Content of Science Strandard II
Structure/Function Cells
The learner will be able to understand the characteristics, structures, and functions of cells.
Strand Scope Source
Structure and Function Master NM: State Standards: Standard II Benchmark(a) III
  
Amino Acids
The learner will be able to know that cells are made of proteins composed of combinations of amino acids.
Strand Scope Source
Structure and Function Master NM: State Standards: Standard II Benchmark(a) III 9.3.1
  
Specialized Structures
The learner will be able to know that specialized structures inside cells in most organisms carry out different functions, including: parts of a cell and their functions (e.g., nucleus, chromosomes, plasma, and mitochondria) storage of genetic material in DNA similarities and differences between plant and animal cells prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell .
Strand Scope Source
Structure and Function Master NM: State Standards: Standard II Benchmark(a) III 9.3.2
  
Cellular Processes
The learner will be able to describe the mechanisms for cellular processes (e.g., energy production and storage, transport of molecules, waste disposal, synthesis of new molecules).
Strand Scope Source
Structure and Function Master NM: State Standards: Standard II Benchmark(a) III 9.3.3
  
Cell Membrane
The learner will be able to know how the cell membrane controls which ions and molecules enter and leave the cell based on membrane permeability and transport (i.e., osmosis, diffusion, active transport, passive transport).
Strand Scope Source
Structure and Function Master NM: State Standards: Standard II Benchmark(a) III 9.3.4
  
Cells Differentiate
The learner will be able to explain how cells differentiate and specialize during the growth of an organism, including: differentiation, regulated through the selected expression of different genes specialized cells, response to stimuli (e.g., nerve cells, sense organs) .
Strand Scope Source
Structure and Function Master NM: State Standards: Standard II Benchmark(a) III 9.3.5
  
DNA/Protein Building
The learner will be able to know that DNA directs protein building (e.g., role of RNA).
Strand Scope Source
Structure and Function Master NM: State Standards: Standard II Benchmark(a) III 9.3.6
  
Properties/Structure Living Things
The learner will be able to understand the properties, structures, and processes of living things and the interdependence of living things and their environments.
Strand Scope Source
Life Science Master NM: State Standards: Standard II
  
Genetic Basis for Inheritance
The learner will be able to understand the genetic basis for inheritance and the basic concepts of biological evolution.
Strand Scope Source
Genetics Master NM: State Standards: Standard II Benchmark(a) II
  
Genetic Information
The learner will be able to dNA carries all genetic information in the units of heredity called genes, including: Know how: the structure of DNA (e.g., subunits A, G, C, T) information-preserving replication of DNA alteration of genes by inserting, deleting, or substituting parts of DNA .
Strand Scope Source
Genetics Master NM: State Standards: Standard II Benchmark(a) II 9.2.1
  
Describe Inheritable Traits
The learner will be able to use appropriate vocabulary to describe inheritable traits (i.e., genotype, phenotype).
Strand Scope Source
Genetics Master NM: State Standards: Standard II Benchmark(a) II 9.2.2
  
Segregation/Independent Assortment
The learner will be able to explain the concepts of segregation, independent assortment, and dominant/recessive alleles.
Strand Scope Source
Genetics Master NM: State Standards: Standard II Benchmark(a) II 9.2.3
  
traits Can Not Inherit
The learner will be able to identify traits that can and cannot be inherited.
Strand Scope Source
Genetics Master NM: State Standards: Standard II Benchmark(a) II 9.2.4
  
Genetic Variability
The learner will be able to know how genetic variability results from the recombination and mutation of genes, including: sorting and recombination of genes in sexual reproduction result in a change in DNA that is passed on to offspring radiation or chemical substances can cause mutations in cells, resulting in a permanent change in DNA .
Strand Scope Source
Genetics Master NM: State Standards: Standard II Benchmark(a) II 9.2.5
  
Sexual/Asexual Reproduction
The learner will be able to understand the principles of sexual and asexual reproduction, including meiosis and mitosis.
Strand Scope Source
Genetics Master NM: State Standards: Standard II Benchmark(a) II 9.2.6
  
Chromosomes X and Y
The learner will be able to know that most cells in the human body contain 23 pairs of chromosomes including one pair that determines sex, and that human females have two X chromosomes and human males have an X and a Y chromosome .
Strand Scope Source
Genetics Master NM: State Standards: Standard II Benchmark(a) II 9.2.7
  
Evolution of Earth
The learner will be able to describe the characteristics and the evolution of Earth in terms of the geosphere, the hydrosphere, the atmosphere, and the biosphere.
Strand Scope Source
Characteristics and Evolution of Earth Master NM: State Standards: Standard III Benchmark(a) II 9.2.1
  
Earth 4 Billion Years
The learner will be able to recognize that radiometric data indicate that Earth is at least 4 billion years old and that Earth has changed during that period.
Strand Scope Source
Characteristics and Evolution of Earth Master NM: State Standards: Standard III Benchmark(a) II 9.2.2
  
Earth's Past
The learner will be able to understand the changes in Earth's past and the investigative methods used to determine geologic time, including: rock sequences, relative dating, fossil correlation, and radiometric dating geologic time scales, historic changes in life forms, and the evidence for absolute ages (e.g., radiometric methods, tree rings, paleomagnetism) .
Strand Scope Source
Characteristics and Evolution of Earth Master NM: State Standards: Standard III Benchmark(a) II 9.2.4
  
Similarities Among Species
