Structures and Functions of Living Organisms

Essential Standard

Clarifying Objectives

7.L.2 Understand the relationship of the mechanisms of cellular reproduction, patterns of inheritance and external factors to potential variation among offspring.

7.L.2.1 Explain why offspring that result from sexual reproduction (fertilization and meiosis) have greater variation than offspring that result from asexual reproduction (budding and mitosis).

7.L.2.2 Infer patterns of heredity using information from Punnett squares and pedigree analysis.

7.L.2.3 Explain the impact of the environment and lifestyle choices on biological inheritance (to include common genetic diseases) and survival.

MONDAY OCTOBER 20

First Day back from Track Out

Preview the Unit (30 min)

o Cells, Genetics & Heredity o Read Essential Standards 7.L.1 & 7.L.2 o Chapters

#1—The Cell #4—Patterns of Heredity* #5—DNA and Modern Genetics* (Focused chapters—Unit will be more challenging)

o Webquest, Independent / Group / Partner Projects, Labs, Homework, Classwork

o Quizzes will be given at the end of each Chapter o Essential Questions –Extra Credit o Windshield Check

CLEAR= I get it! BUGS= I get it for the most part, but some things are still

unclear. MUD= I still don’t get it!

Remember these Rules… o Bring your Warm-Up composition book everyday o Tardies = Lunch Detention o Any noise making in class = automatic Lunch Detention o If you interrupt my class you WILL be sent out!!! o Each person needs to go to the bathroom in between classes. That

also goes for water! Use your bathroom pass. If no bathroom pass = Lunch Detention.

o Behavior & Academics will hold you back from field trip so be on your best in both areas.

o If you miss a day go on the Team Weebly and click on Science. Also, look in the Missed Assignments caddy for work. You have the same about of days that you were missing to make up all work.

Warm-Up # 1 Write a theory about the difference between a living thing and a nonliving thing. Describe how you would test your theory.

• Theory- the analysis of a set of facts in their relation to one another;

abstract thought. • Living- having life; active, functioning, exhibiting the life or motion of

nature. • Nonliving- not alive or living

Part of Cell:

Function

Cell Membrane Encloses cell (gives shape) and controls what enters and leaves the cell

Nucleus Control center; regulates metabolic activities, is surrounded by a double -layered membrane.

Cell wall Found only in plant cells. Forms a thick outer covering outside the cell membrane, gives the plant support and shape; Protective out barrier

Chloroplasts Found only in plant cells. Found in the cytoplasm of green plant cells, contain chlorophyll, traps the energy (food) from light, and is where photosynthesis takes place.

Mitochondria Produce energy when food is broken down, often called the "Powerhouse of the Cell"; Cellular respiration

Vacuole(s) Stores food, water, wastes and building materials In plants it takes up a lot of space. There maybe more than one.

Cytoplasm Jellylike material that surrounds organelles most of the cell's chemical reactions take place there, and made up of mostly water and some chemicals. Transports materials.

Organelle A differentiated structure within a cell, such as a mitochondrion, vacuole, or chloroplast, which performs a specific function.

Endoplasmic Reticulum Transports, and stores some substances, throughout the cell; "ER"

Lysosome Breaks down nutrients and foreign substances digests food particles with enzymes

Ribosome Where proteins are made, and often connected to the endoplasmic reticulum. A cell may have as many as 500,000.

Golgi Apparatus Flat stacks, packages and secretes from cell.

Vesicles a small bubble of liquid within a cell

Describe the genotype that might be possible for each parent for each parent for coat color. Both parents have white and black alleles; white is dominant, so more offspring are white. But it is possible for both alleles to be black (recessive) some of the time.

Review Warm-Up o Ask: What is a pedigree? (It is a diagram used to track a

particular trait through a family to show possible carriers and those who are affected with the condition.)

Engage: o Ask: What are genetic disorders? (A genetic disorder is a disease caused by abnormalities in an individual’s genetic material. The normal function of a gene is to encode a protein, not to cause an illness. Disease occurs when genes are unable to work properly.) o What are some common examples of genetic disorders? (Down Syndrome, Sickle Cell Anemia, Cystic Fibrosis, Hemophilia, Huntington Disease, Tay-Sachs Disease, Alzheimer Disease)

PPP Genetic Disorders: o Includes pictures and descriptions of the disorders o Script:

Genetic disorders may also be caused by chromosomal abnormalities. They are diseases caused by a different form of a gene called a variation, or an alteration of a gene called a mutation. Some genetic diseases, including many cancers, are caused by a mutation in a gene or group of genes in a person's cells. These mutations can occur randomly or because of an environmental exposure such as cigarette smoke. Other genetic disorders are inherited. A mutated gene is passed

down through a family and each generation of children can inherit the gene that causes the disease. Still other genetic disorders are due to problems with the number of packages of genes called chromosomes. In Down syndrome, for example, there is an extra copy of chromosome 21.

Activity: “Genetic Four Corners” o Post four pertinent questions in the corners of the room.

Have the students count off by 4, join cooperative groups and decide the answer to their question(s). Each group will share their response with the whole group.

o Questions: #1—How can someone find out if they are at risk

for a genetic disease? #2—Name 4 genetic diseases. #3—How is it possible for 2 healthy parents to have

a child with a genetic disorder? #4—How may genetic risk factors be reduced or

neutralized?

Decide if these statements are true. If not true, correct them. 1. Mutations are always harmful.

Mutations can be harmful, neutral, or they can be beneficial. 2. Mutations can only be caused by environmental factors.

Mutations can be caused by both environmental factors and by random changes in DNA during replication. 3. The sickle-cell allele is a mutation that is both harmful and beneficial.
