Welcome Life Science- Biology. Throughout the year, you will learn to explain, both accurately and with appropriate depth, the most important ideas about our living environment. You will also engage in 1200 minutes of scientific inquiry through various lab investigations.
Topics we will be learning:
- Structure and Function
HS-LS1-1: Genes, Proteins, and Tissues
HS-LS1-2: Interacting Body Systems
HS-LS1-3: Feedback Mechanisms and Homeostasis
- Matter and Energy in Organisms and Ecosystems
HS-LS1-5: Photosynthesis and Energy Transformation
HS-LS1-6: Formation of Carbon-Based Molecules
HS-LS1-7: Cellular Respiration and Energy Transfer
HS-LS2-3: Aerobic and Anaerobic Cycling of Matter
HS-LS2-4: Biomass and Trophic Levels
HS-LS2-5: Cycling of Carbon in Ecosystems
- Interdependent Relationships in Ecosystems
HS-LS2-1: Carrying Capacity of Ecosystems
HS-LS2-2: Biodiversity and Populations in Ecosystems
HS-LS2-6: Ecosystem Dynamics, Functioning, and Resilience
HS-LS2-7: Human Impact Reduction Solution
HS-LS2-8: Social Interactions and Group Behavior
- Inheritance and Variation in Traits
HS-LS1-4: Cellular Division and Differentiation
HS-LS1-8: Human Reproduction
HS-LS3-1: Chromosomal Inheritance
