1/10/11


At the beginning of class we talked about the school website. It is now back to the way it was before Christmas break. Somethings on Mr.Finley's page aren't there though. He updated his blogging calendar. We also found out that we have a quiz tomorrow on Passive transport, Active transport. osmosis, diffusion, tensity, and what the cell does in the presents of those solutions. It is a correctable quiz. Also, he changed his correction policy. Now he will correct a quiz and meet with you. If your answers are good you will get the points. Instead of correcting it and turning it in, you have to tell him everything in person. Mr.Finley handed back papers that were old. After Mr.Finley spoke to us, we started off from where we left off on Friday. We talked about mass. Mass is the amount of stuff something is made of ans is not weight. Mr.Finley had Nick come up to the front of the classroom. Mr.Finley then picked Nick up. He told us that he could tell how much Nick weighed by just picking him up. He also said that if he had done this in space, it wouldn't be the same because the weight would change. (Water-50g+sugar-10g)=(609). When comparing these, their equal. Mr.Finley wrote "stuff you have at the beginning of a process is equal to the stuff at the end of the process" on the board. Then he told us that he disagrees with this statement. He disagreed with it because he said when he went camping and had a fire, in the morning the log was lighter than at night. Smoke+ashy Log= Totally Good Log at The Beginning. We were then told to write what Conservation of Mass means. There is a saying that says "You are what you eat" because it explains conservation of mass. When you eat something it makes you fat or taller. In H2O there is 2 Hydrogen and 1 oxygen. In 3H2O there is 6 Hydrogen and 3 oxygen.

  1. Here is some-what of a study guide :D


    Quiz Study Guide
    Passive Transport-
    Active Transport-
    Hypotonic-
    Isotonic-
    Hypertonic-
    Osmosis-
    Diffusion-
    What does the cell do in the solution?
    Isotonic-
    Hypertonic-
    Hypotonic-

    Oh and what is Active/Passive Transpot?

  2. Active Transport is like pushing something up, where it would rather go down. Because active transport needs energy.

    Passive Transport is like pushing(or more like riding) something down a hill, because passive transport doesn't need energy!

    Does that help? ~Erica Wirth~

  3. Saad is here........maybe

    question: What do you mean when you say, you need to know what the cell does in a solution?

    Tensity:Hypo tonic- Less gradients or stuff compared to something else

    hyper tonic- more stuff than something else

    isotonic-same amount of stuff

    diffusion-process in which particles or stuff move to less concentrated areas

    osmosis- diffusion through water

    passive transport: diffusion involving no energy- good for the cell

    active transport:diffusion with energy from cell

    Concentration: amount of stuff in a specific area

    Do we have to meet up with Mr. Finley to discuss the corrections the day we get our quizzes back?
