Biomolecules.
Each student will have to create a short video representing an explanation of
one of the topics of the list. (topics assigned by teacher)
In the video you need to show a model of the molecules involved. It can be
done with playdough, or papers and sticks. Drawings can also be used but will
grade less.
The videos have to be sent no later than Thursday April 23rd
