Biology+30

Welcome to Biology 30! Please click on the required File name to open it up! Thanks for visiting! We will start with a copy of your course outline and course objectives from the curriculum.



We will begin our study of Biology 30 by learning about the biochemistry and the macro molecules within our body. Please begin your study by completing the assignments in numerical order and take note of former student work included as examples for some of the assignments. Please be sure to get a copy of the Amino Acid Bases and the genetic code.
 * Unit 1 Biochemistry**




 * Unit 2 Cell Processes and Function**

1. We will begin with the section on MitosisvsMeiosis by opening up the note package and completing the Mitosis/Meiosis worksheets.
 * Unit 3 Genetics**



2. Next up is the actual discussion on Genetics by beginning with the note package entitled Mendel Notes, followed by the BeyondMedel notes and finally the notes package on Chromosones and Gene Mutations. While completing all of these notes, we will also be completing the questions found in the Geneticsquestionspunnett file. We should be working on completing these questions as we are finishing up each section of notes. 3. Please complete the From Parents to Child worksheets. 4. We will read the Biotechnology notes and then watch the movie Gattaca. While watching the movie, you will need to answer the questions supplied to you. 5. We will end the unit by looking that the Hardy-Weinberg Principle and discussion how genetics can affect evolution.
