Thurs-Day 1
AP Chem- took the Gas Unit exam today. Tomorrow, we will dedicate most of the period to discussing the lab and writeup of our solution stoichiometry titration of bleach/hypochlorite ion and possibly the Boyle lab. Our next unit is on Thermochemistry, which focuses on energy absorbed or released by a given physical or chemical process or processes. The rest of Thermodynamics, entropy and Gibbs Free Energy, are covered in April at the very end of our course .
Part I is graded...almost all got one or two multiple choice questions wrong...ONLY ONE of you got them all right (the one who knows Avogadro's Law...the most frequently tested law on the AP exam and on SAT II Chem...check that out). Starting to look at Part II's now...I hope that they are as good as my cursory impression of them!
Bio 6/7- the objectives HW is due Friday; you can skip objective # 9 or just copy this answer that you already know from our biochemistry unit: Five protein types that are possible to form via translation are (1.) enzymes, (2.) transport proteins, (3.) antibodies, (4.) receptor proteins, (5.) certain hormones (e.g. insulin) ( you can also put "recognition proteins", light-absorbing proteins such as chlorophyll, oxygen-transporting proteins such as hemoglobin).
We didn't finish our Protein Synthesis lab discussion but we will do so tomorrow.
We discussed substitution point mutations as well as "frameshift" addition/insertion and deletion mutations. We then looked at gross/large chromosomal mutations i.e. chromosomal deletions, chromosomal insertions, chromosomal inversions, and chromosomal translocations.
We will wrap up the unit tomorrow and complete our test review on Monday; we have more time to review so this test should be our best yet!
Bio 8- the objectives HW is due Friday; you can skip objective # 9 or just copy this answer that you already know from our biochemistry unit: Five protein types that are possible to form via translation are (1.) enzymes, (2.) transport proteins, (3.) antibodies, (4.) receptor proteins, (5.) certain hormones (e.g. insulin) ( you can also put "recognition proteins", light-absorbing proteins such as chlorophyll, oxygen-transporting proteins such as hemoglobin).
