AP Bio Review, 12/5, Endocrine System RG

Hello All,

What did we learn this week:

The bowels move, but we don't want them to be our action. Hitler was fast, but sha la la is slow. Team work makes the dream work, and because you're making it happen you're all as cool as the other side of the pillow. 

Endocrine System RG (#s 1, 2, & 7)

And, you have work to do...

Cell Respiration Lab Data

Hello All,

Use the data below to construct a graph that should look like the one below the data. Answer the questions using the data, the graph, and your knowledge of the lab. (This will be on the blog as well).

AP Bio Prezis for Cornell Notes

Hello All,

In lieu of a Reading Guide this week, to practice Cornell note taking, I would like you to go through each of the Prezis below and take notes. This will be graded as a Reading Guide (30 points), each presentation counting for 10 points. Here are some pointers on Cornell Notes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WtW9IyE04OQ and http://lsc.cornell.edu/LSC_Resources/cornellsystem.pdf 

Free Energy

Cellularity

If you take Cornell notes you can put that on your college essay along with your application to Cornell. Just kidding. But you will be a doper student.

If your grade is low...

You may need to develop better weekly habits. Cramming work will be stressful for you, and for me. We must start developing good work habits now if we hope to have them in college and going forward. 

Water Essay...

Hello AP Bio. Most of you have not turned in the Water Essay that you graded with the rubric. Make sure to turn that in or it will be entered as a zero.
