Scribe 9/28-9/30

Hello everyone! We had a very fun time in class theother day.

Our homework was to finish 8-14 lab in UP and the chart due monday with 7.2.

Here are some important things that we learned today:

• An important phrase is STRUCTURE DETERMINES FUNCTION: an example Mrs.Stein used was "Is an ice skater built like a football player?"
• We learned the levels of organisms is as followed:

Organism- Dog

Organ System- Respiratory System

Organ- Liver

Tissue- Cardiac Tissue

Cell- Brain Cell

Organelle- Mitochondria

Molecule- H20

Atom- H

Mrs.Stein also asked a very important question...

Why do we care about the Levels of Organisms?

Scientists love to classify, and it is very easy t

o get stuck on the details and miss the big ideas.

Next, we started the Cell Structure and Function Lab. We looked at 5 slides.

One was the elodea leaf,

The next was the human cheek cell:

Then the onion cell:

After that the onion cell with a drop of Iodine:

Next a slide of frog blood:

This lab was very interesting and I enjoyed it very much. Thank you all! Have a magical day!

The next scribe is ....... RACHEL!
