AGENDA: Have you signed up for co-teaching?
Objectives: Demonstrate a basic understanding of photosynthesis by running a controlled scientific experiment to study the effects of varying CO2 concentration on rates of photosynthesis
Warm-up: What are the reactants for and products of the photosynthesis reactions in plant cells? What is the significance of these products for heterotrophs? [5]
Finish notes on photosynthesis, revisit tour of the chloroplast [20]
Finish Microscopic Observation of Plant Cells lab DUE 12/11 [20]
If you still need to finish Intro to cells unit exam, do it by Wed.!
OUTSIDE OF CLASS:
Finish Microscope Lab #2 (Observation of Plant Cells) questions
Work on ESLP project (BioSITE participants: SIGN UP FOR BioSITE blog and remember last meeting is tomorrow!)
