Mr. Mak's Grade 8 Science Website

Learning Goal: Make sure you understand the function of all major parts of all organ systems that we went over in class.

*Final Products are due your FIRST Science class back, the week of Dec 11, 2017                             Can you describe the function of each organ system illustrated above? -To be completed in groups of two -The project can be completed in any format that covers all learning goals (video, presentation, board game, models, report, etc.) -For the organ system selected: 1 ) Describe the structure and function of t wo specialized cell types (drawing or model with labels and info.) 2) Describe the structure and function  of one important tissue (drawing or model with labels and info.) 3) Describe the structure and function of two key organs  (drawing or model with labels and info.) 4) Describe one disorder common to the cells, tissues or organs of this systems. Explain how it is dealt with. Treated vs. cured? (explanation / image) 5) One interesting new technology/medical advances related to this organ system (3-d

                                                 Which organelle is this? What is its function? *If you need any final extra help, Mr. Mak will be available after school on Monday in the D&T room 3:15-4:00 *If you miss the test due to Athletics or illness, it is your responsibility to co-ordinate a make-up time with Mr. Mak *Look over the list below to see if you are ready for our test.  Focus on reviewing the topic you are less confident with! -Review the three main ideas of the Cell Theory (ted ed video/questions) -Understand the difference between unicellular and multicellular (organelle video/questions) -Understand the difference between Eukaryotic and Prokaryotic (organelle video/questions) -Describe the function of all major organelles found in animal and plant cells (organelle video/video games) -Identify key organelles by their appearance (worksheet/organelle video/video games) -Predict the impact on plant or animal cells if an organelle does not function
