November 22/25

Bell Ringer:  Explain why a sea star would die when placed in fresh water and a trout would die if placed in salt water using concepts learned during this unit.
We talked about how some organisms maintain homeostasis in different aquatic environments.  Marine:  drink water and actively pump out salt.  Fresh water: do not drink water and excrete excess water in urine.
Today we completed a microscope lab where students looked at several types of cells using the microscope.
