__** THE CASE OF THE TIRED GRANDMA (postlab questions) **__ __** Items to Review for tomorrow's test: **__ ** (A) DNA Structure and Function: ** - DNA is an example of a nucleic acid, protein, carbohydrate, or lipid? - Discuss the structure of DNA (repeating subunits called, double helix, backbone, etc.) - Identify the following from a model of DNA: nucleotide, deoxyribose sugar, nitrogen bases, backbone, hydrogen bonds, covalent bonds) - Name the four nitrogen bases and pair their accordingly - The function of DNA is to hold information in the form of a code to make; - Discuss DNA's code - Each triplet code in DNA codes for a single; (HINT: building block of proteins) - The "middle man" in protein synthesis who transcribes and translates DNA prior to building the protein is called __.__ - Three differences between DNA and RNA - The number of amino acids and their sequence determines the type of protein (true or false) - How many amino acids exist? - Describe the role of each organelle in making a protein: nucleus, rough endoplasmic reticulum, ribosome, Golgi body **(B) Anatomy and Physiology** - Anatomy is synonymous with; - Physiology is synonymous with; - The organization within organisms: atom --> molecule --> macromolecule --> organelle --> cell --> tissue --> organ --> organ system --> organism - List and describe the primary function of the four main tissue types: - Give examples of the four main tissue types: - Briefly discuss the primary functions of each organ system: digestive, integumentary, circulatory, nervous, endocrine, respiratory, excretory, immune, muscular, skeletal, and reproductive - Be familiar with how the following systems work together: a. circulatory and respiratory, b. nervous and endocrine, c. digestive and excretory, d. muscular and nervous - Match the organ with its organ system: heart, lungs, blood, bone, kidneys, brain, spinal cord, nerves, - Define and give two examples of homeostasis - Contrast negative feedback with positive feedback and give an example of each **Monday, 10/20 - Lab Questions:** **(1) Identify variables:** What is the independent variable in this experiment? What is the control? List 3 things that should be kept constant. **(2) Organize Data:** Graph the relationship between the independent variable and the dependent variables. **(3) Summarize:** What are the effects of exercise over time on the circulatory and respiratory system and on the persipration level? Be sure to talk about homeostasis in your response. **(4) Infer:** How is perspiration related to body temperature. How is temperature related to homeostasis? **WEDNESDAY 10/15 -- Bozeman Podcast, Homeostasis and Feedback Loops** Mon: Textbook Notes Section 6.2  Tue: Section 6.2 (Water) Assessment Questions #1-3 (page 156)   Wed: Section 14.2 Textbook Notes   Thu: Section 6.3 (Macromolecules) Assessment Questions #1-6 (pg 163)   Fri: None Mon: No School  Tue: Finish Webquest (T.Rex)   Wed: Textbook Notes Biodigest (pages 543-546)   Thu: Work on Lab Writeup   Fri: None Mon: Textbook Notes (section 1.1)  Tue: Textbook Notes (section 1.2)   Wed: Finish Lab Write-up (parts I - III)   Thu: Textbook Notes (Biodigest pages 466-469)   Fri: None Mon: Bozeman Biology Notes (crosscutting concepts)  Tue: Research factors that affect radish seed growth   Wed: Finish Lab Procedures   Thu: None   Fri: None Wed: Syllabus Thur: Science Interview Fri: Required Materials Bozeman Science Watch your assigned video and take notes.
