Homework:
None over the weekend.

If you were out:
Copy and complete the Do Now below:
12/2/16 Do Now: Overall, if you were going to copmare prokayrotes(which includes Eukaryotes) how would you describe them?
In class, we described the details of the differences between prokaryotes and eukaryotes, and then came to the conclusion that prokaryotes are much simpler organisms than Eukaryotes.
We also started some Naked Eggs, by placing chicken eggs in vinegar. As you may recall, eggs are an example of a really big cell. The shells are made of calcium carbonate, and vinegar dissolves them and causes carbon dioxide bubbles to be released as it does so. The end result is that once the shell is dissolved, we will be able to see the liped bilayer of the egg cell membrane. We will be doing some additional work with this next week to see how substances move back and forth across the cell membrane.
Finally, you will need to get a copy of the guided reading handout that goes along with our reading for pages 68-70, and join a reading group. Those groups that are quiet and productive can continue, otherwise, I may have to rearrange some groups.
