Dear Parents and students,

Bring out the memes!  The Krebs Memes Project is one of the fun projects we do each year.  The students are always very creative and there are lots of laughs in class.  We may also see some yeast respiration this week.

Here is our class schedule for next week:

Read: 2.26 Glycolysis
Notes and Practice: 2.27 Krebs Cycle
Glycolosis Krebs Memes Project
Create 2 memes: One that explains glycolysis and one that explains the Krebs Cycle. Humor is appreciated.

Notes and Practice: 2.28 Electron Transport
Electron Transport Project
Create a detailed diagram of the electron transport system in your lab notebook. Make sure to explain how it works. Neatness and accuracy will be graded.

Project ONLY
Write a short story about the life of a glucose molecule in a plant. How was it born? What is it’s life cycle and how does it’s life end? Think of this like a storybook for a child.

Notes and Practice: 2.29 Fermentation
Respiration/Fermentation Lab After setting up your lab experiment, research glucose and sucrose. Which is more effective in producing energy? Make sure to do research and explain why this is.

Notes and Practice: 2.30 Anaerobic and Aerobic Respiration
Finish Respiration/Fermentation Lab​
