Biology Unit Test is on Tuesday May 10th!
All lecture slides/notes have been posted below.
(hints for test: make sure to study the different phases/parts of the cell cycle, including cell death, know the reasons why mitosis occurs, cell specialization hierarchy, animal and plant differences in tissues/organelles and structure, how organ systems work together, ethical issues in biology, and imaging technologies as well as Public health strategies. Note: all topics covered in class will be on the test)
Monday May 9th-- after school tutorial to take up all quizzes and questions
Biology Unit Assignment is due May 16th.
