Review
files for review on Wednesday are posted on E-Learning. We will
also go over the Practice Exam.
This is the first extra
credit assignment. There will be at least
three during the semester. You may do any or all of them for a
total of 10 points each (30 for all). That can raise your total
score by 5% out of the possible 600 points for the course. Visit
the Florida Museum of Natural History, Powell Hall Exhibit Hall and go
to the South Florida People and Environments Exhibit. Take this worksheet with you and fill it out as you
go through the exhibit.
Harvard
Cell Animated Video Link - submitted by a classmate. After
the cell lectures, you should recognize many structures/processes going
on in this animation of the cell. Particularly obvious is the
Golgi apparatus sending and receiving vesicles. You will
recognize more of the action after we have discussed the
cytoskeleton. Thanks Jordan!
