First set of notes


Today was your first set of notes!  We started the class with the following daily questions:

In order to be considered alive - all living organisms must contain at least one Cell.

Within that (cell) all living organisms contain a molecule of DNA which codes for everything about the organism.

True or False:  If something moves then it is alive. Why or why not?
FALSE:  Just because something moves (like my car) does not mean it's alive and just because something DOESN'T move (Like a tree) does not mean it ISN'T alive.

I then let you guys see the "Movie Trailer" to this section.  Here it is again for you to see.  There were some good questions in here to keep in mind as we go through these notes.


We then started into the characteristics of life notes.  Please check Edline if you missed any of these.

We got through the slides dealing with cellular organization and some of the examples of homeostasis. Tomorrow we will continue through these notes with the hopes of doing our first activity on Wednesday and Thursday this week! 

Keep up the great work guys!
