(these files are pre – uploaded on schoology ready for viewing)
4. Evaluation N/A
Q9. What is cytoskeleton?
3.3. Abstraction:
The teacher escalates the understanding of the students
about the cell, cell theory, and cell structure and function
through video presentation, lecture discussion, answering
quiz, and accomplishing activity on historical timeline of the
cell.
Cell Theory
Cell Structure and Function

The students understand how the cell works along with the
processes associated with it fundamental to sustain life such
as energy utilization and production, immune response, etc.)
