GNB Voc-Tech High School Fall 2006-Spring 2007 i. Biology I Outline Introduction to Biology: Guiding Principle IV 1. Chapter 1: Biology & You a. Identify the topics studied in biology b. Recognize some possible benefits from studying biology c. Summarize the characteristics of living things The Scientific Method: Guiding Principle V 1. Chapter 1: Biology & You a. Discuss problem solving methods b. Determine the steps used to follow the scientific method c. Demonstrate practical use of the scientific method by developing an experimental design d. Discuss the importance of lab safety and related issues 2. Possible Lab Activities: a. Paper Towel Lab b. Metric Lab c. Graphing Lab Chemistry of Life: 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 1. Chapter 2: Chemistry of Life a. Differentiate between atoms and elements. b. Distinguish between covalent bonds, hydrogen bonds, and ionic bonds. c. Relate water’s polarity to its ability to dissolve substances and to the formation of acids and bases d. Explain the significance of carbon in organic molecules e. Summarize the characteristics of organic compounds and recognize the six most common elements (C, N, H, O, P, and S). f. Compare the chemical structure and function of carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and, nucleic acids. g. Relate the role of energy to the completion of chemical reactions h. Describe the function of enzymes in specific chemical reactions 2. Possible Lab Activities: a. pH Lab b. Enzyme Lab c. Organic Compound Lab Biology I Outline Pg. 1 GNB Voc-Tech High School Fall 2006-Spring 2007 i. The Cell: 2.1, 2.2, 2.3 1. Chapter 3: Cell Structure a. Understand the function and operation of a compound light microscope b. Identify the main ideas of the cell theory c. Explain the characteristics of prokaryotic cells d. Understand the function of the structures found in a eukaryotic cell e. Compare and contrast the general structure and degrees of complexity of eukaryotic cells and prokaryotic cells f. Compare and contrast the structures of plant and animal cells 2. Possible Lab Activities: a. Plant vs. Animal Cell Homeostasis and the Plasma Membrane: 2.1 1. Chapter 3: Cell Structure and Chapter 4: Cells and Their Environment a. Describe the structure and function of a cell membrane b. Relate concentration gradients, diffusion, and equilibrium c. Understand the processes of diffusion and osmosis d. Explain the difference between passive and active transport e. Understand the role of the plasma membrane (cell membrane) in maintaining homeostasis 2. Possible Lab Activities: a. Osmosis Lab b. Plasmolysis Lab Energy in a Cell: 2.4, 2.5 1. Chapter 5: Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration a. Explain why organisms need a supply of energy b. Understand that the organic compounds produced by plants are the primary source of energy and nutrients for most living things c. Explain how energy is stored in ATP and released from ATP d. Identify the reactants, products, and basic purposes of photosynthesis, and cellular respiration e. Summarize how the products and reactants of photosynthesis and respiration are interrelated 2. Possible Lab Activities: a. Photosynthesis/Respiration Lab Biology I Outline Pg. 2 GNB Voc-Tech High School Fall 2006-Spring 2007 i. Anatomy & Physiology: 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.7, 4.8 1. Unit 9: Exploring Human Biology a. Explain generally how the digestive system converts macromolecules from food into smaller molecules that can be used by cells for energy and for repair and growth b. Explain how the circulatory system transports nutrients and oxygen to cell and removes cell wastes c. Describe how the kidneys and the liver are closely associated with the circulatory system as they perform the excretory function of removing waste from the blood d. Recognize that kidneys remove nitrogenous wastes, and the liver removes many toxic compounds from blood e. Explain how the respiratory system provides exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide f. Explain how the nervous system mediates communication between different parts of the body and the body’s interactions with the environment g. Identify the basic unit of the nervous system, the neuron, and explain generally how it works h. Explain how the muscular/skeletal system works with other systems to support and allow movement i. Recognize that bones produce both red and white blood cells j. Recognize that communication between cells is required for coordination of body functions. The nerves communicate with electrochemical signals, hormones circulate through the blood, and some cells produce signals to communicate only with nearby cells k. Recognize that the body’s systems interact to maintain homeostasis l. Describe the basic function of a physiological feedback loop 2. Possible Lab Activities: a. TBA Biology I Outline Pg. 3
