Egg lab conclusion :)

You should have the mass of the egg recorded on pg 72 (in a table) as well as observations of the egg before and after it is placed into the vinegar, and observations (including mass and volume) of egg after vinegar and before & after for the syrup (mass and volume) and before of water

Day 8 of egg lab –

1. Observe the egg. Record your observations.

2. Carefully remove the egg from the beaker. Be EXTREMELY careful. The egg is very, very fragile now.

3. GENTLY rinse the egg and find its mass. Record.

4. Using a beaker, calculate the mass of the water left in the cup.  Record.  Also, record what they water looks and smells like.

5. throw away the cup

6. pour the water down the drain and clean the beaker

7. place the egg into a ziploc baggie.  You may carefully pop the egg, record any observations you make after it has popped and throw the egg in the garbage.

8. Clean entire lab area

Egg lab again (pgs 72-74) & argumentation session

Summaries for this week go on pg 75

Day 6 of egg lab –

1. Observe the egg. Record your observations.

2. Carefully remove the egg from the beaker. Be EXTREMELY careful. The egg is very, very fragile now.

3. GENTLY rinse the egg and find its mass. Record.

4. Using a beaker, calculate the mass of the syrup left in the cup.  Record.  Also, record what they syrup looks and smells like.

5. Rinse the cup

6. Pour water into the cup up to the 90mL mark (the one from the vinegar)

7. GENTLY place the egg into the water

8. leave the beaker until Wednesday

ARGUMENTATION SESSION

Egg lab (pgs 72-74) & possibly argumentation session

You should have the mass of the egg recorded on pg 72 (in a table) as well as observations of the egg before and after it is placed into the vinegar

Day 3 of egg lab –

1. Observe the egg. Record your observations.

2. Carefully remove the egg from the beaker. Be EXTREMELY careful. The egg is very, very fragile now.

3. GENTLY rinse the egg and find its mass. Record.

4. Using a graduated cylinder, measure the amount of vinegar left in the beaker. Record.

5. Rinse the cup

6. Pour syrup into the cup up to the 90mL mark (the one from the vinegar)

7. GENTLY place the egg into the syrup,

8. leave the beaker until Monday

Argumentation Board

Filling out the whiteboard today :)

Remember the Guiding Question is: 
How should the unknown microscopic organism be classified?

Cell Structure: How should microorganisms be classified? (pgs 68-71)

Summaries for the week go on pg 68

Today we are going to work on a lab to identify the type of cell seen on an unknown slide.

Click here for a template to use for your investigation proposal

Work Day!

After you have read and completed the summary on pg 65, please work on at least one of the following

• Population Biology Virtual Lab
• Ecology Flashcards
• Ecology Quiz

Microscope Lab continued . . .

Summaries still go on pg 65
Continue work on the Microscope lab (pgs 66 & 67)

Intro to Microscope Lab (pgs 65-67)

Summaries go on pg 65 
Here is the PowerPoint we went through before starting the microscope lab. Also, click here for lab, your answers need to go on pgs 66-67

Ebola: The Plague Fighters (pgs 63 & 64)

Today you will watch a Nova special from the Ebola outbreak in the mid 1990's
Please use the video sheet to answer the questions in your notebook on pgs 63 & 64

Continue with the cell

Brief review of the parts of the cell, using cells alive.  Take notes, draw pictures, on pgs 61 & 62

***These drawings should be labeled with the structure and the function of each organelle****

EX: the nucleus is the "brain" of the cell, where the DNA (genetic information) is stored.

Canvas groups and moving to the cell (pgs 60-62)

Summaries for the week on pg 60
Make sure you've signed up for the canvas group for your virtual flashcards for ecology

• log onto Canvas
• Select "people" on the left
• Once it opens, select "groups" on the top
• Join your group :)

Work on the virtual flashcards

Moving onto the cell.
