Homework for tonight is:
1. Finish the 'Living or Not' lab - make sure you fill both sides with good, clear, detailed observations. On the back page in the conclusion, you need to explain whether one or both of the substances was living - and then explain why, In order to explain why, you need to refer to the 6 criteria of life that we covered in class. Remember that in order to be considered living, the substance:
a. Needs energy
b, Gives off waste
c. Reproduces
d. Responds to the environment
e. Grows
f. Is made of 1 or more cells.
2. Next, you need to do the 1.2 notes sheet that I handed out at the end of class. I have uploaded the textbook pages needed for the assignment - make sure that you write good, clear notes that you can use for studying.
3. The 'Intro' unit test that I was going to give you on Wednesday is now rescheduled for next week Tuesday (due to the shortened day on Wednesday). It will cover the Scientific method, Experiment design (independent/dependent variables, control group, etc), and metric/scientific notation. I will remind you of this on Wednesday.
NOTE: YOU WILL NEED YOUR DEVICES/PHONES FOR WEDNESDAY - WE WILL BE DOING SOME INTERNET RESEARCH.
Word of the day for Wednesday is to tell me 3 cell organelles and what they do...
