NE.SC.8.1.Forces and Interactions
Forces and Interactions
SC.8.1.1. Gather, analyze, and communicate evidence of forces and interactions.
SC.8.1.1.C. Plan an investigation to provide evidence that the change in an object's motion depends on the sum of the forces on the object and the mass of the object.
SC.8.1.1.F. Conduct an investigation and evaluate the experimental design to provide evidence that fields exist between objects exerting forces on each other even though the objects are not in contact.
SC.8.10.5. Gather, analyze, and communicate evidence of natural selection and adaptations.
SC.8.10.5.C. Construct an explanation based on evidence that describes how genetic variations of traits in a population increase some individuals’ probability of surviving and reproducing in a specific environment.
SC.8.10.5.D. Use mathematical representations to support explanations of how natural selection may lead to increases and decreases of specific traits in populations over time.
SC.8.11.6. Gather, analyze, and communicate evidence of the interactions among bodies in space.
SC.8.11.6.A. Develop and use a model of the Earth-sun-moon system to describe the cyclic patterns of lunar phases, eclipses of the sun and moon, and seasons.
SC.8.14.7. Gather, analyze, and communicate evidence to explain Earth's history.
SC.8.14.7.A. Construct a scientific explanation based on evidence from rock strata for how the geologic time scale is used to organize Earth's 4.6-billion-year-old history.
SC.8.2.2. Gather, analyze, and communicate evidence of waves and electromagnetic radiation.
SC.8.2.2.A. Use mathematical representations to describe a simple model for waves that includes how the amplitude of a wave is related to the energy in a wave.
SC.8.2.2.C. Integrate qualitative scientific and technical information to support the claim that digitized signals are a more reliable way to encode and transmit information than analog signals.
NE.SC.8.4.Energy
Energy
SC.8.4.3. Gather, analyze, and communicate evidence of energy.
SC.8.4.3.A. Construct and interpret graphical displays of data to describe the relationships of kinetic energy to the mass of an object and to the speed of an object.
NE.SC.8.9.Heredity: Inheritance and Variation of Traits
Heredity: Inheritance and Variation of Traits
SC.8.9.4. Gather, analyze, and communicate evidence of the inheritance and variation of traits.
SC.8.9.4.A. Develop and use a model to describe why structural changes to genes (mutations) may result in harmful, beneficial, or neutral effects to structure and function of organisms.
SC.8.9.4.B. Gather and synthesize information about technologies that have changed the way humans influence inheritance of desired traits in organisms.
