Continue working on the Cell Regulation handout, DNA/Protein Synthesis review sheet, and workbook/textbook reading and questions practice.
Quiz next class on DNA as well as biological molecules and the case study on water (and all related questions).

Work on the DNA handout and continue reading the DNA sections in workbook and textbook and workbook.
Practice the questions in the workbook.

Finish the evolution terms and continue reading ch. 13/14 and workbook Unit C.
