It is the branch of biology that aims to understand the mechanisms of living things, from the basis of cell function at the ionic and molecular level to the integrated behaviour of the whole body and the influence of the external environment.

“The more I learn, the more I realize how much I don’t know.

Ask studentsQ: How did your body get here?Q: How does your body work?Q: How did cats/dogs become pets?.

Other advancements due to increased knowledge of biology:.

If time allows, have students share ideas.If time allows, have students share ideas aloud to the class.

Instruct students to give specific examples (ex., don’t just say “plants”) Reiterate this point: DO NOT to repeat items on the concept map!.

We already introduced this with HUMAN NEEDS, but…Ask students: Q: How are humans dependent on other living things?Q: What is the role of humans in the living world?Q: What is your place in the natural world?.

Materials: Lined yellow paper = loose and 3-hole punched (1 per student for notes)Construction paper for concept map (1 per team 2-3 stds per team with partners preferred size)Markers in baskets on tables (shared at table)Slide #1Hand out lined yellow paper.Instruct students to put the date on the top line.Instruct students to write the question.
