General Biology II Figure List


Figure WORKSHEET
can be used to draw the figures
INSTRUCTIONS:
Purpose: Use your text book and copy -- by hand, the figures listed below. By spending some time drawing and discussing these figure you learn, and hopefully understand, their meaning and importance.

Deadlines: You must finish and turn in all drawings for a Unit BEFORE the exam for that Unit. That way you will be able to use what you learned from your drawings on the exam. The unit drawings are due the same day as the unit exam. (Except unit I drawing, see the calendar.) When you submit the drawings for a grade each must be in plastic sheet protector (actually, you can use one for two drawings -- one on each side) placed in a reasonable size binder (max 1 inch back).

Grading note: The figures must have a title page, and all figures must have a caption explaining the figure. (Not just a figure number and a title.) Even though this is not an art class, the figures you draw for unit II and III will be graded for a little more care and accuracy. You will not be graded for artistic talent and are not expected to spend hours and hours making drawings -- the assignment is only worth a few percent of your total biology grade, but sloppy work and lack of care will not be accepted. You will then also loose the points for your unit I drawings. Also, you must plan so you have time to do ALL the drawings for each unit. You are only asked to do a few drawings, if you don't have time to do all of them -- don't turn in the assignment.


Students: Note major figure differences between Mader textbook ed. 7 and ed. 8.
