Academic Biology- We start our week with a Punnett square Test on Monday. As we leave pea plants behind our focus will shift to humans with Tuesdays lecture evaluating humans as subjects for genetic study. Wednesday we will lecture pedigrees and reinforce that topic with a worksheet for Thursday that will be due Friday. Friday we will investigate the hemophilia connection to the royal family with a RS that will be due Monday.
AP Biology Monday will begin with a discussion on the cell cycle in prokaryotic cells and follow up with a general overview of sexual verses asexual reproduction methods in plants, animals, fungus and bacteria. Lecture will carry over to Tuesday with hopefully some time to review for Wednesdays test on "cells". Thursday we will intro our new topic photosynthesis with an overview of the electromagnetic spectrum and the role of pigments in the food making process. Following lecture we wil set up a chromatography lab that will be used to determine Rf in class on Friday. Completed lab report will be due Wednesday of the following week.
