Unit 2: Cell Respiration, Photosynthesis and Cell Division
Notes About Unit 2
Unit 2 covers three very important topics: cellular respiration (how cells harvest fuel from organic molecules), photosynthesis (how plants make organic molecules from inorganic molecules) and cell division. There are 4 textbook chapters in this unit and they are - how to say it? - robust. Don't forget that all of my 'Chapter Previews' are on the Restricted Area - they are intended to give you a broad overview of the chapter before you read it or watch the tutorials.

Three hundred trout are needed to support one man for a year. The trout, in turn, must consume 90,000 frogs, that must consume 27 million grasshoppers that live off of 1,000 tons of grass. |
