Today we are starting our unit on biochemistry. I will check to see that you have completed your vocabulary, standards on a separate sheet, and a visual representation of the 6 most common elements.
Then we will start a lab called % of water in living things. This will be an ongoing lab for the next week. We will collect data each day to be graphed.
The notes we are taking today are on the chemical basis of life. We will fill in the blanks through dehydration synthesis and hydrolysis.
Your assignment is to illustrate those two principles. You do not have to color them, but you may if you wish. I just want you to come up with a picture to help you remember each process.
Warm-Up:
What is the difference between an atom, an element and a compound?
P.S. The test scores yesterday were the highest they have ever been! Congratulations guys!!
First test re-take will be during summit on Monday (Sept 20th) Let me know by tomorrow if you are planning on taking it.
