[BND 3 Yr 2] Biological molecules, continued

Once you have completed your biological molecules question sheets, write a summary of the following separation techniques:

- Paper chromatography
- Gas chromatography
- Thin-layer chromatography

You have looked at these earlier in the year with Michelle, so find your Unit 4 assignment and use your own work as reference material to complete this task.

[BND 3 Yr 1] Science Fayre

You are going to plan and carry out a short practical project. You can do this alone or as a pair. 

Here are your instructions:

- Choose a topic/area to investigate (e.g. cells/disease, etc)
- Look at biology experiment websites, such as http://practicalbiology.org/ for ideas
- Choose/create an investigation
- Write an equipment list


This needs to be ready by Thursday's lesson.


- We will be carrying out this practical work next week.
- This work goes towards an assignment next term.

Coming up next half term...

Got the winter term blues? Well, here is an exciting prospect to make the next few months seem a little bit more appealing!! 

We will be taking part in the "I'm a Scientist, Decipher my Data - Flu!" project, which will involve us taking part in a national scientific research project led by Dr Rob Aldridge and the Centre for Infectious Diseases, UCL. This project will feed in to an academic review and we may even have the chance to see our own work published in a science journal! 


To find out more, take a look for yourself:

[AS Biology AQA] Link to lipid animation

Here is a link to the animation about lipids that I used in Friday's lesson. You can search this website to find an animation for proteins too.

[BND3 Yr 1] Analogy for an animal cell

H6FC - Cell analogy

Cell membrane - Ola and Olu (security), control what enters/leaves the building

Nucleus - June (principal) has control of the Centre

Cytoplasm - Space within H6FC, teaching spaces and hallways. Contains elements of Centre, teaching and learning happens within it

Mitochondria - Refectory, provide food for energy

Lysosomes - Cleaning staff, remove waste created within H6FC

Vacuoles and vesicles - Lockers, useful items are stored here

Endoplasmic reticulum - Students, create work as a product of learning

Ribosomes - Teachers, tools for learning, help students to produce work

Golgi bodies - Exam bodies or coursework moderators, check work and give final grade
