Outcomes for Science, Technology and Society (STS) and Knowledge
Students will: 1. Investigate and interpret diversity among species and within species, and describe how diversity contributes to species survival 2. Investigate the nature of reproductive processes and their role in transmitting species characteristics 3. Describe, in general terms, the role of genetic materials in the continuity and variation of species characteristics; and investigate and interpret related technologies 4. Identify impacts of human action on species survival and variation within species, and analyze related issues for personal and public decision making |

|
|
Section 2: As species reproduce, characteristics are passed from parents to offspring
Investigate the nature of reproductive processes and their role in transmitting species characteristics
|
|
|

Describe, in general terms, the role of genetic materials in the continuity and variation of species characteristics; and investigate and interpret related technologies
|
|
Section 4: Human activity affects biological diversity
Identify impacts of human action on species survival and variation within species, and analyze related issues for personal and public decision making
Seed Banks - Ted Talk Check out this 6 minute talk about why we our storing the world's seeds and how we can keep them safe for up to 1000 years. ---> |
