1 Pearson Biology Foundations Series Miller & Levine 2010 To the Next Generation Science Standards Life Science Standards DRAFT, MAY 2012

2 Dear Educator, As we embark upon a new and exciting science journey, Pearson is committed to offering its complete support as classrooms transition to the new Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). Ready-to-use solutions for today and a forward-thinking plan for tomorrow connect teacher education and development, curriculum content and instruction, assessment, and information and school design and improvement. We ll be here every step of the way to provide the easiest possible transition to the NGSS with a coherent, phased approach to implementation. Pearson has long-standing relationships with contributors and authors who have been involved with the development and review of the Next Generation Science Frameworks and subsequent Next Generation Science Standards. As such, the spirit and pedagogical approach of the NGSS initiative is embedded in all of our programs, such as Miller & Levine Biology. The planning and development of Pearson s Miller & Levine Biology was informed by the same foundational research as the NGSS Framework. Specifically, our development teams used Project 2061, the National Science Education Standards (1996) developed by the National Research Council, as well as the Science Anchors Project 2009 developed by the National Science Teachers Association to inform the development of this program. As a result, students make connections throughout the program to concepts that cross disciplines, practice science and engineering skills, and build on their foundational knowledge of key science ideas. Authors Ken Miller and Joe Levine have created a bold, comprehensive on-level program to inspire students with trusted and up-to-date biology content. The authors unique storytelling style engages students in biology, with a greater focus on written and visual analogies. Study Workbook A and Laboratory Manual A offer leveled activities for students of varying abilities. Teachers can choose to differentiate activities within a classroom or select from various labs to choose one that best fits the whole class profile. Miller & Levine Biology: Foundations Series, Study Workbook B, and Laboratory Manual B: Reading Foundations is the option for below-level students to receive the mastery key biology concepts, with embedded reading support.

LS1.C: Organization for Matter and Energy Flow in Organisms As matter and energy flow through different organizational levels of living systems, chemical elements are recombined in different ways to form different products. Energy and Matter The total amount of energy and matter in closed systems is conserved. Changes of energy and matter in a system can be described in terms of energy and matter flows into, out of, and within that system. Energy cannot be created or destroyed it only moves between one place and another place, between objects and/or fields, or between systems. Energy drives the cycling of matter within and between systems. In nuclear processes, atoms are not conserved, but the total number of protons plus neutrons is conserved. 213, Overview of Cellular Respiration; 214, The Stages of Cellular Respiration; 215, Figure, Opposite Processes; 217, Build Connections: Glycolysis; 219, Build Connections: The Krebs Cycle; 221, Build Connections: The Electron Transport Chain and ATP Synthesis; 222, Figured, Energy Totals 215, Use Visuals; 217, Hands-On Learning; 218, Use Graphic Organizers; 220, Active Reading, Draw a 212, Chemical Energy and Food; 213, Overview of Cellular Respiration; , Glycolysis; , The Krebs Cycle; 220, Electron Transport and ATP Synthesis, 222 The Totals 219, Active Reading, Science Support As a result of these chemical reactions, energy is transferred from one system of interacting molecules to another.
