Transcription and Translation Notes for IB Diploma Year 1 DNA is a huge information database that carries the complete set of instructions for making all the proteins a cell will ever need! Although there are only four different bases in DNA (A‚ C‚ G and T)‚ the order in which the bases occur determines the information to make a protein‚ just like the 26 letters of the alphabet combine to form words and sentences: Compare: RAT - TAR - ART - same 3 letters; completely different meanings.

IB Environmental Systems and Societies Unit 1 Systems and Models “Nautre Does nothing uselessly” Aristotle (384 – 322 BC) Assessment statement 1.1.1 Outline the concept and characteristics of systems. Apply the systems concept on a range of scales. Teacher’s notes The emphasis will be on ecosystems but some mention should be made of economic‚ social and value systems. The range must include a small-scale local ecosystem‚ a large ecosystem such as a biome‚ and Gaia as an example of a global

Elasticities Price elasticity of demand (PED) Law of demand tells us that P goes up Q goes down or P goes down and Q goes up. But it doesn’t give us any information about by how much Q changes compared to P. We want to know‚ using the PED‚ whether Q is changing by a lot compared to P‚ by a little bit compared to P or by the same rate as P. If %∆P<%∆Q‚ this good is called relatively elastic. If %∆P>%∆Q‚ this good is called relatively inelastic. If %∆P=%∆Q‚ this good is called unit elastic.

Original Article EDITORIAL Airlines‚ Emissions and Europe’s Sensible Plan Published: February 26‚ 2012 The carbon dioxide from airplanes accounts for about 3 percent of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions‚ a share projected to go up as air traffic rises. The European Union is now requiring airlines that fly into or out of Europe to pay a fee for these emissions. This is a smart response to an urgent problem. The United States and the other nations opposing the program should either come

Define scarcity. Provide examples of goods that are not scarce.Scarcity is the limited resources and services that are available to humans that have an infinite want and need for them. I do not believe that we have a resource and/or a service that is not scarce. The supply and demand for resources and services in some areas may not be up but that does not make them available infinitely. Public policies often alter the costs and benefits of private actions. Why is it important for policymakers

Genes and Genetics 1. 2. each chromosome exists as two genetically identical chromatids attached to their centromere. Each chromosome appears as two chromatids attached to a centromere. In the first meiotic division chromosomes align in homologous pairs. Points of contact form between members of the same homologous pair. The points of contact or crossing over between members of a homologous pair are the chiasmata. 3. The homologous pairs move to the equator of the cell. Equal lengths of the

Determining the equilibrium constant from pH values of changing concentrations of ethanoic acid Design Research question: How will altering the concentrations of ethanoic acid affect the pH value‚ and‚ in-turn‚ the equilibrium constant? Background information: When weak acids react‚ the reaction typically does not go to completion. Rather‚ the system goes to an intermediate state in which the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal. Such a system is said to be in chemical equilibrium
