Please fill out the survey at the bottom of the page to evaluate me as an SI leader and to evaluate our program. If you enter your netID you'll still remain annonymous, but you'll be entered into a drawing for a bookstore giftcard.
Look at the agenda for the rest of the semester! We don't have that many sessions left. If you need help in studying for Exam 4 and the Final come to our last sessions!
Make sure that you study over Thanksgiving break!
Here's what I recommend studying to get you started:
Exam 4:
Circulation and Respiration
Excretory System (make sure to look at the figures in your book for this)
Immune System
Final Exam:
Biomolecules: Carbohydrates, Proteins, Nucleic Acids, Lipids
hydrophobic/hydrophilic
exergonic/endergonic
catabolic/anabolic
cellular transport: diffusion, facilitated diffusion, active transport, endocytosis/exocytosis
Cellular Respiration: 3 parts
Proton Pumps COUPLED with ATP Synthase
Photosynthesis: Light rxns and Calvin Cycle+ alternative Calvin Cycles
DNA Replication: enzymes
Transcription and Translation: where and how
Plant transport: Xylem and Phloem models of transport plus cell types and plant anatomy
Animal Nutrition: enzymes, hormones, compounds involved; regional specialization
Water Potential: what happens to a cell in hypotonic and hypertonic solutions
Reminder: Your research seminar assignment is due Dec 2! (Remember that there won't be seminars all the way up until the deadline.--Plan ahead.) Get it done soon if you haven't already!
Don't know when you'll find time to study? Use this grid to help plan out your days.
