Understandings:
Organisms use energy within a system to grow, reproduce, and maintain
balance.
Organisms interact with and are dependent on living and nonliving
components of the environment.
Changes in matter involve the rearrangement and or reorganization of
atoms.
Chemical reactions involve the gain or loss of energy to form a new
substance and the reaction time is influenced by the rate of collision of the
particles.
Models are used to represent aspects of the natural world and have
limitations of size, scale and properties.
Critical Vocabulary:
Organic compound
Carbohydrate
Monosaccharide
Fatty Acid
Polysaccharide
Lipid
Nucleic acid
Nucleotide
Protein
Biomolecule
Calorie
