Big Idea: All living things are made of cells that have
specialized organelles used for maintaining and replicating
their own blueprints for life functions and adaptations.
Unit Outline: Cell biology w/ Diffusion & Osmosis Central Dogma
Cell Biology
Cell Biology Standard 1: Identify the fundamental life processes of plants and animals
depend on a variety of chemical reactions that occur in specialized areas of the organism's
cells.
Key Vocabulary =
7.1 cell, nucleus, cell theory, prokaryotes
19.1 bacteria
19.2 virus
7.2 eukaryotes, endoplasmic reticulum, golgi apparatus, ribosome,
chromosome
7.3 lipid bi-layer, diffusion, facilitated diffusion, active transport, osmosis
Key Concepts =
7.1 characteristics of prokaryotes and eukaryotes
19.1 how bacteria is a prokaryote
19.2 structure of a virus, how viruses cause infections
7.2 functions of major cell structures (focus on golgi apparatus, ER, and
nucleus)
7.3 main functions of cell membrane and cell wall, what happens during
diffusion, what osmosis is
Genetics Standard 4: The genetic composition of cells can be altered by incorporation of
exogenous DNA into the cells.
Genetics Standard 3: Genes are a set of instructions encoded in the DNA sequence of
each organism that specify the sequence of amino acids in proteins characteristic of that
organism.
b. Students know how to apply the genetic coding rules to predict the sequence of
amino acids from a sequence of codons in RNA.
c. Students know how mutations in the DNA sequence of a gene may or may not
affect the expression of the gene or the sequence of amino acids in an encoded
protein.
e. Students know proteins can differ from one another in the number and sequence
of amino acids.
