2021: You are now limited to only four late assignment submissions per quarter. If you have a missing assignment that you need to have graded, fill out one of the following "Request to Grade" forms: Form 1, Form 2, Form 3, Form 4 for each missing assignment. Each form can only be used once. You only need to notify me when you have completed an assignment that was missing in Aeries not only if it's missing in Google Classroom. Google Classroom assignments that are graded in Aeries have a (#) next to their title.

• Within a population organisms are always being born and dying. (1.2) • A system can be stable even as things are being added to and removed from it. If the amounts being added and being removed are not equal, then the system will change. (1.3) • If the number of births and deaths in a given time are equal, then the population size will be stable. (1.3) • If there are more births than deaths in a given time, then the size of the population will increase. If there are fewer births than deaths, then the size of the population will decrease. (1.3) •Organisms need to release energy from energy storage molecules in order to reproduce. (2.2) • Organisms in consumer populations get energy storage molecules from eating organisms in resource populations. (2.2) • The more energy storage molecules available to a population, the more the organisms in that population can reproduce. (2.2) • The larger the resource population, the more energy storage molecules are available for its consumer populations. (2.3) • The larger the consumer population, the more energy storage molecules it will need. Therefore, it will eat more, causing more deaths in the resource population. (2.4) •Two populations can compete for the same resource population. A change to one of these populations affects the size of the other. (3.2) • The size of a population can be affected by any population that is connected to it in a food web, even if they are not directly connected. (3.3)

The Critical Juncture Assessment will be on Monday.
Different substances have different properties.
Things that are too small (or too large) to see can be studied with models.
Substances have different properties because they are made of different groups of atoms. These groups vary in the type or number of atoms that make up the group.
Groups of atoms repeat to make up a substance.
During a chemical reaction, one or more starting substances (reactants) change into one or more different substances (products).
During a chemical reaction, atoms do not change from one type to another.
During a chemical reaction, atoms rearrange to form different groups of atoms.

***Special Note***: In an earlier lesson, we said that the freedom of motion of molecules increases as the temperature of the substance increases. That is not exactly true. The freedom of motion only changes when there is a phase change. (However, yes there is more motion of the molecules as they warm-up and speed up (this leads to thermal expansion), however the molecules' freedom of motion describes their relative motion, how they are moving compared to one another. (Solid: moving in place Liquid: sliding past each other Gas: can freely fly apart from each other)

Possible Claims:
Claim 1: Transferring energy into or out of a substance changes its temperature, which changes the molecules’ freedom of movement.
Claim 2: Transferring energy into or out of a substance changes the molecules’ kinetic energy, which changes their freedom of movement.
Claim 3: Transferring energy into or out of a substance changes the molecules’ speed, which changes their freedom of movement.
