Thursday Nov. 29, 2012

Please note-any misbehavior today means no lab tomorrow.  Those who are off task will NOT get to do the lab tomorrow.  Another way, if you mess around, you will write all day tomorrow!


Tasks for today:

1) Correct/Take Test
 If you need to complete your test, you will do that first.  If you took your test yesterday, I have it graded and you will have a chance to correct your answers.

2)Once you have corrected your test, watch a video, answer questions, listen to a song
3) Use the virtual microscope
4) Read the Lab for tomorrow


Why Cells Matter?

True or False

1. Scientists can only make discoveries in a laboratory with white lab coats and science gizmos that go beep


2. There are three parts to the cell theory. Which is NOT one of those parts?




  • All cells come from pre-existing cells.
  • Cells spontaneously arise from carbon and nutrients carried in the bloodstream.
  • The cell is the basic unit of structure and organization in organisms.
  • All organisms are composed of one or more cells.

3. Why do you think there were so many heated debates around the development of the cell theory?

4. Can you describe a time when collaboration worked well for you? Where there ever any disagreements that led to a false assumption (like cells spontaneously crystalizing into existence)?

5.Who named the cell?
