#1DCCS #anatomy #NDHSChargers Using clearly defined sanitation protocols and protective equipment. NDHS anatomy students collected and prepared samples of their own cheeks cells to study cellular anatomy and practice microscope use.
#1DCCS #ANATOMY Today anatomy students were tasked with developing an experiment using potatoes as a model for blood cells that demonstrated the activity of those cells in hypertonic, isotonic, and hypotonic solutions. They did great!
#1DCCS #APBIO Super cool lab today in APBIO. We used KnoxBlox cubes of different sizes infused with pH indicator to test the hypothesis that surface area to volume ratio limits the size of cells.
#1DCCS #anatomy Anyone that’s visited today’s anatomy lab would have truly thought we were mad scientists as we performed various experiments on ourselves to test our skins physiological responses to disturbance.
#1DCCS #BIOLOGY Biology I students took the role of a carbon atom today and completed an experiment to model carbon’s paths through the biogeochemical cycle. We compared pre and post industrial revolution.
#1DCCS #Biology How do nutrients impact surface water? Biology I students designed experiments today to test the impact of nutrient concentration on the growth of algae.
#1dccs #chargerpride #APBIO Developed respirometers in lab today to test differences in the rate of respiration. Initial results were great. Now students will develop independent investigations using today’s procedures.
#1DCCS #chargerpride #APBIO Last week students followed structured procedures to measure respiration. Today they conducted independently designed investigations using last weeks discoveries as a starting point.
#1DCCS #CHARGERPRIDE #ANATOMY How IS your arm like a chicken wing? Anatomy students used a chicken wing dissection to model the human arm learning about joint movements and the roles of muscle, bone, tendon, ligament, and cartilage.
#1DCCS #ChargerPride #Biology Studying aquatic ecosystems. Biology students learned about the complex web of life forms that inhabit our local streams. Life at all scales. Gonna miss you the next two weeks! Be sure to spend some time outside.
#1DCCS #Biology #Photosynthesis Freshman biology students using spinach leaf disks to investigate what occurs during the light dependent reactions of photosynthesis. Great job today!
#1DCCS #NDCHARGERS #BIOLOGY Wait... photosynthesis needs chlorophyll,the pigment chlorophyll is green. Do red leaves have the same pigments? Do they do photosynthesis the same way? Experimental evidence suggests... YES.
#1DCCS #BIOLOGY Biology students measuring the rate of photosynthesis in yeast cells given different food sources such as sugar, starch, and cellulose.
#1DCCS #NDCHARGERS #BIOLOGY Using Knox blocks with pH indicator to investigate the rate of diffusion of material into different cell sizes. A quick, easy, and super illustrative lab. Great job!
