reviewing notes for the test, Thursday, Oct 11 on Biomolecules

Review info from the notes on  protein lipids and carbohydrates 

Here are some sample multiple choice questions.  We did not go over nucleotides yet, so just ignore those questions.  They are old provincial exam questions
SAMPLE BIOMOLECULE QUESTIONS. 

Take a look at ONLY page 8-16 of this document
Biological Molecules
It's quite an effective review of the material!

And work on the cell colouring worksheet.   You ought to know the cell and the  equation for cell respiration and the purpose of ATP.  Also know the basic cell organelles from junior science.

You have your worksheet on biomolecules too.  And all the open book quiz questions.


ASSIGNMENT DUE THURSDAY
Make a creative and colourful STUDY BOOKLET of all the things we learned so far.  Hand this in on the test date.
