Overview
• Today, we’ll be answering and analyzing real
AP biology multiple choice exam questions on
cell respiration (Ch. 9.1-9.5).
– I will walk us through questions 1-3.
– We will complete questions 4-8 as a class in
groups.
– You will complete questions 9-15 independently
using the strategies learned today.
