          a. Structure and function in living systems (such as the complementary nature of structure and function in cells, 
              organs, tissues, organ systems, whole organisms, and ecosystems.) 
              c. Regulation and behavior (such as senses and behavior; and response to environmental stimuli.) 
       d. Populations and ecosystems (such as the roles of producers, consumers, and decomposers in a food web; and 
              the effects of resources and energy transfer on populations.) 
              e. Evolution, diversity, and adaptation of organisms (such as common ancestry, speciation, adaptation, 
              variation, and extinction.) 
              S3 Earth and Space Sciences Concepts 
                d. Natural resource managment. 
              S4 Scientific Connections and Applications 
              a. Big ideas and unifying concepts (such as order and organization; models, form, and function; change and 
              constancy; and cause and effect.) 
              S5 Scientific Thinking 
              f. Works indivitually and in teams to collect and share information and ideas. 
              S6 Scientific Tools and Technologies 
         a. Uses technology and tools to observe and measure objects, organisms, and phenomena, directly, indirectly 
              and remotely. 
              d. Acquires information from multiple sources (such as print, the Internet, computer data bases, and 
              experimentation.) 
              S7 Scientific Communication 
          a. Represents data and results in multiple ways (such as numbers, tables, and graphs; drawings, diagrams, and 
              artwork; and technical and creative writing.)

                                       The local and global patterns of ecosystems. 
                                       How ecosystems work 
                                       How physical processes produce changes in ecosystems. 
                                       How human activities influence changes in ecosystems 
                                               Applied Learning Standards 

              A2 Communications Tools and Techniques 
              a. Makes an oral presentation of project plans or findings to an audience beyond the school; that is: 

                     adjusts the style of presentation to suit it's purpose and audience; 
                     speaks clearly and presents confidently 
                     responds appropraitely to questions from the audience 
                     evaluates the effectiveness of the presentation. 

              A3 Information Tools and Techniques 
              b. The student uses information technolgy to assis in gatehering, analyzing, organizing, and loresenting 
              informatinom, that is, the student: 

                     acquires information for specific purposes from on-line sources, such as the Internet, and other 
                     electronic data bases, such as a scientific data base on CD-ROM 
                     uses word-processing, grapyhics, data base, and spreadsheet programs to produce project reports and 
                     related materials.
