Bohr Diagram and Lewis Diagram

   

You will practice drawing Bohr Diagrams and Lewis diagrams.   You can practice this by working through  this Study guide on the same topic  and the Answer key   or you can work on any worksheets provided in class.

Your teacher will make a list of your names from the attendance roster and give you 5 marks for completing this work

The Analogy of Lego and an intro to the Periodic Table

 

An analogy for Atoms, Compounds and Formula, drawn by SN This video is the first in the series for beginner Chemistry. In this video, I use the analogy of the atom as units very much like "lego bricks". This analogy was first used by researchers in MIT.

EM scavenger hunt

 

First block 

1.  A wave with a frequency that is slower than infrared waves and faster than radio waves 

2.   Living things that have 7 colours of the visible spectrum (Can be 7 people) 

3.   Americium

4.   Someone who got radiation *on purpose * 

5.  find something with radio waves 

Second block  

1.  a radioactive food

2.   Something that makes  a with a frequency wave slower than infrared wave and which can transmit images and sound

3.   Someone who has had radiation on purpose & the radiation has a faster wavelength than UV

4.   Someone with something that *filters* UV light 

5.  Something that makes waves with a frequency that is slower than infrared, faster than radio waves 

6.  Americium 

codominance

What if the heterozygous trait exhibited codominance?  in this case, two alleles can code for co-dominant traits.  That is, neither is dominant over the other.  Blood type is an example of this:

A is codominant to B
A is dominant over O
B is dominant over O

Possible genotypes:

heterozygous AB blood gives both type A protein and type  B protein on the erythrocytes.

homozygous AA gives blood type A  protein on the erythrocytes
homozygous BB is blood type B protein on the erythrocytes

Heterozygous AO is gives blood type A
Heterozygous BO is blood type B

 

Sex linkage

 SEX LINKED GENES

In the following post, I will refer to "male" and "female".  This refers to people with male sex organs or people with female sex organs.  People with these organs can identify with a diverse range of gender such as:

Man, woman, nonbinary. This gender identify is not presumed by the presence of male or female sex organs

They might also identify as

LGBTQ2S++

The following descriptions are biological descriptions refer to 

male= male sex organs like testes, producing sperm

female= female sex organs like ovaries, producing eggs. 

The sex chromosomes are XX and XY in humans. Some alleles are located on the X chromosome. But very few on the Y chromosome.  Remember that people who are  females have the genotype XX and people who are males have XY.

The Y chromosome carries very little information, only enough to influence the embryo on the path towards male primary and secondary characteristics.

Meanwhile, many RECESSIVE ALLELES are located on the X chromosome, including
1. hemophilia, the inability to clot blood
2. colourblindness inability to tell the difference between red and green colour
3.  baldness

These characteristics are far more common in people with male sex organs  than people with female sex organs because  people with male organs have only one X. And if that X contains the recessive allele, they will show the phenotype.  Meanwhile,people with  female organs may have the recessive and their dominant genes on their other X will protect them.  For example

An example of using a punnet square to calculate probability is here:

Some things to note about sex linkage:  Signs of sex linked alleles are:
1. more genotypic males get the phenotype, but genotypic females can be carriers
2.  males can inherit from mother but not father (because males get their X from mom)
3.  genotypic females have an extra X and this protects them.  Females must be homozygous to show the sex linked phenotype.

FYI if you were born a male and you want to know if you're colourblind:  Test yourself here: But careful, if you are a genetically male, you might find out you are colour blind!  Apparently most people find out they are colourblind from their science teacher !

Assignment - 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.
