Unit+3+Energy

= Unit 3: Energy : Respiration/ Photosynthesis =


 * Objectives: **


 * // Students will know… //**


 * All living systems require constant input of energy.
 * Organisms capture, use and store energy in biological processes such as growth, reproduction and maintaining homeostatic processes.
 * Energy capturing processes include photosynthesis, respiration and fermentation.
 * Eukaryotic cells maintain internal membranes that partition the cell into specialized regions.
 * Positive feedback mechanisms amplify responses in biological organisms.
 * Organisms use negative feedback mechanisms to maintain their internal environments and respond to external environmental changes.
 * Organisms respond constantly to changes in their external environment.


 * // Students will be able to… //**


 * Explain based on empirical data that all organisms require constant energy input to maintain organization, grow and reproduce.
 * Justify a claim that energy is required for living systems to maintain organization, but that multiple strategies exist in different living systems.
 * Predict how changes in energy availability can affect organisms, populations and ecosystems.
 * Use representations of the manner in which organisms utilize energy to pose scientific questions about mechanisms and structural features that allow organisms to capture, store and use energy.
 * Construct explanations of the mechanisms and structural features that allow organisms to capture, store or use free energy.
 * Justify the selection of data relevant to the question of what types of molecules will an animal, plant or bacterium take up as necessary building blocks and excrete as waste products.
 * Graphically represent or quantitatively model relationships that exist when organisms exchange molecules with the environment and build new molecules to maintain organization..
 * Explain how internal membranes and cell organelles contribute to cell functions.
 * Use representations and models to describe how eukaryotic cells use internal membranes that partition the cell into specialized regions.
