Thurs-Day 1
Bio- HW due Monday: outline text Section 38.1
we continued describing and explaining the various structures of the male reproductive system, noting how each structure contributes to increasing the likelihood of internal fertilization of the egg/ovum. We noted that maturation and production of the parts of the male reproductive system is hormonally controlled by the testes and the pituitary gland.
We examined the parts of the female reproductive system: the ovaries, oviducts/Fallopian tubes, uterus, cervix, and vagina/birth canal. We will discuss the hormone-controlled feedback loop that determines when an egg can develop and be fertilized and what happens when an egg is not fertilized.
We then worked on a handout that compared and contrasted the male and female reproductive systems.
Chem 7- we got through just two chemical reaction types: single replacement and double replacement; we named the compounds or elements, converted the names to chemical symbols, wrote the chemical equations, balanced the equations/recipes, and then used the mole ratios from the balanced equation to determine how many grams or liters (of gas at STP) of reactants were used up/reacted and how many grams or liters (of gas at STP) of products were formed.
Now that our Tablet PC is back and in good health, notes will be posted forthwith.
Chem 8/9- we did cationic and anionic single replacement reactions as well as double replacement; we named the compounds or elements, converted the names to chemical symbols, wrote the chemical equations, balanced the equations/recipes, and then used the mole ratios from the balanced equation to determine how many grams or liters (of gas at STP) of reactants were used up/reacted and how many grams or liters (of gas at STP) of products were formed.
We then did a single replacement lab in which we reacted magnesium with an aqueous solution of copper II chloride.
Now that our Tablet PC is back and in good health, notes will be posted forthwith.
