Anatomy & Physiology Unit 2:
Cells and Chemistry
Daily Plans are Linked Here
Unit Driving Questions
- How is a human body built from atoms? (Part 1: Building the Building Blocks of Life.)
Understandings
- A complex set of chemical reactions provide the substances and energy needed to sustain life:
- Cells have many of the same organelles
- The same organelle in one cell can produce different products than the same organelle in a different type of cell
- The same 4 types of organic molecules (macromolecules) make up all living things.
- Chemical reactions in cells take place based on the cell’s environment and substances present
- Cells get old and die. Cells reproduce, generating new cells.
