we took some notes on Chromosomal mutations.  Next we started a project looking at human karyotypes.   Remember tomorrow there is a quiz on DNA, RNA, and transcription and translation.  Make sure you have your data booklet. 

Biology 12

Today we wrote the quiz on biomolecules.  Next we did some cell colouring and coloured and labelled an animal cell.  You also need to write out all the functions of these organelles.   Some great tunes were also heard:

Science 10

Today we practiced protein synthesis.  We took some notes on our note sheet from the power point found HERE.    Next we did some practice protein synthesis with THIS worksheet. 

Quiz on Wednesday is on protein synthesis as well as the structure of DNA and RNA.

Biology 12

Today we started the next unit on cell organelles.  We used the note sheet HERE and the power point.  We watched Hank of course! 

Reminder that TOMORROW you have a quiz on biomolecules--you may use your module questions.
