BIOL.2E Plan and implement descriptive, comparative, and experimental investigations, including asking questions, formulating
testable hypotheses, and selecting equipment and technology.
BIOL.2F Collect and organize qualitative and quantitative data, and make measurements with accuracy and precision.
BIOL.2G Analyze, evaluate, make inferences, and predict trends from data.
Pre-Planning: Unpacking the Standards
Ⓡ BIOL.4C Compare the structure of viruses to cells, describe viral reproduction, and describe the role of viruses in causing
diseases, such as human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and influenza.
ELPS C.1.e Internalize new basic and academic language by using and reusing it in meaningful ways in speaking and
writing activities that build concept and language attainment.
ELPS C.4.d Use prereading supports such as graphic organizers, illustrations, and pretaught topic-related vocabulary and
other prereading activities to enhance comprehension of written text.
ELPS C.5.f Write using a variety of grade-appropriate sentence lengths, patterns, and connecting words to combine
phrases, clauses, and sentences in increasingly accurate ways as more English is acquired.

Sheath - covering
Bacteria – domain of unicellular prokaryotes that have cell walls containing peptidoglycan; corresponds to the kingdom Eubacteria
Antibiotic – group of drugs used to block the growth and reproduction of bacterial pathogens
Lytic infection – type of infection in which a virus enters a cell, makes copies of itself, and causes the cell to burst
Lysogenic infection – type of infection in which a virus embeds its DNA into the DNA of the host cell and is replicated along with
the host cell’s DNA
Retrovirus – RNA virus that contains RNA as its genetic information
Vaccine – preparation of weakened or killed pathogens used to produce immunity to a disease
Receptor – on or in a cell, a specific protein to whose shape fits that of a specific molecular messenger, such as a hormone
Bacteriophage – kind of virus that infects bacteria
Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) - any of a group of viruses that infect and destroy helper T cells causing the marked
reduction in their numbers that is diagnostic of AIDS
