Tuesday 3/29

Journal:


  1. Watch the video about the frozen frogs and answer these questions:


  1. Why is it beneficial for the wood frog to become frozen during the winter?
  2. Why can the frog freeze and thaw but you cannot?
  3. What adaptations for protection from the cold do other animals in temperate regions have?

2. What is the difference between a chromosome, gene, and DNA?


Today I handed out new late/hall passes and then started an assignment on genetic mutations.

You will need this worksheet to record your answers and these handouts to help you fill them out (all the handouts are in one folder). We will finish tomorrow.

HW:  none
