Bio LOGICS 3 2019: Matchmakers or Cheaters fans? Meiosis or Mitosis Fans?

Good morning, my people!!! (As good as Monday mornings can get...). Last Friday I was discussing enzymes with one 3rd year group and we talked about their role as "Matchmakers" or "Divorce Detectives" (like the ones in Cheaters...)

(as you can see, it will take some of the zigillionnaires ages to find a wife on their own! 😜😜)

The man with the glasses and black raincoat is the host of this TV show and he helps wives and husbands to discover their unfaithful partners.

Well, while I keep enjoying these shows, I hope you have started summarising and revising for our FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 6TH test!!! REMEMBER that the topics will be:

*CHEMICALS OF LIFE
*CELL REPRODUCTION (Mitosis & Meiosis)
*ENZYMES (for 3rd year on Thursdays and Fridays)
*ALL the challenges of this term
*ALL your previous knowledge on CELLS, CHARACTERISTICS OF LIFE and HISTORY of LIFE

I'm including here my powerpoints on CHEMICALS, ENZYMES and CELL REPRODUCTION

3ero 4 enzymes mine from Andrea Sánchez del Rio

3ero 3 chemicals of life mine from Andrea Sánchez del Rio

Mitosis meiosis mine from Andrea Sánchez del Rio

In your booklets, you have also got the chapters of the book with all this info and my summaries on these topics. Remember the chart on page 165 on carbs, proteins and lipids.

VIDEO TIME

1) A video on enzymes

2) Another video on Enzymes by my friends Amoeba Sisters

3) Before talking about CELL DIVISION, let's demystify your beliefs on chromosomes

4) Video on Mitosis we watched in class

5) More on MEIOSIS

Hope you find everything useful. Here are some tips to be really prepared for the test:
