BI30-OL1
Investigate cell structure and processes, including energy transfer and transport of materials, in unicellular and multicellular organisms which are representative of each kingdom.

SI, TPS

Indicators for this outcome
(a) Pose questions regarding the diverse ways in which organisms perform life's processes such as locomotion, reproduction, acquiring energy and responding to stimuli. (S)
(b) Analyze the processes (e.g., chemosynthesis, photosynthesis and cellular respiration) through which organisms from each kingdom synthesize energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). (K)
(c) Describe how biologically important molecules work together to form complex structures (e.g., cell membranes, ribosomes and deoxyribonucleic acid [DNA]). (K)
(d) Compare the structure and composition (e.g., chitin, cellulose and peptidoglycan) of cell walls in a variety of organisms. (K)
(e) Design and carry out a plan to gather evidence of how unicellular organisms, such as yeast or paramecia, exhibit characteristics of living things. (STSE, A, S, K)
(f) Research how structural and biochemical adaptations enable some archaeans (e.g., halophiles, thermophiles and methanogens) to live in extreme environments. (S, K)
(g) Observe and compare structures (e.g., pseudopods, cilia and flagella) and processes that enable locomotion in unicellular organisms such as amoeba, paramecium, dinoflagellates and euglena. (K, S)
(h) Research how advances in tools (e.g., light microscopes, transmission electron microscopes and scanning electron microscopes) and techniques (e.g., culturing cells and cell fractionation) have enabled scientists to develop deeper understandings of cell structure and processes. (K, STSE)
(i) Design, construct and evaluate the function of a model to demonstrate passive and active transport of materials at the interface of the cell membrane. (A, STSE, S)
(j) Demonstrate how osmotic pressure helps maintain homeostasis in cells. (K, S)
