B2.3 using a light microscope, identify visible organelles of a plant cell in a wet mount and an animal cell from a prepared slide, produce an accurate labelled drawing of each cell, and calculate and properly express the magnification of each image [PR, AI, C]
B2.4 investigate the effects of various qualitative factors on the action of enzymes (e.g., the effect of temperature or pH on the breakdown of starch by salivary enzymes) [PR, AI]
B2.5 conduct biological tests to identify biochem- ical compounds found in various food samples (e.g., use a biuret solution to test for proteins in samples of gelatin and albumin), and compare the biochemical compounds found in each food to those found in the others [PR, AI]
B. Understanding Basic Concepts
By the end of this course, students will:
B3.1 describe the structures and functions of important biochemical compounds, including carbohydrates, proteins, enzymes, and lipids
B3.2 explain the roles of various organelles, including lysosomes, vacuoles, mitochondria, cell membranes, ribosomes, the endoplasmic reticulum, and Golgi bodies, in the processes of digestion, cellular respiration, and protein synthesis
B3.3 explain the chemical changes and energy transformations associated with the process of cellular respiration, and compare the reactants (i.e., glucose, oxygen) to the products (i.e., water, carbon dioxide, ATP)
B3.4 explain the importance of various cellular processes in human systems (e.g., enzymes act as biological catalysts to regulate chemical processes in the cells of the digestive system)
