1.3.1: : Examine and compare the structure of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.

1.3.2: : Describe the differences between plant and animal cells.

1.3.3: : Describe eukaryotic cellular structures and the ways in which they manage various cell processes. Include: nucleus, nucleolus, nuclear membrane, ribosomes, smooth and rough endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, vesicles, chromosomes, lysosomes, microtubules and microfilaments, vacuoles, mitochondria, centrioles, chloroplasts, cell membranes and cell walls.

1.4: : Photosynthesis and Respiration

1.4.1: : Describe the structure of mitochondria, and chloroplasts.

1.4.2: : Compare and contrast the basic matter and energy transformations associated with the processes of photosynthesis and aerobic respiration.

1.4.3: : Demonstrate that photosynthesis and aerobic respiration are complementary processes.

1.4.4: : Design and perform experiments to investigate photosynthesis and respiration.

1.4.5: : Explain the importance of the processes of photosynthesis and aerobic respiration to human enterprises.

1.5: : Cell Membranes

1.5.1: : Explain how materials are able to move into and out of cells through a selectively permeable membrane. Include:

1.5.1.a: : Fluid mosaic model

1.5.1.b: : Passive transport â?? osmosis, diffusion and facilitated diffusion

1.5.1.c: : Active transport â?? molecular transport, endo- and exocytosis

1.5.2: : Describe the effects of osmosis on cells with and without cell walls.

2: : Biodiversity

2.2: : Characteristics of Major Groups

2.2.4: : Analyze and explain the major features of a virus and its reproductive cycle.

2.3: : A More Detailed Look at Plants

2.3.2: : Describe the structure and function of a flower, and compare the structure of monocot and dicot seeds.

2.3.6: : Students should design and carry out experiments on plant tropisms.

2.5: : Biodiversity within Ecosystems

2.5.1: : Explain how biodiversity of New Brunswick ecosystems is related to their sustainability.

2.5.2: : Compare New Brunswick eco-regions in terms of biodiversity, climate, physical geography, and location.

2.5.3: : Analyze the impact of human behaviour, and human population growth on biodiversity and ecosystems.

3: : Maintaining Dynamic Equilibrium I

3.1: : Homeostasis

3.1.1: : Explain what is meant by the concept of homeostasis and its critical nature to living things.

3.1.2: : Using humans as an example, explore ways that behaviours and systems respond to changes in the external environment.

3.2: : Digestive system â?? the chemistry of nutrition

3.2.1: : Identify and describe the structure and function of carbohydrates, protein, lipids and nucleic acids and where they are found in living organisms.

3.2.3: : Describe eating and digestive disorders and their effect on the homeostasis of the system and the organism as a whole.

3.3: : Digestive System â?? the process of digestion and excretion

3.3.1: : Describe the structures, purpose and functioning of the digestive system.

3.3.2: : Identify the major glands of digestion, their secretions and their role in the digestive process.

3.4: : Circulatory and Respiratory System

3.4.1: : Explain the function of the human circulatory and respiratory systems and how they interact.

3.4.2: : Trace the flow of blood through the heart, describe the pulmonary and systemic pathways, and follow the flow through the complete cycle.

3.4.7: : Describe disorders linked to the circulatory system and/or the respiratory system and their effect on the homeostasis of the system and the organism as a whole.
