Enzymes worksheet will be collected next class (start of class). Please begin reading section 7.1 – 7.4 in the textbook (ATP).

Watch Bozeman Science ATP video (9:46)

With the exception of the first 16 “review questions,” please complete the enzymes handout by next class.

There are several helpful animations and other resources at the MacGraw Hill Higher Education website.

 

Complete the lab (due 20 and 21 Nov, depending on the block). See previous post for full instructions, and ask if you need clarification.

Complete the enzymes practice problems, and the reading of chapter 6.

Begin reading chapter 6 and use this link for the chapter outline.

Attempt the enzymes problems (key has been provided).

Continue working on the diffusion/osmosis lab (information and guidelines are in previous blog post. Due 20 Nov.

Study for membranes test (chapter 4 and all relevant notes, case studies, handouts, etc). Practice tests will be on Tuesday and Wednesday, 7 and 8 Nov, depending on the block.

Study for the practice test on 8 Nov (membrane structure and function and transport). Study all notes, case studies, and other resources such as the text (chapter 4). Actual test will be on 16 Nov. No alternative dates given for practice test.

Lab report (see guidelines) will be due after the test, 20 November.

Prepare the lab as follows:

Title: Write an informative, relevant title.

Purpose (see guidelines; includes objective, introduction and hypothesis): To determine the effects of osmosis on two samples of salt solution (NaCl) ([low] and [high]) in tap water, and the movement of materials across a semi-permeable membrane.

Materials: List all used.

Procedure – List all steps, disposal, safety precautions, etc.

Observations/data table – Present data, measurement, diagrams, sample calculations, other observations, etc.

Discussion – explain what occurred, what the results show, any sources of error, anything unexpected, etc.

Conclusion – relate findings back to the purpose and to the processes being investigated.

 

Study for the practice test on 7 Nov (membrane structure and function and transport). Study all notes, case studies, and other resources such as the text (chapter 4).

Membranes practice test will be on 7 Nov and actual test will be on 15 Nov. No alternative date will be given if you miss the practice test. Please continue on your notes, reading, handouts on membranes and membrane transport. Read and answer the questions on the hyponatremia case study.

Happy Hallowe’en!

Membranes practice test will be on 8 Nov and actual test will be on 16 Nov. No alternative date will be given if you miss the practice test. Please continue on your notes, reading, handouts on membranes and membrane transport. Read and answer the questions on the hyponatremia case study.

Continue working on the membrane, diffusion, osmosis and transport sheets given in class. Be sure you have read chapter 4.

Finish diffusion/Osmosis lab. Due next class.
