Last lessons Objective

 

 

Comparing slides of Spyrogra, Moss and Fers

Evaluation
Today’s Objectives  

1.   The topic of tissues in plants

2.   Slides of Stems, Roots and leaves

3.   Example of photosynthesis

 

 
Topic

Number One

From our class mind map we have highlighted that the role of water is linked to photosynthesis.

We have defined key structures and chemical pathways for all plants.

Today, we introduce the idea of “tissues”

c)    Leaf

http://www.mhhe.com/biosci/pae/botany/stern8e/student/olc/chap07goals.html

 

We will look for phloem and xylem and how they change their arrangement from root to leaf.

Looking at text material and videos, lets start to build a vocabulary list.

Biology 12 ( Blood Review Sheet)

Blo 12 Blood Review Sheet:

 

Part One: “The Bits” or vocab (take the time to fill in)

 

Vocab Definition

Tissue fluid  
White blood cells  
  Hormone that increases blood glucose level
  Hormone that lowers blood calcium level
  Hormone that decreases blood glucose
  Hormone that increases metabolic rate
  Hormone that helps in repair of damaged tissues

 

 

Part Two: How things interact

 

  1. Inflammation
  • What are the four cardinal signs of inflammation?
  • What are the cellular products in inflammation?
  • What are the plasma components of inflammation?
  • What are the five stages or events of inflammation?

 

  1. Blood Clotting
  • What are the cellular components of a clotting response?
  • What are the biochemical components of a clotting response?
  • What element helps with blood clotting?
  • What are the specific steps of blood clotting?

 

  1. Blood Type
  • How many blood types are there and how are they identified?
  • What is a universal donor?
  • What is a universal receiver?
  • What is a rhesus factor and how does it occur?
  • How is agglutination related to rh factor and how would you notice under a microscope?
  • What is “erythroblastosis fetalis” and how does it occur?

 

  1. Cell types
  • What is the role of specific white blood cells?
  • Over population of white blood cells is due to?
  • What occurs if there is a shortage of red blood cells?
  • What is missing in red blood cells?
  • How often do red blood cells get replaced and where do replacement cells come from?

 

 

  1. Gas Exchange
  • Most of the carbon dioxide produced by cells is carried in the blood plasma as?
  • Slow uptake of carbon dioxide occurs in the plasma to create?
  • What is the role of carbonic anhydrase and where does it occur?
  • What is the role of chlorine and blood plasma carbon dioxide?
  • Carbon dioxide and water in the blood changes to?
  • How does the blood regulate ph?
  • What is the role of carbaminohemoglobin in red blood cells?

 

 

And then..things that go whoops!

 

  1. Abnormal blood tests

What would cause the following and what could be possible symptoms

  1. decrease in leukocytes
  2. low level of fibrinogen
  3. Elevated levels of plasma proteins
  4. To little iron in the blood
  5. Low ph in blood
  6. Low level of calcium in blood
  7. Low level of carbonic anhydrase in rbc
  8. Low levels of red blood cells
  9. High levels of glucose in the blood
  10. Low levels of glucose in the blood

 

Some things to consider

 

  • What is an autoimmune response?
  • How is cancer linked to blood types?
  • What are two reasons why oxygen, water and nutrients move freely from the arteriole end of the capillary into the tissue fluid?
  • How can a hematocrit give a quick description of what is occurring within your body?
  • How is stem cell research linked to blood cellular components?
  • Which two ions could affect how blood absorbs carbon dioxide and how blood clots?

Defining the mission.

The objective is to prepare a study guide with the following criteria.

Side One: From the photosynthesis workbooklet, find facts about photosynthesis to answer any level of questions you may find on line. You can cut and paste diagrams and highlight key fact.

Side two: create a comparative table to list how all plants have adapted to acquire both sunlight and water.

 

The following sites may offer both facts and phylum information.
