Instructions: For each section list the vocabulary words and make up a CQC sentence that uses each word and, at the same time, defines it. Underline the words being defined. (Glossary definitions will not receive full credit.)
Example: Aids Virus
Defining sentence The Aids Virus is a spherical virus studded with projections. These projections allow the virus to attach to a human cell and transmit genetic material into the cell.
Research Question Instructions Complete the following Data Tables, Exercises and Questions on a separate sheet of paper. Quality answers embody the question in the answer in a complete, informative sentence(s). Quality answers will receive the most credit. Use lined paper and ink or word processor.
