Classification:
This picture repersents classification because I learned a lot from this, this activity gave me the learning of what classification is. I learned the similarity of animals and thye differences, and I learned what kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species is.
Taxonomy:
On my blog there is a Taxonomy activity Classification and Taxonomy is very similiar, but Taxonomy ias in more detail. Each species belongs to a genus, each genus belongs to a family, and so on through order, class, phylum, and kingdom. My blog post really introduced me to the term Taxonomy, so I enjoy what I learned about it.
Evolution:
This was my evolution project, I learned what evolution was by this project because it was a ver tricky thing to do. It was hard to see which animal goes together, basically evolution is how animals change through time.
Viruses:
This is one of the worksheets I've done on viruses and this has helped me very much. I've learned that viruses go into the cell and they carry proteins. Ive also learned that there are two types of viruses one type is Lytic and the other is Lysogenic, both of the viruses go through a life cycle.
Bacteria:
Both of these two experiments gave me an idea of how bacteria grows and how many it multiples by, I learned what kills bacteria the most and what places perhaps may have a lot of bacteria. Bacteria is in the domain kingdom of prokaryotic microorganism, bacteria is in the form of spirals, rods, and spheres. After learning about bacteria I know the difference between bacteria and virus.
Protists:
This is one of the protist labs we have done, I really enjoyed finding protists and looking at where they come from and and all the many different ways they look. Protists are eukaryotic microorganisms, and mostly protists are in the kingdom called protista and most of these are unicellular. And lastly protists contain DNA and RNA and have ribosomes.
Overall:
The part that I loved learning the most was Taxonomy and Evolution, I believe that these were the most interesting to me and I learned a lot in these topics. The amount of work that I put in this class can improve, but I hand it almost all of the work assigned. I love biology and I'm excited for the rest of the semester, I also like how we get to express our love to biology through the internet and that we get to share cool stuff. I think that in this class I deserve at least a B of 73%, and I will improve my work habits in class and always hand in everything from now on.
Shimmi - Thanks for posting a reflection. Your best work in our class is when you are challenged (the adaptive radiation puzzle) and you really apply yourself to the task. I would love to see that more as the semester continues - putting your abundant energy & qualities as a leader into learning! You have lots of great questions and ideas that you are willing to share, which can make our entire class even more successful. I hope to see you engaged in class, getting your work done, reviewing material for quizzes & making positive choices as the semester continues.
