FIRST QUARTER - THE CELL.


ORGANIC CHEMISTRY

During our investigaion of organic chemistry, we will study the four main types of organic chemicals. Lipids, Proteins, Carbohydrates, and Nucleic Acids will all be broken down into their component parts. Our goal here is to use this information to better understand how cells work on a chemical level.




MICROSCOPES

The ordinary becomes the extrordinary under the microscope! As cells are microscopic, we must become functional using the microscope. Basic exercises are done by looking at human hair and letters printed on paper. Our school is equiped with a microscope camera and a digital microscope.




CELL STRUCTURE

The internal make up of a living cell is investigated. Distinctions between animal and plant cells will be made. This includes our first big project of the year! Check out the cell project link for more information about the The Cell Project.




CELL ENERGY

How do cells get the energy they need to live? Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration are both critical to cells getting their life energy. These processes within a cell are both introduced. Experiments that investigate the relationship between the two are performed.




CELL DIVISION

Two types of cell division are explored. Microscope skills will become imperative for obtaining a full understanding of the topic. Much microscope work and some graphmaking are included in our activities.
