Enbrel is a new type of drug that treats a variety of diseases. For EXTRA CREDIT, research this drug. Write a paragraph explaining what diseases it treats and how it works. You must explain what the cause is of these diseases. Knowing what you do about cell processes and about the integumentary system, you should be able to explain this in your own words. Do not copy and paste the information.
You should submit the paragraph to my guestbook. Make sure you put your real name (not your screen name) in the guestbook and mark it "private" so no one else can read it. This is due before you come to class on Friday 9-24.

Another good bone quiz, although it's short
This quiz is too easy for you and deals with articulations as well as the skeletal system. Hold the mouse over the question marks to find the answers. Your test will be a bit harder than this.
