Thurs-Day 2
Bio - we reviewed the four stages of the menstrual cycle noting the significant structural changes in the uterus and ovaries as well as the significant hormonal changes that regulate the cycle. We particularly noted the negative hormonal feedback of the follicle-produced estrogen on the pituitary's production of FSH as well as the negative hormonal feedback of the corpus luteum-produced progesterone on the pituitary's production of LH.
We finished/almost finished the menstrual cycle calendar activity; I'll post a copy of the lab on Blackboard, in case you need more cut-outs or calendars. Answer the question for HW; the lab is due by next Friday.
I'll also post the answer to the review worksheet on the menstrual cycle.
AP Chem- took our unit exam on acid-base simple equilibrium (complex is coming up next).
