AP Biology
What did we do in class today?
Warm-up: Complete number 1 on the handout on your desk. 1. Standard deviation discussion 2. Nervous system notes 3. Endocrine notes UNIT EXAM 6 WEDNESDAY
0 Comments
Warm-up: Explain the process of signal transmission through an axon beginning with action potential.
REGISTER FOR THE AP EXAM 1. Immune recap 2. Standard deviation introduction 3. Standard deviation activity 4. Nervous system notes HW: Read chapter 45 if you haven't already. Stay caught up! 1. Web Quest Web Quest links Brain http://serendip.brynmawr.edu/bb/kinser/Structure1.html Synapse http://www.mind.ilstu.edu/flash/synapse_1.swf The Synapse and Learning (and exercises) http://outreach.mcb.harvard.edu/animations/synaptic.swf Immune system questions from activity handout:
1. Describe, in the detail, the three lines of defense- include the environmental conditions, the proteins, and the tissues and cells involved. 2. Differentiate between specific and non-specific immunity in mammals. 3. Explain the role of Helper T cells in the humoral response AND the cell mediated response. 4. Explain why the B cell response is called the humoral response. 5. Explain why the T cell response is called the cell mediated response. 6. Explain, in detail, the steps involved in T Cell and B Cell activation. Begin with pathogen recognition. Do not forget to include the role of macrophages, antigens, CD4s, helper T cells, cytokines, cytotoxic T cells, memory T cells, plasma cells, memory B cells, antibodies, antigen receptors. 7. Explain how the inflammatory response helps prevent infection- to which line of defense does the inflammatory response belong? Explain your choice. 8. Explain why the second exposure to a specific pathogen is less severe and ends more rapidly than the first exposure. 9. Draw a graph that illustrates the difference between the first and second exposure to a specific antigen. Title and label it appropriately. 1. Reading quiz- take out notes 2. When you finish your reading quiz answer the following questions: a. How do immune cells distinguish self from non-self? b. Describe, in detail, the steps in inflammation c. Explain the difference between antibodies and antigen receptors d. Explain the difference between plasma cells and memory cells. 3. Complete immune notes 4. Complete immune diagrams HW: Remember you should be reading and taking notes over every chapter regardless of whether there is a reading quiz or not. Warm-up: Explain how the immune system is like a castle.
Reading quiz moved to tomorrow 1. Immune system notes. 2. Immune system diagrams. HW: Reading quiz Ch. 48 tomorrow. Warm-up: Describe the difference between regulators and conformers. Provide examples of each.
1. 3 presentations 2. Immune system notes 3. Immune system diagrams Warm-up: Explain why blood is considered a connective tissue.
1. Complete animal form and function notes 2. Immune system introduction diagram Warm-up: Both the nervous system and the endocrine system have functions related to communication and control. Explain how they are different.
1. Ch. 43 Reading quiz 2. Animal structure and function notes Hand in lab notebooks in yellow basket.
Warm-up: List all the ways you can think of in which organisms maintain homeostasis. This should be an exhaustive list! 1. Homeostasis discussion 2. Labeling the human body "map" 3. Animal responses to the environment HW: Reading quiz over Ch. 43 (immune system) tomorrow. |
