Genetic technology box for biology white sheet homework

Honors Biology Class-copy this 4 times for WEDNESDAY'S CLASS

REMEMBER YOUR 8 BOX INDIVIDUAL WHITE SHEET TEST IS ON TUESDAY!

Video of white sheet boxes with explanations. The last few seconds got cut off- "if you have 7 different genes then that means you have 14 possible alleles (choices) for the trait!"
Also in blood typing, you are just getting one letter from mom and one from dad but there are 3 different possible alleles (A,B or O). Enjoy!

APES Review material- review session is a no-go :(

Hey, I've only had a handful of people interested in meeting this afternoon and most of them are students from this semester so I'm not going to hold a review session.

Here is a link to review material with some white sheet boxes:

Also if you haven't looked at this stuff in a while  I would binge watch APES in a box to get ready for the exam.

If you are kind of prepared (Ryan and Hunter for example) and most of the white sheet stuff is still fresh in your head,  I would look at the math review stuff!

Good luck to everyone! Remember to show units when you do math and if a question is taking you too long to figure out- skip it and come back if you have time- there are probably a few easy ones you can know out instead!!   

AP Environmental Science EXAM is ON MONDAY! Possible Sunday review session

Hey, I thought some of you from last semester might enjoy a little review session before the big day.

IF the weather is nice I'm going to drive up to Lineberger Park  (near downtown Gastonia)
to do another review session!

I'll re-post Sunday by noon to let you know if it's a go. It will depend on the weather and the interest level. IF we meet it will be between 4 and 5 -check the blog before you go :)

Biology make- up clip for "Tapped" assignment

Ok this is 25 minutes (about). It looks like it's wrapping up before the 25 minutes- BUT it's not- continue to watch the entire time.

Watch and take notes! It's an old favorite! Bill Nye!
