3. What knowledge have you connected with past knowledge?

Throughout this semester I have connected a lot of my past knowledge with topics that we are going over now. When we went over proteins amino acids during the second class, I was able to recall a lot of background information that I have obtained even from my earliest classes of biology. When we went over membranes, I encountered a lot of past knowledge because we are going over the same topic in Animal Physiology. The Sodium Potassium pump is a topic that is talked about, even in small detail in high school biology. We also talked about some of the enzymes that we have gone over in genetics which I completed last spring.

It is amazing to see how all these science classes interconnect and that all these classes really are building blocks. The further you go in these science classes you more in depth you go in the processes, however you still need all your prior knowledge in order to succeed.
