Study Guide / UPA :

Today we will prepare for the Unit Final on Friday 4/26. You will have time today to turn in the exercise lab (and complete it, if needed), find out if you're missing any work, and complete the Unit 5 UPA. This paper is also a study guide that you may use on the test! Please take a look at the slides from today to see how we wrapped up our conversation on changing or maintaining our mass (losing or gaining weight). We learned today that when you burn fat, the excess matter is BREATHED out of your mouth in the form of CO2!

NOTE: There is a FINAL DEADLINE for any missing work from this unit on Friday 4/26! Please see me for help if you need any extra support.

EXTRA RESOURCES:

Help! I'm confused about...

Wait... WHERE does excess fat go??

Reading Nutrition Labels

Macromolecules (proteins, carbohydrates, and fats)

Chemical Equations

This is a new skill! Don't feel worried if it takes time to understand.
