8th Grade Life Science

 

Week 26

 Date Objective/ Procedure Handouts/ Labs Homework
3/7

Energy in Food
1. Science Journal- How do you get the energy you need?- think use equation for cellular Respiration

2.Confirm energy in food by burning snack foods by burning food to heat water in order to quantify food energy, and calculate the calories.

3. Learn the difference between small calories and kilocalories used to measure the energy in food.

NJCCCS 5.1  & 5.6

 17. Energy in Food/ Food Producers

3/8 Energy Transfer

1.Science Journal: Write the Equation for Photosynthesis- think- The gas we give plants + a very important liquid + the big ball of fire in the sky ----> A very sweet food + A very important gas plants give us

2.Learn that photosynthesis is the process that produces new energy-rich biomass called food.

3. 3.Use p. 33. Energy for Life- Sec 3 Content Mastery/ Reinforcement to review vocabulary: metabolism, respiration, fermentation, photosynthesis. producers, consumers

Assignments #7

 

*  Make sure to do Assignment 7 and any other assignments you have not done or didn't do too well on-  check Edmodo- I put some extra credit there- end of marking period is nearing! Quiz is still tomorrow- know: Photosynthesis: 6CO2 + 6H2O+ Sun --->C6H12O6 +6 O2

Assignments #7

 

Quiz Thursday: Know Equation for Photosynthesis: 6CO2 + 6H2O+ Sun --->C6H12O6 + 6 O2- & reverse for Respiration- determine exothermic or endothermic, reactants, products, whether producers or consumers do process- and where in cell it takes place (mitochondria or chloroplast)

 

3/10

Food Producer Experiment

1.Inquire into where food energy comes from by processing data from a hypothetical experiment to discover the conditions under which plants add biomass.

2.Learn that photosynthesis is the process that produces new energy-rich biomass called food.

3. Demonstrate knowledge on a quiz: Photosynthesis: 6CO2 + 6H2O+ Sun --->C6H12O6 + 6 O2- & reverse for Respiration- determine exothermic or endothermic, reactants, products, whether producers or consumers do process- and where in cell it takes place (mitochondria or chloroplast)
