Science Inquiry and Application

During the years of grades 9 through 12, all students must use the following scientific processes with appropriate laboratory safety techniques to construct their knowledge and understanding in all science content areas:

• Identify questions and concepts that guide scientific investigations;

• Design and conduct scientific investigations;

• Use technology and mathematics to improve investigations and communications;

• Formulate and revise explanations and models using logic and evidence (critical thinking);

• Recognize and analyze explanations and models; and

• Communicate and support a scientific argument.

Cell function

• Cellular processes

o Characteristics of life regulated by cellular processes o Photosynthesis, chemosynthesis, cellular respiration o Cell division and differentiation

Heredity

• Cellular genetics

• Structure and function of DNA in cells

• Genetic mechanisms and inheritance

• Mutations
