1 Exemplar Lesson 01: Taxonomy Exemplar Lesson 02: Kingdoms of Living Organisms State Resources: RATIONALE: This unit bundles student expectations that address taxonomy. Prior to this unit, in Grade 6, students learned that all organisms can be classified into domains and kingdoms based on their characteristics. Prior to this unit, in Biology, students developed a foundation in the cellular nature of life and how life on Earth has changed through the process of evolution. During this unit, students will learn how taxonomy categorizes all of Earth s life forms. They will learn how to use the standardized taxonomic that scientists use to categorize organisms based on similarities and differences shared among groups. After this unit, students will use this basic understanding of the different kingdoms as a foundation when they study bacteria, plants, and body systems of animals in subsequent units. STAAR Note: Student Expectations B.4A, B.8A, and B.8C are all Supporting Standards, and B.8B is a Readiness Standard for the STAAR Biology Assessment. This is the last time that B.8A is taught before the test. According to the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), in the Benchmarks for Science Literacy (Project 2061), by the end of 12th grade, students should know that : The degree of relatedness between organisms or species can be estimated from the similarity of their DNA sequences, which often closely match their classification based on anatomical similarities. 5A/H2* A classification system is a framework created by scientists for describing the vast diversity of organisms, indicating the degree of relatedness between organisms, and framing research questions. 5A/H5** American Association for the Advancement of Science. (1993). Benchmarks on-line. Retrieved December 21, 2009, from MISCONCEPTIONS/UNDERDEVELOPED CONCEPTS: MISCONCEPTIONS: Students may think that animals and plants are the only living organisms. PERFORMANCE INDICATORS CONCEPTS KEY UNDERSTANDINGS FOR LEARNERS Use a dichotomous key to classify organisms from each kingdom based on similarities and differences.

Use models to make predictions. Select appropriate equipment and technology. Evaluate the quality and accuracy of information from research sources, such as search engines, databases, and other online tools. STAAR Notes: The process skills will be incorporated into at least 40% of the test questions and will be identified along with content standards. Comparative investigations (Texas Education Agency. ( ). Laboratory and Field Investigations FAQ, August Retrieved from Comparative investigations involve collecting data on different organisms/objects/ features/events, or collecting data under different conditions (e.g., time of year, air temperature, location) to make a comparison. The hypothesis identifies one independent (manipulated) variable and one dependent (responding) variable. A fair test* can be designed to measure variables so that the relationship between them is determined. * A fair test is conducted by making sure that only one factor (variable) is changed at a time, while keeping all other conditions the same. I. Nature of Science A3 Formulate appropriate questions to test understanding of natural phenomena. 2012, TESCCC 05/10/12 page 2 of 9

4 B.4 Science concepts. The student knows that cells are the basic structures of all living things with specialized parts that perform specific functions, and that viruses are different from cells. The student is expected to: B.4A Compare and contrast prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Supporting Standard IV. Nature of Science: Scientific Ways of Learning and Thinking E1 Use several modes of expression to describe or characterize natural patterns and phenomena. These modes of expression include narrative, numerical, graphical, pictorial, symbolic, and kinesthetic. Compare, Contrast PROKARYOTIC AND EUKARYOTIC CELLS In this unit, students will apply knowledge regarding prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, addressed in the previous unit on cells. An understanding of the differences in characteristics of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells is key in differentiating between kingdoms and classifying organisms. Identify structures and processes common to both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Structures Cell wall Cell membrane Ribosomes Genetic material Cytoplasm Flagella or cilia Processes Photosynthesis Respiration Transcription Translation Homeostasis Cell division Recognize how the above processes are carried out differently between prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells. Recognize structures and processes unique to eukaryotic cells. Membrane-bound organelles Nucleus (including nuclear membrane and nucleolus) Chloroplast Golgi apparatus Lysosome Mitochondrion Plastid Rough endoplasmic reticulum Smooth endoplasmic reticulum 2012, TESCCC 05/10/12 page 4 of 9
5 Vacuole Vesicle Meiosis STAAR Note: Students are introduced to prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells in Grade 6 (6.12B) and to cell organelles in Grade 7 (7.12D). Organelles included in middle school content include the cell membrane, cell wall, nucleus, cytoplasm, mitochondrion, chloroplast and vacuole Note: By the end of the 12th grade, students should know that: Every cell is covered by a membrane that controls what can enter and leave the cell. 5C/H1a In all but quite primitive cells, a complex network of proteins provides organization and shape and, for animal cells, movement. 5C/H1b Within the cells are specialized parts for the transport of materials, energy capture and release, protein building, waste disposal, passing information, and even movement. 5C/H2a In addition to the basic cellular functions common to all cells, most cells in multicellular organisms perform some special functions that others do not. 5C/H2b The work of the cell is carried out by the many different types of molecules it assembles, mostly proteins. Protein molecules are long, usually folded chains made from 20 different kinds of amino acid molecules. The function of each protein molecule depends on its specific sequence of amino acids and its shape. The shape of the chain is a consequence of attractions between its parts. 5C/H3 B.8 Science concepts. The student knows that taxonomy is a branching classification based on the shared characteristics of organisms and can change as new discoveries are made. The student is expected to: B.8A Define taxonomy and recognize the importance of a standardized taxonomic system to the scientific community. Supporting Standard VI.
