   10/08/19 Lytic & Lysogenic Cylces Poster

Make a poster showing the lytic and lysogenic cylces of bacteria.

10/10/19  KURU VIDEO below.

Watch the video.  Then you can take the quiz over the video.

Tri-Fold Pamphlet or Glog

Title it with animal's name and scientific name.

IUCN Red Listing  For Example: Critically Endangered, Endangered, Threatened etc…

Global Population 

Why does the animal have its’ current listing?  What anthropogenic activities contribute to the decline of this animal’s population?  (Are invasive species to blame? Pollution?  Habitat Destruction? )

Animals with a limited range or specialized habitat are more vulnerable to habitat and ecosystem disruption. What is this animals range and does it contribute to the decline of the population?  What is this animals habitat?   Is it highly specialized and does that contribute to population problems?

Include a model to show the flow of energy in your animal's ecosystem.  Analyze the model.  Which type of animals require a larger range: producers, primary, secondary or tertiary consumers?  How does this affect population?

Animals with a highly specialized diet cannot adapt to changes in their environment as readily as those with a varied diet.  Does this animals’ diet contribute to the population decline?

What is the captive population of your species?

What adverse affects or challenges face your species captive population?

Part II to be completed during and after our trip to TWP.

During the trip to TWP take a picture of your species and a short video.  Post it to your glog.

Take special note of the habitat provided by TWP.  How is it like the wild habitat?  How does it differ?

What types of interactions with other animals of the same species are provided compared to what the animal might experience in the wild?

Also note the diet of the captive animal as compared to what it's wild counterparts would consume.  What are the differences?

What are the pros and cons of breeding captive populations?

The Role of Reproduction

• the following male sex cell and organs: sperm, testes, scrotum, vas

deferens, prostate, urethra, penis

• the following female sex cell and organs: egg, ovaries, fallopian

tubes, uterus, cervix, vagina

• problems that may arise in the reproductive track: ovarian cysts,

cervical cancer, testicular cancer, prostate cancer

• changes that occur in mother and child during first, second, and

third trimesters

• the medical terms: pregnancy, miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy,

preeclampsia

• various forms of birth control

Review the Endocrine System

• the role of the endocrine system and hormones

• the following glands: pituitary, hypothalamus, thyroid, adrenal,

testes, ovaries, pancreas, liver

• the following hormones: testosterone, estrogen, progesterone, human

chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), insulin, glycogen

• the glycemic index (again)

• problems that may arise: type 1 and 2 diabetes

 REVIEW THE ROLE OF THE RESPIRATORY SYSTEM

• the role of the respiratory system

• the following organs: nasal cavity, trachea, epiglottis, bronchi tubes,

lungs, alveoli, and diaphragm

• problems that can arise in the respiratory system: pneumonia,

bronchitis, asthma, hiccups

• the term lung capacity

Review the circulatory system:

 • the role of the circulatory system

• the following blood vessels: veins, arteries, and capillaries

• the following parts of the heart: superior and inferior vena cava,

right atria, right ventricle, pulmonary artery, pulmonary vein, left atria,

left ventricle, and aorta

• the following parts of blood: red blood cells, white blood cells,

plasma, and platelets.

• problems that may arise from poor nutrition or genetics: high

blood pressure, heart attack, strokes, hemophilia, and sickle cell anemia.

 Review the immune system.

• the role of the immune system

• the following organs: spleen, thymus, bone marrow, and lymph nodes

• the following white blood cells and their functions: T-cells and

B-cells

• the difference between viral infections and bacterial infections

• the terms: vaccines, antibodies, and antigens

• problems that may arise in the immune system:

• viral sexually transmitted infections: HIV, HPV, herpes simplex I

and II, hepatitis C;

• bacterial sexually transmitted infections: chlamydia, gonorrhea,

syphilis

• other infections or health conditions of student interest: chicken

pox, mononucleosis, measles, leukemia, autoimmune disorders
