Cells: Organic Molecules & Energy Processes

This document outlines 14 learning targets related to cells. The targets cover organic macromolecules like carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids. They also address photosynthesis and respiration, including describing the processes, identifying reactants and products, comparing the transformation of matter and energy, and explaining the production of ATP through cellular respiration. Finally, the targets involve comparing and contrasting animal and plant cells and explaining the selective role of cell membranes.

Unit 3: Cells Learning Targets

Organic Macromolecules:
1.
I can recognize the six most common elements in organic molecules (C, H, N, O, P, S).
(L2.p5A)
2.
I can describe the composition of the four major categories of organic molecules
(carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, nucleic acids). (B2.2C)
3.
I can explain the general structure and primary functions of the major complex organic
molecules that compose living organisms. (B2.2D)
4.
I can recognize and explain that macromolecules such as lipids contain high energy
bonds. (B2.5A)
5.
I can explain the role of enzymes and other proteins in biochemical functions (e.g.
digestive enzymes, hemoglobin carries oxygen, and hormones). (B2.2f)
Photosynthesis/Respiration:
6.
I can describe how organisms acquire energy directly or indirectly from sunlight. (B3.1A)
7.
I can explain how cells transform energy through the processes of photosynthesis and
respiration. (B2.1A)
8.
I can illustrate and describe the energy conversions that occur during photosynthesis
and respiration. (B3.1B)
9.
I can identify the reactants and products in the general reactions of photosynthesis and
respiration. (B2.1A)
10.
I can compare and contrast the transformation of matter and energy during
photosynthesis and respiration. (B2.1B)
11.
I can explain how cellular respiration is important for the production of ATP (build on
aerobic vs. anaerobic). (B2.4e)
12.
I can explain the interrelated nature of photosynthesis and respiration in terms of ATP
synthesis and degradation. (B2.5e)
13.
I can compare and contrast animal and plant cells. (B2.5g)
14.
I can explain the role of cell membranes as a highly selective barrier (diffusion, osmosis,
and active transport). (B2.5h)
