Today in class we went over a diagram explaining how Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration. This shows how plants use Photosynthesis to turn solar energy into chemical energy (glucose) and then the process of Cellular Respiration takes the glucose and converts it into mechanical energy which is ATP. We then did the Photosynthesis Virtual Lab found in Canvas. Make sure to complete these in order to move onto the lab next time on Cellular Respiration.

Today in class we will be taking the Mastery Check on Enzymes, Macromolecules and CHNOPS. Here is a link to some videosto help you review. Students can also use the quizlet made for vocabularyof this section. Once we have completed the Mastery Check, please evaluate your grade, citizenship and review the survey you took on how well you prepared for this Mastery Check. We will then be moving onto Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration.
Today in class we reviewed the Enzyme lab that was completed last time. Students were to graph and answer the questions in the lab to review how pH, temperature and concentration effected the reaction rate of the enzymes. We then went over the notes on Hydrolysis and Dehydration Synthesis. Students should be preparing for a Mastery Check next time on these things as well as CHNOPS and macromolecules. To do so, please review the material in Canvas including the Quizlet covering vocabulary and then go onto the Chemistry Survey to evaluate your confidence in taking the Mastery Check.
Today in class we will be doing a lab called Toothpickase where we will see how temperature, pH and concentration effect the reactive rate of enzymes. Once we complete this review of Enzymes we will learn about Dehydration Synthesis and Hydrolysis by going over these notes.
Today in class we reviewed the material learned about Enzymes and went into more detail. We then discussed how enzymes are affected by temperature, pH and concentration by looking at graphs and interpreting the information they represented. Make sure you look through the notes on Canvas that cover Enzymes.
Today in class we reviewed Macromolecules and CHNOPS. Students were assigned a CHNOPS superhero or villain last time and these were presented today. Once that was complete we moved onto learning about enzymes. Please go through the enzyme notes in Canvas.
8/28-29 Today in class we are learning about the four major macromolecules. They are proteins, carbohydrates, lipids and nucleic acids. We will then discuss the 6 elements that make up all living things. These are carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorous and sulfur. We then used the information to create a CHNOPS superhero/villain. Please go through the Canvas Modules from Macromolecules until you reach the CHNOPS superhero. Make sure that you read through each page to complete the task and be ready for the next day.
8/26-27 Since school has begin we have been setting up notebooks, talking about procedures and reviewing the Scientific Method. You should understand how to create a graph, read a data table and create conclusions. Come to this page for updates about what we did in class and how you can succeed!
Make sure your notebooks are up to date and in line with the rubric so that you can use them to the best of your ability on the final test this week. You can include anything that you were given or studied in class in the notebook.
Dichotomous keys are due today. Please see link in previous post for assignment details. Today we will be going to the End of Unit review, making a digital copy and editing it to ensure students are ready for the Evolution Unit test which will be held in class next time. Afterwards, students will have the opportunity to ensure their notebooks are organized and ready to use for the final.
