Common Assessment 3.1

The first Common Assessment for the 3rd Quarter will be on Monday, February 14 (A-Day) and Tuesday, February 15 (B-Day). The following will be covered on the Common Assessment:

Standards
SC.912.L.14.7 Relate the structure of each of the major plant organs and tissues to physiological processes.
SC.912.N.1.1 Define a problem based on a specific body of knowledge(botany) and
 Pose a question about the natural world;
 Plan an investigation;
 Conduct systematic observations;
 Infer the meaning of data collected to answer the question; and
 Communicate the data and explanations to others.
SC.912.L.18.9 Explain the interrelated nature of photosynthesis and cellular respiration.
SC.912.L.18.8 Identify the reactants, products, and basic functions of aerobic and anaerobic cellular respiration.
SC.912.L.18.7 Identify the reactants, products, and basic functions of photosynthesis.
SC.912.L.18.10 Connect the role of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to energy transfers within a cell.

Objectives
1. Student can identify and explain the relationships between a specific plant structure and its function(s).
2. Student understands the role of photosynthesis in plants.
3. Student can identify what goes into and is the result of the chemical reactions of photosynthesis.
4. Student can explain the benefit and use of ATP/ADP in energy storage and release.
5. Students can track the path of water through cellular respiration and photosynthesis.
6. Students can track the path of energy trans-formations in photosynthesis and respiration from light energy to mechanical energy in animals.
7. Students can identify the reactants, products, and basic functions of cellular respiration and photosynthesis.
8. Students can differentiate between aerobic and anaerobic cellular respiration.
