1. Comp. Notebook Pg. 15: Homeostasis Lab Post-Lab Questions (CSRQ or Write Down)
What body systems had to work for your body to maintain homeostasis and not overheat during exercise?
Explain why an increase in heart rate and breathing rate accompanies exercise.
Describe what EACH body system did to maintain homeostasis and keep your body going for the entire exercise time? (You must talk about the functions of some organs in the body systems to help describe this.)
We graded/went over these at the beginning of class.

2. Claim Evidence Reasoning (CER)
(4.5.16) Comp. Notebook Page 16:
Claim Evidence Reasoning (CER)

Your claim is the statement that answers your original question.
The claim is one sentence in length.
The claim must be accurate, specific, and completely answer the question.

5. CLAIM Commercials make claims for you to want to buy their product.

7. EVIDENCE
Be careful with this one (is it a true experience or just an opinion

8. REASONING
Reasoning is the explanation that connects your claim to the evidence that supports it.
It shows why the data you chose counts as evidence.
This explanation acts as a “conclusion” of your experiment.
It shows a detailed understanding of the scientific principals involved and uses correct science vocabulary.
The reasoning should usually be at least 2-3 sentences in length.

10. On Your White Board: CER Box-Chart
Question: Is her dad an alien?
Claim (What’s your answer to the question asked?):

12. On Your White Board: Mars Curiosity Rover
Question: What question is trying to be answered?
Claim:
1.No life was on Mars.
2.There was life on Mars.
Evidence What evidence is being collected to answer the question?

Read the scenario below, look at the data given in the table, and answer the prompt.
Here’s some help to get started: What are the possible questions that could be asked?
1. Running a mile does not have an effect on the student’s cardiovascular system.
2. Running a mile does have an effect on the student’s cardiovascular system.
What is your evidence to support your claim.

16. Do this on your white board please.
