7.L1U1.10

In this unit, students compare the science phenomena of bacterial, plant, and animal cells, figuring out similarities among them all as well as differences. Students then conduct an experiment into how yeast cells extract energy from food molecules. This page highlights components of this lesson. 

In this unit, students explore science phenomena related to life forms that live on Earth, analyzing the cellular structures that make up complex organisms and how different groups of cells work together to keep the organism functioning properly. In this lesson, students test the effect of sucrose concentration on the heart rate of daphnia, observing how different organ systems work together. This page provides a high-level extract of this lesson.

In this unit, students focus on the relationship between an organism’s cellular structure and the ability of the organism to access energy to carry out essential life functions. Students begin by examining prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells under the microscope and then compare organelles in plant and animal cells in this lesson. This page is a high-level extract of this lesson.

In this unit, students explore the organisms that live on Earth’s surface, analyzing how living things are made of cells, which have certain requirements for survival, including food, water, and energy. In this lesson, students figure out the phenomena of energy transfer in living systems with a focus on how energy and matter flow through organisms. This page showcases excerpts from components of this lesson.

In this unit, students analyze phenomena of inheritance in how living things pass along their genes to offspring. Students evaluate the role of DNA and chromosomes in heredity in this lesson. This page is a high-level extract of this lesson.

In this unit, students discover how life reproduces at the cellular level, analyzing the science phenomena of how genetic information is stored in chromosomes. In this lesson, students observe mitosis in plants and animals. This page shows key components of this lesson.

IIn this unit, students analyze the science phenomena of inheritance, how living things pass along their genes to offspring. Students evaluate the role of DNA and chromosomes in heredity, and compare the two forms of cell division: the phenomena mitosis and phenomena meiosis. This page shows key components of this lesson on reproduction.

In this unit, students focus on the structure and function of specialized cells, tissues, and organs in the phenomena of complex multicellular organisms, and they explore how the body processes information gathered by sensory receptors. In this lesson, they develop a model for a human organ system and then observe different human cells to understand how structure influences function. This page highlights each part of this lesson.
