Nebraska AFNR Plant Biology:
- Benchmark 1.2: Identify where photosynthesis, respiration, translocation and transpiration influence nutrient cycles.
- Sample Performance Indicators:
Identify which plant process is involved in a specific part of a nutrient or water cycle.
Interpreting results of an experiment relating to these plant processes.
- Sample Performance Indicators:
Nebraska Science Standards:
- SC12.3.1: Students will investigate and describe the chemical basis of the growth, development, and maintenance of cells.
- SC12.3.1.a: Identify the complex molecules (carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, nucleic acids) that make up living organisms
- SC12.3.1.b: Identify the form and function of sub-cellular structures that regulate cellular activities
- SC12.3.1.c: Describe the cellular functions of photosynthesis, respiration, cell division, protein synthesis, transport of materials, and energy capture/release
Objectives:
- The student will demonstrate an understanding of photosynthesis.
- The student will understand the structure and function of a plant.
- The student will understand the impact of nutrients on a plant system.
