STUDY HELP

This video will help you to study for the test on the digestive system.  For extra credit on this test see me for a list of questions relating to this video.  This worksheet will be handed in to me on the morning of the test. You can receive up to 8 extra points! Study hard and please see me!

TRUE OR FALSE?

Look at the following two websites.  Did you find anything odd about these websites?  What did you like about each one?  Do both websites give you true, accurate information?  What factors led you to this answer?  Name some ways you can tell if a website is accurate and up to date.  Learning to evaluate websites, and not just in biology, is a very important skill to have in all aspects of life.  Start here and you can become an expert!

IDENTIFY THESE CELLS

Identify each of these cells as either a nerve cell, a white blood cell, an erythrocyte, or a bone cell.  Look up some information about each of these cells and be able to participate in the class discussion.

WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?

Look at this picture very very carefully!  Note the two different types of cells.  What are some similarities and differences between these two cells?  Name the functions of the different organelles.  Be very familiar with this picture and functions of the organelles for the upcoming test!

DNA REPLICATION HELP!

This song helps explain DNA replication in very simple terms.  First, watch this video as many times as you would like (it is quite amusing) and write a short summary of the process.  The summary will be handed in to me.  Second, comment on this post writing any questions you have about DNA replication.  The video does leave out some small steps.  Finally, answer somebody else's question as best as you can.  For extra credit you can create your own video explaining any biological topic.  It does not have to be as involved as this one, it just has to demonstrate your knowledge.
