Lesson 1.3 Learning Targets

Standards:

9.4.1.1 Organisms use the interaction of cellular processes as well as tissues and organ systems to maintain homeostasis.

9.4.1.2 Cells and cell structures have specific functions that allow an organism to grow, survive and reproduce.

Benchmarks:

9.4.1.1.1 Explain how cell processes are influenced by internal and external factors, such as pH and temperature, and how cells and organisms respond to changes in their environment to maintain homeostasis.

9.4.1.2.2 Recognize that the work of the cell is carried out primarily by proteins, most of which are enzymes, and that protein function depends on the amino acid sequence and the shape it takes as a consequence of the interactions between those amino acids.
