classwork/Homework
Monday
IB Biology - The following topics are concepts that should be included in your genetic disorder project. These topics are coming from chapters 3.3, 10.1, 3.4, and 10.2. You should understand each of these and be able to describe how they relate to your disorder. Yes, this is like a report, but know that you will have to present these topics to the class in the context of your disorder. Meiosis Homologous Sister chromatids Chiasmata formation Crossover Independent assortment Problems with haploid diploid cells. Non-disjunction. Polyploidy cells Methods of karyotyping sampling and risks. Mendel Alleles Dominant Recessive Codominant Sex Linked/linked Polygenic traits Pedigrees Punnett squares Here's a great video to give you the basics of the material in 3.3 and 10.1. PLease watch this and then come prepared with questions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5hA0WCv1lg Honors Biology - https://ourworldindata.org/cancer 1) Look at the world wide data and look for trends that have happened in the world over time. Write these in your notebook on the right. 2) Now identify those diseases that are cancer related. How do those trends change over time? Write these down on the right side of your notebook. 3)Now go into your lab group and each of you should select a different country each from different continents (North America, South America, Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia). Pick a common cancer disease and see how the trends have varied in each of these regions. Write down your findings in your notebook on the right hand side. Tuesday IB Biology - Here's a good video on meiosis disorders, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXjCg_2vZQs Come prepared with any questions you might have. Please also complete the DBQ on page 167, ready to be turned in. Here's the presentation on 10.1 from today if you would like to review it. I only didn't get through Mendel and his idea of independent assortment: https://www.bioknowledgy.info/101-meiosis.html What you should have at his point is a genetic disorder which has been described completely and you are now trying to describe the specifics of how it functions and is created. You should be able to utilize all of the terms placed on Monday, and now be able to describe how meiosis plays a role (or not) in your chosen condition. Applications you should be familiar with: 3.1
10.1 NONE Honors Biology - Please look at the image we saw in class, click the link below. On the right side of a new entry titled, "Cancer Cell Invasion", please make a sketch of the image (including color), print up or write the explanation of what is happening, and be sure to define what a "leader cell" is, and what "metastasize" means. https://www.biointeractive.org/sites/default/files/CancerCellInvasion-StudentHO-PI.pdf This is all you must do in preparation for tomorrow. Wednesday IB Biology - Today we looked at this power point and using it I would like you to come prepared with some practice punnett squares. The Punnett squares that you should know are listed below. This could be as simple as just copying them down, but make sure you understand them. If you are struggling, remember, "Be Like Reece" and come talk to me. So, to sum it up, complete the 5 punnett squares listed below under 3.4 and please also complete DBQ 183 3.4 basic inheritance: https://www.bioknowledgy.info/34-inheritance.html 3.4
Honors Biology - Cell Cycle and Cancer Click and Learn Activity https://media.hhmi.org/biointeractive/click/cellcycle/ Use this student handout: do as partners but produce one paper (each partner must alternate writing) https://www.biointeractive.org/sites/default/files/Cellcycle-Worksheet.pdf The major portions of the work fall into the following groupings: 1-9 Background 10-12 Cycles 13-19 Diagram 20-30 Extra Credit: 31-34 This work is all due tomorrow for a grade. Work well! Thursday IB Biology - Today we started by reviewing what we know and then headed into the big ideas of chapter 10.2. Of course, we didn't get far so we will continue this tomorrow, but you should preview the powerpoint I was using so you can come in educated, but with questions. Here is the link to that presentation: 10.2 Inheritance: https://www.bioknowledgy.info/102-inheritance.html Before tomorrow, before we start back in on the material, I would like you to create a simple dihybrid cross punnett square for any 2 characteristics you like. MAKE YOUR OWN CRAZY IDEAS. Ex. 2 Giraffe have an offspring with spiral horns vs no horns. Spiral horns is dominant. And stripes vs spots with spots being dominant. If they had 79 babies, how many of each type would they produce. Lastly, you should complete DBQ186 - Chernobyl SO do any of you want to go on a hike (with potential extra credit)? I could keep it closer to home than last time. Let me know if you have any interest tomorrow as I will be hiking again on Sunday. Honors Biology - So after talking about our unit exams from our last unit, we then turned in our work on cancerous cell cycles. After discussing those responses we watched the following video to get the big picture about what this looks like. https://www.biointeractive.org/classroom-resources/how-tumors-grow Next, I had you discuss with your shoulder partner what the five big ideas we should pull away from the activity and you write these down on the left side of the entry. Tonight I want you to write a cohesive paragraph using those ideas that EXPLAINS what the cell cycle has to do with cancerous tumors. I found this interesting article you might want to read (not required) : medicalxpress.com/news/2019-12-protein-cancer-suppresses-anti-tumor-immunity.html If you have any interest in going on a hike on Sunday with me and some seniors, please see the notice I placed under Thursday for my IB Course. Friday IB Biology - SO today we used your homework from last night to work out a sample of the Chi-Squared test. This will be a good example to work from as we prepare for your presentations next week. The following list are all of the topics that you should be able to present about in context to your genetic disorder. Remember, that you will have Monday and Tuesday to prepare and ask questions. Crossover Independent assortment Sex linkage (or any) Morgan’s fruit flies Non-disjunction Dominant, recessive, and codominant Dihybrid punnett squares Discrete vs continuous variation Polygenic traits Chi-Square Test Honors Biology - Today we had a great Karaoke Friday, but then discussed what we understand about the cell cycle disruptions involved in cancers. P53 seems to be a very important regulatory protein and that's why we then went and attacked the following work with a new partner. You and your partner should be able to turn in your responses on Monday. Not many scores left before final grades.
