California Content Standard(s) Covered: LIFE SCIENCES

2.  Plants and animals have structures for respiration, digestion, waste disposal, and transport of materials. As a basis for understanding this concept:

a.  Students know many multicellular organisms have specialized structures to support the transport of materials.

e.  Students know how sugar, water, and minerals are transported in a vascular plant.

f.  Students know plants use carbon dioxide and energy from sunlight to build molecules of sugar and release oxygen.

g.  Students know plant and animal cells break down sugar to obtain energy, a process resulting in carbon dioxide, and water (respiration).

5B Meeting Days: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday
