Syllabus
This item, supplied by Mr. Jay, will be used for daily catalysts, notes, activities, and experiments, and is graded twice a semester.
What is the science notebook?
This type of microscope, common in student labs, uses visible light to pass through a specimen and bend through lenses to form an image.
What is a light microscope?
These cells, which include bacteria and archaea, lack a membrane-bound nucleus and are typically small.
What are prokaryotes?
Exams, quizzes, and projects make up this percentage of your overall grade.
What is 60%?
Because they use beams of electrons instead of light, these microscopes can achieve much higher magnification and resolution.
What are electron microscopes?
Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells have these four key features: a plasma membrane, cytosol, ribosomes, and this molecule.
What is DNA?
Mr. Jay’s office hours are held on these two mornings each week.
What are Wednesday and Thursday?
This type of electron microscopy involves cutting a sample into ultra-thin slices so the electron beam can pass through it, revealing internal cell structures.
What is transmission electron microscopy (TEM)?
These cells have a membrane-bound nucleus, linear chromosomes, and organelles such as mitochondria and the Golgi apparatus.
What are eukaryotes?
Late project and assignments lose this percentage of their grade for each day they are late.
What is 5%?
This type of electron microscopy scans a beam of electrons across the surface of a sample to create a detailed 3D surface image.
What is scanning electron microscopy (SEM)?
These cells use binary fission as a process to multiply quickly.
What are prokaryotes?
Name five essential materials students must bring to biology class.
What are #2 pencils, erasers, colored pencils, glue sticks, scissors, highlighters, black marker, science notebook and a Chromebook & charger?
In light microscopy, these substances can be applied to specimens to enhance contrast and make details easier to see.
What are chemical dyes?
In eukaryotic cells, DNA is organized into linear chromosomes and stored in this membrane-bound organelle.
What is the nucleus?
