LEARNING RESULT
Essential Question: Enduring Understanding:
1. What is the probability of the genes from parents to offspring? “By their fruits, Ye shall know them”
2. How can the parents transfer the traits to the offspring?
3. How are mammals, amphibians, reptiles and birds different from each
other?
4. Who is Carl Linnaeus?
5. Who is Gregor Mendel?
6. Who is Charles Darwin?
7. How does classification help to understand the groups of organisms?
8. How can I tell the difference between a solid, liquid, gas, and plasma?
9. How do I describe the difference between the states of matter according to
their mass, volume, density, shape, and particle arrangement?
10. Can I draw the differences between the states of matter according to their
mass, volume, density, shape, and particle arrangement?
11. Do I know the correct units of measurement for a gas, liquid and solid?
12. How is matter and energy conserved in the universe?
13. What is matter in the universe made of?
14. How is matter in the universe organized?
15. What is the difference between chemistry terms like atoms, molecules,

Knowledge:
