Chemistry 11

Today we completed the last topic of the Mole Unit:  Empirical Formula

We did some empirical formula practice problems (pink sheet) and turned them in.

Due tomorrow:  Mole Conversions Worksheet

Chemistry 12

Today we did a worksheet showing mRNA moving out of the nucleus and proteins being built.

We also started research on our genetic disease project.

Practice test for DNA test also given out. 

Biology 12

Today we finished off the Power Point Notes on DNA.   We finished recombinant DNA and PCR notes. 

We finished our "cutin' and pastin' DNA replication sheet and then did another sheet showing DNA transcription to make RNA. 

Homework:   Finish off all plasmid, RNA and proteins questions in your module booklet.    Tomorrow we will have a quiz on RNA and protein synthesis.

Chemistry 11

Today we got back our Unit 2 Tests.   Well done!    A couple of 100%s!!

We took notes on moles and drew a moles are the heart of Chemistry diagram.

We figured out how to convert back and forth from moles to grams or from particles to moles.

 Hebden Homework:  pg. 80 Ex: 6 a-d       pg. 82 Ex: 8 a-d      and Ex: 9 a-d.

Second half we did a "mini lab" on calculating relative masses. 

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.
