HONORS BIOLOGY LAB Winters K
Honors Biology Lab
The laboratory component for this course is required in order to take the
Biology Regents Exam in June. It is mandatory that you complete the following:
1. a minimum of 1200 lab minutes
2. a lab write-up to accompany every lab which will be kept in a lab folder
3. 4 New York State required labs
-Diffusion through a membrane
-Making connections
-Beaks of finches
-Biodiversity
Each lab must be signed and dated by me upon completion.
Laboratory Rules:
1. You must be in lab ON TIME! It is essential that we start labs immediately
so there is enough time to complete them.
2. Please use caution and care when using lab equipment and chemicals in the
lab.
3. Because of the use of chemicals, bacteria, and other organisms, please do
not bring food or drink to lab with you.
4. Please try to complete lab write-ups DURING lab. I would like to avoid
having you remove lab write-ups from the classroom.
5. Use your time wisely. Lab is not a time to socialize. It is a class that is an
integral part of your overall biology grade.
6. Please keep a list of your labs on the sheet provided.
7. Try to avoid missing lab. It is not easy to makeup and will probably require
you to stay after school.
There will be occasional lab exams and quizzes

Lab Materials and Write-up During each lab, each student will have a lab BINDER that contains the materials and procedures for each lab. The binders stay in the room. Students will also have a folder to hold extra lab papers. Each student will also need a composition notebook for lab write-ups. Lab write-ups will be graded and need to be presented in the proper format. In order for full credit, the write-up must be in PEN, graphs and diagrams must be in PENCIL, and answers must be in complete sentences. Lab Notebook setup:

  • Number all of your pages in the UPPER RIGHT corner. Do not use the back of pages.
  • Page 1 should be your Table of Contents with the TITLE of each lab as well as the PAGE # it is on.
  • Each lab should have the following unless otherwise specified: Title: The title of your lab should reflect what the experiment is about. It should be specific and not vague. For example, a good title for a lab would be “The effect of increasing temperature on enzyme activity.” An example of a bad title would be, “Enzyme Lab.” Purpose/Objective: The purpose or objective of the lab should describe what the experimenter is interested in finding, as well as how it is going to be measured. Ex: The purpose of this lab is to determine the effect of increasing temperatures on enzyme activity. Enzyme activity will be determined by measuring the amount of product formed over a certain period of time. Hypothesis: A hypothesis is an educated guess as to what you think will happen in the experiment. It does not have to be right. An easy way to write a hypothesis is to write it as an “If…then” statement. For example, “If you increase the temperature, then enzyme activity will increase.”

Lab Questions: The questions associated with the lab should be answered in pen in complete sentences. These may be stapled into your lab notebook as well.
