Class Notes & Chapter Homework
Herbarium ProjectPlease download the form. Some examples are available in class.
Alternatively you can collect leaves, dried them, then bring them to school to be laminated. Be sure to identify dicot or monocot, plants common name and scientific name.
Online Work1. Photosynthesis Virtual Lab
- Measuring the rate of photosynthesis of Elodea. Instruction: count the bubbles per minute when the light is placed at 50cm, 100cm, and 150cm. Draw graphs to figure out the rate of photosynthesis then draw a conclusion. 2. Photosynthesis Virtual Lab - more
You need to explore two sites. Follow the direction for both site and complete the activity. - you will need to submit journal entry (done before lab) and Data table (done after the lab). Write the effect of color light on photosynthesis rate in your conclusion.
- you will choose one variable to test (light intensity, light color, temperature or CO2 level). On a paper record, your independent variable, hypothesis, data table, and conclusion. Or use the paper provided below.
3. Cellular Respiration Virtual Lab
- Carbon Transfer through Snails and Elodea Please go to the link then complete the worksheet below or fill out the lab notebook on the website then print.
4. Photosynthesis Interactive (optional)
Navigate your spaceship at BioMan interactive to learn more about photosynthesis process. Write summary of each section. 5. Nova "illuminating photosynthesis" interactive (optional) Please click on the interactive button and play. Write down the questions and answer from puzzler section and submit. 6. Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration Interactive
Follow the direction and complete the puzzle. When you are done, be sure to answer questions in journal and print. 7. Water Weed Simulator (optional)
You need to install Shockwave and Flash of this program to work. Please complete all data tables and draw conclusion - complete the worksheet. Extra CreditComplete the optional online interactive activities to earn extra credit points.

BioGeoChemical Cycle
In biology, we will discuss the following three biogeochemical cycle. Watch Mr. Andersen's Video Study (CHNOPS cycle); complete the worksheet; and copy the diagram in your notebook. Finally, read the following article to gain more insights. Think about this: What will happen if one of these cycles did not function properly?
