Tues-Day 1
Bio- we took our test on the immune system and then we continued to collect data on our spread of disease lab. We will tally the data and discuss that lab on Thursday.
Our next unit is the Nervous System, which consists of the brain, the spinal cord, and the various neurons (nerve cells) throughout your body. The nervous system rapidly senses internal and external stimuli so that it can perform the life function of REGULATION via chemical messengers called neurotransmitters.
Chem 7- we took our Organic Chem exam; tomorrow we begin our new unit on the Math of Chemistry; the math used in the unit is limited to ratios/proportions and two step algebra problems that have ONE variable (x).
Chem 8/9: we took our Organic Chem exam.
Then we discussed our ester synthesis lab, reviewing the esterification process and naming the two esters that we synthesized.
