AP Biology Labs
Pre-laboratory Assignments
1. Complete the online versions of the laboratory and practice lab quizzes (online text resources and LabBench).
2. Study the student and/or teacher section of the laboratory and attempt to answer all of the questions in the manual that do not require data from the experiment.
3. Answer the PRELAB QUESTIONS for the main procedures of the lab and email/share your responses to me.
To receive credit for your work, the SUBJECT must be in the following format:
Block_[your block number]_[Your Lastname]_[Proper Lab Name]
For example, Block_3_Smith_Animal Behavior
Remember to frequently backup your files while you work and save a copy of your final files in case of electronic failure.
LabBench Virtual Laboratories
(experiments from the "old" AP Bio curriculum; do only 1, 2 (concepts only), 5, 6, 8, 9, 10 (Q10 concept only), 11, 12)
Laboratory 12 Animal Behavior
Laboratory 10 Energy Dynamics
Laboratory 13 Enzymes
Differentiate between "relative rate" and "absolute rate" as well as the different methods to determine each. (T217 and T221-222)
Laboratory 4 Diffusion & Osmosis
Laboratory 5 Photosynthesis
see also Photosynthesis in Leaf Disks
Laboratory 6 Cellular Respiration
Laboratory 7 Cell Cycle, Mitosis, and Meiosis
Laboratory 8 Bacterial Transformation
Laboratory 9 Restriction Enzyme Analysis of DNA
Laboratory 1 Artificial Selection
Laboratory 2 Mathematical Modeling Hardy-Weinberg
Laboratory 3 Comparing DNA Sequences to Determine Evolutionary Relationships - BLAST
Laboratory 11 Transpiration
