  1. AP So Far… A Review over chapters 1  21*

  2. Objective • To Catch up on main ideas • Address any hindrances • Prepare for the AP exam and Final

  3. AP’s Ideas.. • Big Idea 1  The process of evolution drives the diversity and unity of life • Big Idea 2  Biological systems utilize free energy an molecular building blocks to grow, to reproduce, and to maintain dynamic homeostasis. • Big Idea 3  Living systems store, retrieve, transmit and respond to information essential to life processes. • Big Idea 4  Biological systems interact, and these systems and their interactions posses complex properties.

  4. Units Covered So far… • The Chemistry of Life: • Chapters 1  5 • The Cell: • Chapters 6  12 • Genetics: • Chapters 13  15 • Gene Activity & Biotechnology: • Chapters 16  21*

  5. The Chemistry of Life: What you need to Know… • Three subatomic particles • The types of chemical bonds • Hydrogen bonding • Interpreting the pH scale • Buffers in biological systems • Properties of Carbon • The difference and importance of dehydration and hydrolysis rxns. • Recognize the structure of the four groups of organic compounds.

  6. The Cell: What you need to Know… • About the Cell • Difference btwn. Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic • Structure and Function of Organelles common to and solely for plant and animals • Components of cellular membranes • Movement of water and solutes in and out of the cell • Electrochemical gradients • Cellular Energy • ATP and energy coupling • Enzyme Activity • Cellular Respiration • Photosynthesis • Cell Communication • Three stages: reception, transduction, and response • G – coupled receptors • Phosphorylation • Apoptosis • Cell Cycle

  7. Genetics: What you need to Know… • Difference btwn. Sexual and Asexual reproduction • Meiosis and fertilization • Reducing the chromosome number • Importance of: • Crossing – Over • Independent Assortment • Random Fertilization • P1, F1; F2 generations • “Genetic terms”: • Dominant, recessive, homozygous etc. • Gene vs. Allele • Reading a Pedigree • Chromosomal Theory of Inheritance • Sex – linked genes • Alteration of Chromosome • Genomic Imprinting

  8. Gene Activity & Biotechnology • DNA Structure • Packaging DNA into a Chromosome • Major Steps of Replication • Central Dogma • DNA  RNA  Protein (processes involved) • Key terms: • Gene Expression, Transcription & Translation • Major Steps of Transcription • Major Steps of Translation • Mutations and Amino Acid Sequencing • Three Parts of the Operon • Repressor Genes • DNA Methylation and Histone Acetylation • Cancer: • Oncogenes, Proto – Oncogenes, & Tumor Suppressor genes • Embryonic Development • Components of Virus • Lytic & Lysogenic Cycles • Key Terms: • Genetic Engineering, Biotechnology & Recombinant DNA

  9. Gene Activity & Biotechnology • PCR & Gel Electrophoresis • Human Genome Project • Comparing Genomes • Evo – Devo • Homeotic Genes & Homeoboxes

  10. Finishing out the year… Group Assignment and Projects

  11. The Fourth Marking Period Project • Get into groups of three/four • Each group will be assigned a unit of exploration • For each group you need the following roles: • Leader • Is responsible for the overall group competency • Time keeping, workflow, overall • Designer • Is responsible for the project outline, and creating how the project is to be presented • Researcher* (can be more than one) • Uses outside sources to support unit objectives. • Gives information to the designer and help with the project outline and “look”

  12. The Task… • Your team is going to present on the assigned unit. • The group will be charged with creating a lesson that encompasses: • Introductory Lesson • 2 Activity/Explore Lessons • Assessment Lesson • The group will be given 60min. to present.

  13. TimeLine… • You will have two weeks to prepare, aka 5 class periods starting from today. • *Revised*: The due date is April 11th. • All groups must have work completed.

  14. What you will receive… • Rubric • Unit Goals • Suggested Activities • Chapters Covered • Chapter Study Packets

  15. Tying it all together… • My task is to take from each presentation and compile a final assessment.

  16. Remember… • Even though you have two weeks, be sure to get together after class. • Have fun with the Unit!!

  17. Ready… 1 2 3
