1/9 Biology update and homework due 1/16

Hi folks,

Today we took the time to really try to understand what is going on with those punnett squares.  What are they representing and what are we really trying to see with them.  To do that we did an activity called Dragon Genetics which simulated the process of independent assortment in meiosis to create gametes.  

Since we did this in groups in class, I want you to take a bit more individual time with the activity.  I'm including the write-up for you to refer to and I'm also including a worksheet.  Please do all the questions on the worksheet.  When you are done, take a look at the answer sheet to check your answers.

5/1 Biology class and homework due 5/8

  Hi folks, We got into the plant kingdom today and got into some of the basic classifications and into the purposes of some plant parts.  We will get into this a bit deeper next week if we have time. I've include the pictures from this week's lecture as well.  You'll notice that I put the monocot vs dicot table on  there for you as well. There will be a quiz on archaea, bacteria and what we've covered so far in plants so be sure to spend some time with that.  Be sure to focus some time on the differences between monocot and dicot plants. For homework next week read pages 583-602. Do questions 1 - 18 on page 604.
