Cell Size Lab
1.Compare and contrast the three cubes after they were sliced in half.there all diffrenet sizes and they water only got half a centimeter in for each but the larger cube didn't get much. 2. Which "cell" seemed to be most and least efficient at getting outside substances into the cell? Explain.The small one seemed to be the most efficient while the big one was the least. 3. Which of your calculations seems to explain what you observed in your cell models? Why do you think so?surface area because it is about surface area. 4. Speculate on a relationship between cell size and efficiency. If the cells is bigger than it will take longer for substances to enter the cell.Your statement should resemble a hypothesis. (Remember: Use an If....., then..... statement.)


 * 1) Of the demoslide specimens available, each person in the group is responsible for taking a picture of one of the organisms.
 * 2) Take moticam pictures of what you find.
 * 3) Title the picture with the name of the organism.
 * 4) Caption each picture with 3 interesting facts you found about the organism.
 * 5) Cite the source(s) you used with each caption.

You are what you Eat
It basically means that what you eat matters. If you eat Stuff that will make you fat you will be fat. If you eat stuff that promotes muscles development you will have bigger muscles. If you eat lean you will be lean. Can you overdose on gummy vitamins? If you eat too much can you explode?

How much would you have to eat to explode?

biomolucles Food lab
Apple Simple sugar-positive starches-negative proteins-negative fats and oils-positive

There should be fats and oils and simple sugars but not proteins and starches. Because An apple is a fruit and fruits have a simple sugar called frutose that mostly comes from fruits. Also there is fats and proteins which are found in most things.

Liver-has simple sugar according to the test Goat meat-no simple sugar crab meat-no simple sugar Lamb- no simple sugar shark- no simple sugar hot dog-no simple sugar swordfish- no simple sugar stingray- no simple sugar chicken liver- no simple sugar

Meats of no simple sugars in them.

Enzyme lab

 * 1) Write the equation for the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide.2H2O2=H2O+O2
 * 2) How did the amount of reaction change between room temperature, warm, and cold hydrogen peroxide?
 * 3) What large group of biomolecules (carbohydrate, lipid, or protein) does catalase belong to?proteins What do members of this group have in common?they are part of structure
 * 4) Is it possible to reuse biomolecules like catalase? Explain. yes proteins the first are made in long chains and they coil which is second structure then folded third structure then turned into a blob fourth structure.
 * 5) What happens to an organism if biomolecules like catalase become useless? Explain it is destroyed. media type="file" key="DNA project.mov" width="300" height="300"

Protein synthesis questions What are the steps of transcription? RNA polymerase unwinds the DNA strand and then makes a mRNA strand. What are the steps of translation? The mRNA goes through the cytoplasm and attaches to a ribosome then tRNA comes carrying amino acids and makes protein List three differences between DNA and RNA RNA is smaller and has one strand. DNA has thymine but RNA has uracil List the three types of RNA. And state their function (what they do and where they do it) tRNA-carres the amino acids mRNA-goes out side the nucleolus to make proteins and rRNA-ribosomal RNA What enzyme is used to produce a new strand of RNA? RNA polymerase Which molecule contains the genetic code? DNA Be sure you can transcribe a gene and determine the complementary amino acids. Be sure you can identify all the parts (see flip book requirement list) of both transcription and translation.
