Fri-Day 1
AP Chem - thank you class for your great generosity and fidelity in putting the "drive" into this food drive.
It was so nice of you to haul in the goods to benefit those in need, whether or not we got a shout out (though that was pretty fun too). I will spend this weekend buying out another aisle in Waldbaum's. :)
Today, we navigated through AX3, AX2E (with delocalized pi bonding shown, though not completely explained, yet), AX4, AX3E, AX2E2, AX5, and AX4E molecule types, along with their requisite orbital hybridizations, electronic and molecular polarities, and finally intermolecular attraction types.
We'll finish up on Monday but I will post the remaining notes on Edline (for AX3E2, AX2E3, AX6, etc)
so that, for these remaining types, you can go through what we did today.
Bio - we discussed the 6 purposes/functions of endoskeletons (functions related to locomotion as well as to other functions i.e. forming blood cells).
We learned the major commonly cited bones of the human body.
We discussed and gave examples of various types of joints, and saw their respective motion ranges.
We defined and discussed tendons and ligaments, and came up with foolproof mnemonics for both.
We saw that muscles work in antagonistic pairs i.e. biceps are flexors and triceps are extensors.
