Happy New Year!
Tests from Chapter 3 were passed back Wed.
We are chunking Section 4(pages 101-106) of Chapter 3 which deals with protein synthesis and mutations.
Their homework has been to read this section, complete the questions on page 106, 1-5, and pass in a drawing depicting protein synthesis on Fri. I have been modeling different scenarios in class using parking garages, airports, wharves, habitats, etc, as nuclei from which messenger RNA leaves to meet up with tRNA at a ribosomal niche in the cytoplasm and create protein via amino acids. If they wish not to take the analogy challenge, they may neatly copy the picture from 104-105.
They need titles, labels, and descriptions. This will count as a quiz mark.
