This week\u2019s lab introduced you to the types of macro molecules found in food. You were able to apply this new knowledge by helping your friend get a healthy diet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Please download, complete and submit this Introduction to Food Macromolecules Lab Report and please format your lab report in a question-answer format (place each of your answers after the relevant question). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Many students find it helpful to have the lab report document open while they complete the Labster lab. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
As they complete the virtual lab, they jot down notes in the relevant parts of the lab report. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then, when they are finished with the lab, their lab reports are in rough form that they can then clean up and submit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Be sure to answer each question in the worksheet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The best answers will be thoughtful and descriptive.
There are no minimum word counts but in general more words will be better than fewer words.
The first four sections\u2013Title, Topic, Background Information, and Methods\u2013come directly from the lab. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
These should be pretty easy to write. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
You\u2019ll be mainly reporting on what you read and did while you worked through the lab. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
To score in the \u201cAccomplished\u201d range (see the Grading Rubric), you\u2019ll want to do this reporting in good detail across the portions of the lab that are relevant to each question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The last three sections\u2013Observations, Discussion, and Conclusions\u2013are the most important sections. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
These are where you show your learning from the lab and where you demonstrate how well you can apply that learning to broader aspects of life and you connect the learning from the lab to other topics in biology, beyond the direct confines of the lab. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Put a lot of good thought and writing in these last three sections.
The last question asks you what questions you have, now that you\u2019ve completed the lab. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
You should ALWAYS have questions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This shows that you got the point of the Lab. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Your questions should focus relate directly back to Question 2: What was the subject you were trying to understand better in the lab? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Your questions should show that you understood the lab and that you can extend that learning to new situations out in the world that are related to the central concepts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Please write in your own words as much as possible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This demonstrates you understanding of the concepts in a way that using quotes can\u2019t.
Please visually distinguish your answers from the questions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
