Chapter 9

Standards:

HS LS 1-5: Use a model to illustrate how photosynthesis transforms light energy into stored chemical energy.

HS LS 1-6:  Construct and revise an explanation based on evidence for how carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen from sugar molecules may combine with other elements to for amino acids and/or other large carbon based molecules.

HS LS 2-5: Develop a model to illustrate the role of photosynthesis and cellular respiration in the cycling of carbon among  the biosphere, atmosphere, hydrosphere, and geosphere.

HS ESS 3-4:  Evaluate or refine a technological solution that reduces impacts of human activities on natural systems.
