Biology 11 - Human Biology


PRE-LABS - Biology 11 FALL 2008 - PRE-LABS/POST-LABS

     Before each laboratory section you should access the corresponding pre-lab. The pre-lab is a work sheet that will prepare you for the content as well as the
experiment/s in your upcoming lab. Each pre-lab is worth 3 points and is designed to help you to get an overview of the material at the same time as it will facilitate your ability to complete the lab. It is very important the you have a good understanding of the procedures that will be used in the lab. By reading through the assigned upcoming lab you should be able to answer most of the questions of the pre-lab.  Your textbook may also be used as a resource to answer pre-lab questions. All the pre-labs of the semester are accessible on this page. You simply need to download each pre-lab and respond to the questions.
The post-lab worksheet is designed to review importnat concepts that you learned in lab.  Quiz questions may come directly form pre-lab and post-lab questions.
     Each lab begins with a laboratory quiz. Make sure to be there when the lab begins to be able to participate in the quiz. There will be no make-up quizzes in the lab.   Since more than 50% of your points in the lab come from your quiz scores it is very important that you complete the pre-lab and post-lab exercises.
