7.4.1.1 - Tissues, organs and organ systems are composed of cells and function to serve the needs of all cells for food, air and waste removal.
Benchmarks1. Recognize that all cells do not look alike and that specialized cells in multi-cellular organisms are organized into tissues and organs that perform specialized functions.
2. Describe how the organs in the respiratory, circulatory, digestive, nervous, skin and urinary systems interact to serve the needs of vertebrate organisms.

Cells do not look alike and specialized cells in multi-cellular organisms form tissues and organs.
Organs interact to serve the needs of the creature. Essential QuestionsWhy is the fact that not all cells look the same significant?
How do cells, tissues, and organs relate to one another? What does form = function mean to you? How go organ system in a vertebrate interact? Prioritize organ systems according to how important you think they are to the function of the organism. What does the ____________ system do? |
standard7.4.1.2 - All living organisms are composed of one or more cells which carry on the many functions needed to sustain life.
benchmarks1. Recognize that cells carry out life functions, and that these functions are carried out in a similar way in all organisms, including animals, plants, fungi, bacteria and protists.
2. Recognize that cells repeatedly divide to make more cells for growth and repair.
3. Use the presence of the cell wall and chloroplasts to distinguish between plant and animal cells.

big ideasCells carry out functions in a similar way in all organisms.
Cells repeatedly divide for growth and repair Animal and plant cells are different because of the presence of chloroplasts and cell walls. essential questionsDescribe life functions.
Do all organisms have the same life functions going on inside them? Explain. Explain the differences between the 5 kingdoms of creatures. Paraphase why cells divide. Draw how cells divide. Inside you, explain what your skin cells are doing on a daily basis. Compare and contrast animal and plant cells. Why is a chloroplast important? Why would animal and plant cells need to be different? |

V0cabulary
Cell Division: is the process by which a parent cell divides into two or more daughter cells.
Cell Membrane: thin flexible barrier that surrounds all cells; regulates what enters and leaves the cell. Cell Theory: fundamental concept of biology that states that all living things are composed of cells, that cells are the basic units of structure and function in living things, and that new cells are produced from existing cells. Cell Wall: strong supporting layer around the cell membrane in some cells Cell: basic unit of all forms of life. Chloroplast: organelle found in cells of plants and some other organisms that captures the energy from sunlight and converts it into chemical energy. Chromosomes: threadlike structures within the nucleus that contains genetic information that is passed from one generation to the next. Cytoplasm: fluid portion of the cell outside the nucleus. Diffusion:process by which particles tend to move from an area where they are more concentrated to an area where they are less concentrated Endoplasmic Reticulum: internal membrane system found in eukaryotic cells; place where lipid components of the cell membrane are assembled. |
Mitochondrion: rod shaped structure that is referred to as the powerhouse of a cell
Mitosis: part of eukaryotic cell division during which the cell nucleus divides Nucleus: the center of an an atom which contains the protons and neutrons; in cells, structure that contains the cell's genetic material. Organ: group of tissues that work together to perform closely related functions. Organelle: tiny cell structure. Organ system: group of organs that work together to perform a specific function. Organism: an individual made up of organ systems.osmosis diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane Respiration: process by which living organisms take in oxygen and use it to produce energy. Ribosome: cell organelle consisting of RNA and protein found throughout the cytoplasm in a cell; the site of protein synthesis Tissue: group of similar cells that perform a particular function Vacuole: cell organelle that stores materials such as water, salts, proteins, and other materials. |
