AltA 1.10 Immune system quiz

Instructions

Here is the recording link for this lesson. We went over all of the questions in this assignment during the class activity. #4 below involves you completing a virtual lab activity independently. If you have any trouble with the activity, follow the directions below to watch my video version. 

**Use this link to enter the virtual lab. **If you are unable to do the virtual lab activity for any reason you are welcome to watch my walkthrough video but it is definitely more fun to do yourself. 

Remember that the Disease Diary question at the end of the assignment is also worth a big part of your score. 

1

Take a screen shot of your Printable Summary Page. Don't worry if you missed a step or did something incorrectly. Mistakes happen during lab procedures!

Paste the image in the Free Response section or you can add it to the Show your work area.

3

What did you think of the virtual lab activity?
Do you think you would enjoy working in a clinical laboratory setting where you get to help in the diagnostic process?
Do you think it would be easy to mix up samples or do you have good focus and concentration when it comes to tasks like an ELISA?

4

Analysis:
Pretend that your results showed a bright yellow signal in all of the Negative Control wells.

How would you interpret the results of your experiment?
Would it indicate that something went right, or wrong during the procedure?
Explain what might have happened.
