Week of March 2

This week we will learn about the processes of transcription & translation (and its relevance to protein synthesis) - as well as mutations that can occur during the process, which will conclude our unit on DNA & Genetics.

The test is scheduled for Thursday. This test will cover Mendel, Punnett Squares (dominant, recessive, and sex linked traits), and DNA/RNA/protein synthesis.

Things to study:

  • Two PowerPoint lessons
  • Countless Punnett Square practice problems - from classwork & homework (Re-do problems for practice. The only given information should be parent genotype & phenotype. You should be able to do the rest. Then, check your work with what you copied/did in class.)
  • Outline - The genetic code (Lots of key words and definitions!)
  • Assorted bell work practice problems
  • Notes - Protein Synthesis (Lots of key words and application of terminology!)
Additional thing: (Added 3/3/15) A new quizlet has been created. See the right side bar.

Other dates to note:

  • 3/3 Optional bonus due - Scroll down. Directions posted on the blog.
  • 3/9 Project poster due - Directions on OneNote.
