Friday

 Dear Science 10s 

I am unexpectedly away on friday. 

Please open windows for fresh air.

You may work on your term TEAMS assignments this class, including your DNA assignments from last week and also try to complete your acceleration worksheet. If you need help on it, I can help you Monday during flex B.  

Ms Ng

If you have finished assignments then start on the following assignment on DNA replication. It is part of next week's biology assignment

DNA REPLICATION

Watch all three videos on DNA replication. 




This DNA replication Song was made by my students in 2007.  They were grade 11 students taking my bio 12 course.  Their music teacher is the same as your band teacher now.

Assignment 5: Answer the following questions in a creative format

1. Why does DNA replication happen?  Give three reasons
2. a. Draw a nucleotide and identify the 5' end and the 3' end
    b. draw a DNA ladder structure and label the 5' and 3 ' end

3.  Compare and contrast DNA and RNA.
a.  What are they made of?
b. What are their nitrogen bases?
c.  What enzymes synthesize DNA and RNA?
d.  How does DNA polymerase join one nucleotide with another nucleotide?

4.  What are the main steps of DNA Replication.  Include details of what each enzyme does
a.  Helicase
b. Primase
c. DNA pol III
d.  exonuclease
e. DNA pol I
f. ligase

5.  In what direction does DNA polymerase synthesize the new DNA strand?
6.  How is the lead strand different from the lag strand?
7.  What is an okazaki fragment?


Creative Formats:  Choose one format

Acceleration

Displacement is a change of position.  Average velocity is a change in position over time.  Acceleration is a constant change in velocity over time.  Today you will do a lab in which you will observe a ping pong ball roll down two metre sticks.  Make a data table and graph position over time. Hand in your graph on teams. 

The Motion of a moving ball and calculating average velocity

In this lab, you will create a data table from moving a ball along a number line.  You will also calculate average velocity in your graph.  Furthermore, you will do the  MOTION worksheet and VELOCITY

 worksheet and  this is the answer key

The Language of Motion

 Today we learned about the definition of the following words.  There is also a worksheet for 

which this is the answer key

scalar

vector

motion

distance

displacement

We also took video of longboarding in the tennis court. 

Physics Assignment:  Longboarding data

Upload your data table and your position time graph of  two examples of longboarding in the tennis court.

5 points you uploaded the video

5 points you made a correct graph with the x axis labeled position and the y axis labeled time

5 points it includes your data table. 

discovery of DNA, assignments 3 and 4 for biology

 have a look at the notes on DNA, the slideshow on DNA as well as the video explanation of nucleotides and how they fit. Watch my video on DNA

Here is another video from youtube which explains these concepts in more detail.


Two assignments  in MS teams

Assignment 3 - 15 points

SUMMARIZE THE MAIN POINTS OF DNA NOTES 10 points

A. Summarize the main points of the DNA notes AND the DNA slide show in a Cartoon Format and make a clear photo of this cartoon.  upload your assignment in Microsoft Teams.   Include the details about Watson and Crick and Franklin.

EVALUATION rubric
10 points:  You included all the main points in a colourful, creative format which is written in ink and coloured.  You used humour and creativity and your assignment stands out for showing an understanding of the key points

8-9 :  you include all the main points and you show excellence and creativity. your assignment is in colour and inked

5-7 :  you include most of the main points and your assignment is handed in. It is a good start and  You needed more time to finish this.

2-4:  you handed something in that was not quite complete, although it is a pretty good start

You may do Assignment 3 Aas a poem that rhymes if you don't want to draw.

3B.  take a picture of  your drawing of this worksheet filled out: You may redraw it or edit it in Paint.
5 points

Assignment 4. MAKE A MODEL of DNA 10 points
Make a labeled model of DNA in your house. Write your name on a piece of paper and put it in the picture. This must be a pic of a physical model, not a digital model. Make sure that the model is a Right handed helix and not a Left handed one!

10 points:  you made a model and it includes a PAPER SHOWING YOUR FULL NAME in front of it. The model has all the parts and it is labeled. it is easy to see and clear. you made a model that stands out

8-9: you made an excellent model which includes everything asked for. you include a paper showing your full name

5-7 some parts of the model are not complete

2-4 you handed something in that was not complete.

NOTE: I WILL ACCEPT AN ORIGAMI ASSIGNMENT. colour it differently than what is on this template:  remember to write your name on a paper in the picture and/or include a pic of yourself, holding it up. https://www.yourgenome.org/activities/origami-dna

Assignment 1 and 2 on biology: An introduction to DNA

 Have a look at this introductory video on DNA.  DNA is a code, an alphabet.  Its alphabet has only 4 letters, and these 4 letters can create words, which make instructions for all of life.

In this lesson, you will learn the basic structure of DNA.

 

I would like you to answer these questions:
In Microsoft Teams, I would like you to find your assignments for this DNA unit.


ASSIGNMENT 1 :  part 1 DRAW DNA
First, draw a labeled picture of DNA that summarizes the main points of DNA.  Photograph this cartoon in a clear picture and hand it in.  your NAME MUST BE CLEARLY WRITTEN ON CARTOON.

The main points are:
