Moving on folks

So we have covered Cell structure and cell membrane movement. We have a lot of ground to cover. We're on Cell Cycle, and will follow soon with Cellular communication. I'm not gonna waste much time on Mitosis and Meiosis. You have had that in the past. We need to see how cells can communicate and make magical things happen. Please Please Please review your notes on a regular basis.You can look over the PowerPoint for Cellular Communication in advance and go ahead and read through some of the text parts to try to develop some early understanding. Focus on the three most important stages: Reception, Transduction and Response.


We'll be working on the microscopic level, down with the macromolecules now. It's important you review your notes on Macromolecules and make sure you understand the structure and function of those molecules. Pay particularly close attention to the proteins and enzymes as these are significant in much of cellular communication. If you need to look back for some review, head HERE. Be prepared to write and keep up. Additionally, you will need to begin using the iPads for research on your organ system project. The printer in the room has been air-linked and is available for use in printing images for your project. Please make sure you have isolated images before printing so we don't end up with hundreds of pages of Google files. To print files, select the up arrow in the upper left hand corner, and then select Print, and choose the HP 8600. If printing multiple images, be sure you don't have double-sided checked.

Additionally, you should continue to use the Quest program to review all of the previous question sets you have completed. These are excellent review for the final exam. All question sets will be opened before the final exam so you may review them. When you come in the room each day, the iPad cart will be unlocked. If you finish assignment or class work early, you may take your iPad and review. Of course you may also access the Quest questions from home and review them at your convenience.
