TN.7.ESS.Earth and Space Sciences (ESS)
Earth and Space Sciences (ESS)
7.ESS3. Earth and Human Activity
7.ESS3.1. Graphically represent the composition of the atmosphere as a mixture of gases and discuss the potential for atmospheric change.
7.LS1. From Molecules to Organisms: Structures and Processes
7.LS1.1. Develop and construct models that identify and explain the structure and function of major cell organelles as they contribute to the life activities of the cell and organism.
7.LS1.5. Explain that the body is a system comprised of subsystems that maintain equilibrium and support life through digestion, respiration, excretion, circulation, sensation (nervous and integumentary), and locomotion (musculoskeletal).
7.LS1.6. Develop an argument based on empirical evidence and scientific reasoning to explain how behavioral and structural adaptations in animals and plants affect the probability of survival and reproductive success.
7.LS1.7. Evaluate and communicate evidence that compares and contrasts the advantages and disadvantages of sexual and asexual reproduction.
7.LS1.8. Construct an explanation demonstrating that the function of mitosis for multicellular organisms is for growth and repair through the production of genetically identical daughter cells.
7.LS1.9. Construct a scientific explanation based on compiled evidence for the processes of photosynthesis, cellular respiration, and anaerobic respiration in the cycling of matter and flow of energy into and out of organisms.
7.LS2. Ecosystems: Interactions, Energy, and Dynamics
7.LS2.1. Develop a model to depict the cycling of matter, including carbon and oxygen, including the flow of energy among biotic and abiotic parts of an ecosystem.
7.LS3. Heredity: Inheritance and Variation of Traits
7.LS3.1. Hypothesize that the impact of structural changes to genes (i.e., mutations) located on chromosomes may result in harmful, beneficial, or neutral effects to the structure and function of the organism.
7.LS3.3. Predict the probability of individual dominant and recessive alleles to be transmitted from each parent to offspring during sexual reproduction and represent the phenotypic and genotypic patterns using ratios.
7.PS1.4. Analyze and interpret chemical reactions to determine if the total number of atoms in the reactants and products support the Law of Conservation of Mass.
7.PS1.5. Use the periodic table as a model to analyze and interpret evidence relating to physical and chemical properties to identify a sample of matter.
