Document Summary

If cognition, memory, and intelligence are underlying mechanisms that allow us to perceive, process, and apply information for daily adaption, then learning is a natural consequence of these mechanisms. Learning is defined as a relatively permanent change in a person"s knowledge or behavior as a result of experience . When we transfer knowledge or information to long-term memory and that is elaborated, rehearsed, and practiced, then learning happens. However, the notion of learning is underlined by notions of self-efficacy and human agency. Self-efficacy is defined as the extent to which we believe we can confidently learn and master a particular skill. when an individual has high self-efficacy, they are likely to engage in challenging tasks and recover from disappointments quickly. On the other hand, people with low self-efficacy are likely to avoid difficult tasks because of lack of confidence and result to having low self-esteem. Thus, self-efficacy is a crucial factor behind learning and performance.

This assignment will review and test your knowledge of the four major biomolecules, You will complete and submit a chart with information about biomolecules including their monomer, polymer, the elements in them, their functions or purpose, and examples.

Background Information:

Biomolecules are molecules found in cells and living organisms. There are four major categories of biomolecules. They are carbohydrates, lipids, nucleic acids, and proteins. These molecules are found in all organisms and serve many different functions. They are made of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorus (CHONP). Every biomolecule contains carbon, but not all biomolecules contain the other elements.

Biomolecules are made of a monomer that comes together with other monomers to create a polymer.

Monomer: the individual unit or building block of a biomolecule
Polymer: a substance made of many individual monomers that are similar and bonded together

Assignment:

In this assignment you will fill in the information for the chart below. Your chart will need to include each biomolecule and its monomer, polymer, the elements in its molecules, its function or purpose, and examples. For the function/purpose and examples, you only need to include one or two for each biomolecule.

Submission:

You will submit a version of the chart below with all of the needed content. You may draw your, own chart on paper or on the computer to turn in.

This is a sample chart that includes all of the needed categories of information.

Biomolecules

In this assignment you will be using the scientific method to develop your own experiment. You will not be conducting the experiment but you will develop one based on a hypothesis. You will submit a project containing the needed information outlined under the "Project" section.

Background Information:

The scientific method is a process used by scientists to develop experiments and test hypotheses. This process begins by making observations. The next step is to develop a question based on these observations, such as how something works.

Based on the question under investigation, a hypothesis is created. A hypothesis should be a prediction of what happens. It is written in an "if, then" format. An is designed to test a specific hypothesis. A scientific experiment should have an independent variable, dependent variable, and a control group. The independent experiment variable is what is changed in the experiment. The dependent variable is what is measured in the experiment.

A control group is a group in which the independent variable undergoes no change. The control group in an experiment serves as a baseline to measure the results of the experiment and can be very useful in isolating unknown factors which may influence the dependent variable.

Remember that a good experiment includes multiple repetitions for each experimental group.

Once an experiment has been conducted, all of the data collected is analyzed. Scientists look for trends in the data and use statistical analysis to compare all of the experimental groups. This is then compared to the hypothesis to see if the data does or does not support the hypothesis. Through this method scientists draw conclusions about their hypothesis based on whether or not their experiment was successful.

Below are the instructions for each section of the project. For this assignment you will follow the steps of the scientific method and develop your own experiment.

You will need to include all of the following information:

Topic: Start by deciding what you would like to investigate. Your topic may be related to biology, the environment around you, or some other topic you are interested in.

Observations: Make a number of observations related to your topic. If the topic you chose isn't something you can observe around you then you may conduct research about your topic and record any noteworthy information. Include a paragraph describing your observations in your final submission.

Questions: Using your observations or research, think about your topic and ask some questions. Think about how it works or why it may behave a certain way. Come up with two or three questions about your topic.

Hypothesis: Use the questions you came up with to develop your hypothesis. This is a prediction of what you think will happen and should be able to be tested. A hypothesis is written in an "if, then" format. If this happens, then this will happen.

Experiment: Once you develop a hypothesis, think of how it could be tested in an experiment. What would you be testing? What would you measure? Remember that you need a control group. The purpose of this group is to serve as a reference that can be used to compare your experimental results to. This gives you something to compare with all the experimental groups and monitor any change. Record all of the following information about your experiment.

Independent Variable: This is what you are changing in the experiment.

Dependent Variable: This is what you are measuring.

Control Group: This is the group unaffected by the independent variable.

Experimental Groups: These are the groups affected by the independent variable and there should be multiple replications for each group.

Submission:

Be creative with how you present your information. This can be done in a list, in a chart, in paragraph form, or another way. Be sure to include your topic, observations, questions, hypothesis, and the details of your experiment. Be descriptive with your language in each section and use correct grammar.
