Past Assignments
Due:
You will be reading this article and creating a sketchnote on page 8-9 in your notebook
These are the questions that need to be answered in the sketchnote:
1. What is chlorophyll?
2. What is its role with photosynthesis?
3. Identify the reactants, products, and basic functions of photosynthesis.
4. NADP is an example of an electron carrier. Describe its function in photosynthesis.
5. Draw a model to show how the process of photosynthesis impacts both the flow of energy and the cycling of carbon through the atoms and biosphere.
6. Use figure 9-6 as a model to describe how the light- dependent and the light-independent reactions transform light energy into stored chemical energy.
7. What roles do ADP and ATP play in the light-dependent and the light independent reactions?

Due:
On page 10 in your notebook please write the question and the answer for the interactive activity.
Due:
After reading the articles and watching the videos. What do you think farming on Mars will look like? You the attached sheet for articles, videos and a podcast.
Due:
Please watch the recording and complete notes on page 7 in your notebook
Due:
Recall that photosynthesis requires certain raw materials, such as sunlight and carbon dioxide. Using the chloroplasts, plants are able to produce carbohydrates and release oxygen.
Bromothymol blue is a biological indicator of pH that remains blue when in a neutral environment, however, when in an acidic environment, bromothymol blue becomes yellow. The more acidic the environment, the more yellow it becomes. When carbon dioxide is dissolved in water, it forms a weak acid known as carbonic acid.
I will be demonstrating the lab that is attached. Please complete the while we wait section along with the analysis questions that are at the bottom of the lab sheet on page 4-5 in youor notebook.

Due:
Define Matter and Energy. Then using the attachment you will draw on page 6 in your notebook the pictures under the correct title. Please see attached for template and drawings.
Due:
Have you ever used a solar-powered calculator? No matter where you go, as long as you have a light source, the calculator works. You never have to put batteries in it. A solar-powered calculator uses solar cells that are found in rows along the top of the calculator. Into what kind of energy is the light energy converted so that the calculator works? How does this relate to what you read about the hornets?
Due:
Hope you guys have a great break! Here is an extra credit opportunity for you! Please let me know if you have any questions! I can set up a meet and I can help!
Due:
Please read the attached article. Once you have read the article please add three questions and three things you notice to the Jamboard that is linked below. You will need to include your name to your sticky note for credit.
Due:
You will be able to choose who your partner is going to be for this test. You will complete the document attached.
Due:
You will be completing a story board about the biomolecule sandwich on page 14 in your notebook. While watching the video please include information about William Prout and the Biomolecule sandwich. This need to include color and pictures
Due:
This will be completed on page 8-10 in your notebook with the templates given in class.
Due:
Please watch the linked video and then as a group you will answer the following questions on a Jamboard.

2. What is an example of a starch molecule?
3. Humans cant use large molecules in proteins but can use....?
4. Atoms are the....
5. Explain- How everything is made out of the same stuff.
6. Why do you think its important to understand that everything is made out of the same stuff?
