Agenda Monday February 5-Friday February 9, 2018


NGSS Standards:


MS-LS1-5.Construct a scientific explanation based on evidence for how environmental and genetic factors influence the growth of organisms. 
MS-LS3-1.Develop and use a model to describe why structural changes to genes (mutations) located on chromosomes may affect proteins and may result in harmful, beneficial, or neutral effects to the structure and function of the organism.
MS-LS3-2.Develop and use a model to describe why asexual reproduction results in offspring with identical genetic information and sexual reproduction results in offspring with genetic variation.

Ernest Everett Just 1883-1941
Dr. Ernest E. Just was one of the first African Americans to receive worldwide recognition as a scientist.  He published at least seventy papers in the areas of cytology (structure and function of plant and animal cells), fertilization and early embryonic development (mainly in marine invertebrates).  His investigation of the movement of water into and out of living egg cells (all the while maintaining their full developmental potential) gave insights into internal cellular structure (DIFFUSION AND OSMOSIS!!!!!).

Friday February 9, 2018
Due today: 
Objective-Why and how an organism gets its traits.
Agenda:
QW: The kitties reproduced because the parents fooled around.  That is sexual reproduction.  How do plants grow from cuttings or how do lizards regenerate  their tails?  That is called asexual reproduction.  Make some guesses how it works.

Plant cloning/observations on cuttings.
How proteins get made
notes, video clip

Homework:
