Thurs-Day 2
Bio - check out Blackboard for the phylogenetic tree handout based on biochemical/amino acid sequence comparisons among species.
Also, DO the practice quizzes, tests, and worksheets! This practice will GREATLY help you on the exams.
Also, use your REVIEW BOOK- go through the evolution unit and check answers on Blackboard!
Today, we covered phylogenetic trees, which show evolutionary relationships among species from common ancestors, to more recent descendent species, to extinct descendent species. We use all 5 lines of evolutionary evidence, MOST importantly the biochemical DNA, amino acid similarities and differences to establish which species to put on which branches.
AP Chem - did a part II exam, partially, and then started our next part I.
For those of you who continue to miss our practice exams, I am staying after school on Friday to proctor whichever exam you previously missed.
Super-SATURDAY is our final practice AP exam in the SAM SPRINGER GYM AT 8AM !
We will be done with scoring and review by about 12:30 PM.
Do not miss this last opportunity. Attendance and taking at least two of the three released exams will determine whether we have an ELECTROCHEM/NUCLEAR/ORGANIC UNIT EXAM!
