Due Friday 9/11 |
Create a science-ography about your past experiences with science. Use color and labels as well as accurate descriptions. Also be sure to not only describe but tell me why you think this happened - what the science behind the expeiment was. |

Reflection - Asnwer the questions in complete sentences. |
|
|
|
| Using the following questions as a guideline, write a two paragraph conclusion to the experiment - trying to think about anythinge that comes to mind about the science of the carbonated beverage and the dancing raisens.
Paragraph 3
o Describe the limitations of your experiment.
o Small sample size?
o Too few Trials?
o Limited resources?
o Unable to generalize results?
o Mistakes?
o How well does your method of measurement represent your variable?
o What new questions does the experiment bring up?
|
Definitions for test on Tuesday:
- Control Group - the group recives nothing new - for instancethe control group will be given a placebo (sugar pill) instead of the medicine it thinks it is getting.
- Independent Variable - the part that you, the experimenter, changes
- Dependent Variable - is what changes when the Independent Variable changes - for instance the amount of movement of the raisens was the Dependent Variable.
- Data Table - be sure to note the amount of change - not just the size of the numbers.

- What are diffusion and osmosis?
- What is photosynthesis?
- What are cellular respiration and fermentation?).
|
|
|
10/30
|
Review diffusion and osmosis, act out diffusion, see videos about diffusion (video 1, video 2, video 3), active transport, passive transport, endocytosis and exocytosis, and cell division with mitosis (video 1, video 2, video 3, video 4). |
|
|

Using the attached Pedigree Symbols, create a pedigree for yourself using only one trait. If you found out the information from your family, add that. If not create the pedigree anyway and then interview the family to add the Rr (recessive and dominant alleles) to each of the family members. Based on this information, you could create entries for your grandparents also. Adopted students may create a chart identifying the family's traits and simply making sure that you show yourself as adopted in the correct manner. Use a white sheet of paper and turn it landscape with a title and your name at the top. |

Please complete the following in your notebook.
Claim: If one or both parents show the recessive phenotype for a specific trait, none of their offspring will be homozygous dominant for that trait.
Does your bug data support or not support this claim? Explain your answer using your bug data. Include a punnett square and correct genetic vocabulary (heterozygous, homozygous dominant/recessive, allele, trait, genotype and phenotype).
