Document Summary

Animal organs cells organelles chemical atom. If we want to understand what an organ is doing, look at the cells. In issues, why are muscles doing something, look at the individual cells. Look at funcion of organelles, look at speciic parts of the cell & understand behaviour of cell. Going as far down as chemical, will work our way down to the chemical level in this course. Will also examine synthesis, go back up the chain (chemical organelles cells organ animal) Will not be told to repeat the facts. Will be tested on understanding of the facts, use the facts to explain things. Will be given pracice quizzes beforehand, will go over pracice quesions. Quizzes will test understanding by making predicions. Observaions scienists start with the observaions that were made. Hypothesis explain the paterns that you see, tentaive explanaion of things. Predicions compare predicions to observaions & see if they match up, if they do the hypothesis is correct.
