Learners calculate the probability of genotypic inheritance and phenotypic expression using mono- and dihybrid crosses.

Learners analyze and evaluate the effects of other evolutionary mechanisms.

Learners compare changes in matter that take place during energy conversion processes such as photosynthesis and cellular respiration.

Learners analyze food chains, webs, and pyramids to determine how energy flows and matter cycles through ecosystems.

Learners explore and describe how succession affects biodiversity by creating an island ecosystem in an interactive game.

The focus of this resource is cell homeostasis and, more specifically, osmosis. Students investigate the concept through a virtual lab, recording and analyzing data, creating sketches to represent vocabulary, and discovering the role of aquaporins in water transport through the cell membrane.

Given examples, descriptions, and illustrations, students will be able to describe the role of DNA, RNA, and environmental factors in cell differentiation.

Given descriptions or illustrations, students will identify where the reaction of photosynthesis take place and the process and results of photosynthesis.

Given descriptions or illustrations, students will identify where the reaction of respiration take place and the process and results of respiration.

Given investigation scenarios, students will determine the equipment that best fits the procedure.

Given descriptions or illustrations, students will identify where fermentation occurs and the results of fermentation.

Given illustrations or descriptions, students will identify disruptions of the cell cycle that lead to diseases such as cancer.

Given illustrations, students will distinguish between viral structure and cellular structure.

Given descriptions and illustrations students will identify and describe the methods of viral reproduction.

Given scenarios, illustrations, or descriptions, students will identify major diseases caused by viruses, how viruses cause these diseases, and how the body responds to infection.

Given illustrations or partial DNA sequences, students will identify changes in DNA and the significance of these changes.

Given examples, students will recognize the importance of taxonomy to the scientific community.

Given illustrations or descriptions, students will determine the classification of organisms into domains and kingdoms.

Given illustrations or scenarios, the student will identify an enzyme and the outcome of its action.
