Slide 18, for those of you who’ve used Biology 12 on Moodle, the first powerpoint with slide 18 shows some pertinent information about Hemoglobin, namely, that Hemoglobin helps with buffering the blood (HHB, referred to as reduced Hemoglobin), maintaining a narrow range around 7.3; and fetal Hb which has a higher affinity for oxygen, for obvious reasons 😉

Pests are a real threat to food production and yield. Managing them becomes an important consideration around the world, not just for profit but for human health.

Use p 257 and the internet to construct a 250 word opinion paper on the following statement:

“Biological control of pests will never work because pesticides are cheaper and easier to apply.”

Please promote your opinion and present a counter to those in opposition.  Due next class.
