October 26-30

AP Biology

1. Complete extraction of key points from text about prokaryotes and eukaryotes
2. Find or create a chart describing the structure and function of cell parts

Collect notes from video

Journal Entry Assignment:

Create a Cell Analogy for a “Super Cell.” Include all cell parts found in plant and animal cells (but make note of which cell type they actually belong in).

Make sure the parts of the analogy work together like the parts of the cell.

Create a visual and written representation of your analogy in your journal. You can use paints, pens, pencil crayons or paste in paper, yarn, etc to create your SUPER CELL.

Video Guide

Biology 12

1. Add dehydration synthesis & hydrolysis reactions to journals
2. Add notes for Carbohydrates & to journals

Biochemistry Power point for Tuesday & Thursday

THURSDAY - you will have a TOC this day. The teacher will be going over proteins and nucleic acids with the class. You will also be given a review booklet to start practicing with.
