5/5 Biology update and homework due 5/12

Hi folks,

Today we worked our way through part of the animal kingdom.

For homework next week:

Read pages 778 to 793 and 799 to 809

Do questions 5 - 14 on page 794
Do questions 5 - 14 on page 814

Also the week after next is the final exam. The final will be on material from the beginning of the year to now. The best way to study for the final is to look over all old quizzes. So… some more homework for next week is to REVIEW ALL OLD TESTS AND QUIZZES!!! I'll take as much time as needed next week to answer questions so please take this week to look over old material and see if you have any problems understanding any of it.

Also, if you feel you have any homework missing please feel free to email me so I can give you a list of what you may be missing.

Plant pics

By the way, if you're not sure where to find pictures of those plants, just go outside. I just mowed countless examples of them!

Have fun!
