Today we took some notes on GENETICS REVIEW and Punnett Squares and did a lab on Allelic Frequencies in bunnies. The review power point is found HERE (starting on slide #6) a Punnett Square review video is below
Next we did THIS lab. I have included one with the results for you to graph if you weren't here for the lab itself. Next we did THIS Punnett Square practice and got THIS review for the evolution unit. Evolution will be combined with the next unit on TAXONOMY and the test will be on both of these after March break.
Today we went downtown as part of our local/sustainable business tour. We had Tara and Kevan from Terra Vita Cafe talk to us about their farm and food and we ate some yummy stuff!
We also worked on our Earth Day presentations and emailed me some ideas/pictures for the project.
Today we finished off the notes on THIS worksheet with THIS power point. Next we filled THIS in using the video below.
For the Evolution UNIT
1) Explain the 5 pieces of evidence for evolution
2) Explain the 5 principles of Natural Selection
3) Explain the 5 ways that populations can evolve
Today we started a lab: Solute Concentration of Potatoes lab. The lab is found HERE. If you were away, you will have to collect the data from someone.
We also worked on quest review for our quest coming up on Friday- This is on Cell Membrane and transport and Enzymes. See last class blog entry for the practice quest and answers.
Today we took notes on Natural Selection . The note sheet from the first section is HERE and the power point is HERE. The second section note sheet is HERE and power point HERE. Next we finished off our lab from Friday. The lab is HERE and data table below. See the histograms video for how to make the graph. This lab will be due on THURSDAY, March 13th.
