Unit 7 Content Expectations
B5.2a Describe species as reproductively distinct groups of organisms that can be
classified based on morphological, behavioral, and molecular structures.
B2.4A Explain that living things can be classified based on structural, embryological,
and molecular (relatedness of DNA sequence) evidence.
B5.2b Explain that the degree of kinship between organisms or species can be
estimated from similarity of their DNA and protein sequences.
B5.1f Explain, using examples, how the fossil record, comparative anatomy, and
other evidence supports the theory of evolution.
B2.4d Analyze the relationships among organisms based on their shared physical,
biochemical, genetic, and cellular characteristics and functional processes.
B5.1c Summarize the relationships between present-day organisms and those
that inhabited the Earth in the past (e.g., use fossil record, embryonic stages,
homologous structures, chemical basis).
B5.3e Explain how changes at the gene level are the foundation for changes in
populations and eventually the formation of a new species.
B5.2c Trace the relationship between environmental changes and changes in the
gene pool, such as genetic drift and isolation of subpopulations.
B5.3C Give examples of ways in which genetic variation and environmental factors
are causes of evolution and the diversity of organisms.
B5.3B Describe the role of geographic isolation in speciation.
B5.1A Summarize the major concepts of natural selection (differential survival
and reproduction of chance inherited variants, depending on environmental
conditions).
B5.1B Describe how natural selection provides a mechanism for evolution.
B5.1d Explain how a new species or variety originates through the evolutionary
process of natural selection
B5.1e Explain how natural selection leads to organisms that are well-suited for the
environment (differential survival and reproduction of chance inherited variants,
depending upon environmental conditions).
B2.4B Describe how various organisms have developed different specializations to
accomplish a particular function and yet the end result is the same (e.g., excreting
nitrogenous wastes in animals, obtaining oxygen for respiration).
B2.4C Explain how different organisms accomplish the same result using
different structural specializations (gills vs. lungs vs. membranes).
B5.3A Explain how natural selection acts on individuals, but it is populations
that evolve. Relate genetic mutations and genetic variety produced by sexual
reproduction to diversity within a given population.
B5.3d Explain how evolution through natural selection can result in changes in
biodiversity.

B5.1g Illustrate how genetic variation is preserved or eliminated from a population
through natural selection (evolution) resulting in biodiversity.
B3.4B Recognize and describe that a great diversity of species increases the
chance that at least some living organisms will survive in the face of cataclysmic
changes in the environment.
B5.3f Demonstrate and explain how biotechnology can improve a population and
species.
