components and processes Students:
within biological systems a. describe some examples of how multicellular organisms respond to
changes in their environment
A student explains how b. describe how the coordinated function of internal systems in
biological understanding has multicellular organisms provides cells with requirements for life,
advanced through scientific including gases, nutrients and water, and removes cell wastes
discoveries, technological d. describe the role of, and interaction between, the coordination
SC5- systems in maintaining humans as functioning organisms
developments and the needs
15LW e. discuss, using examples, how the values and needs of contemporary
of society society can influence the focus of scientific research, eg the occurrence
of diseases affecting animals and plants, an epidemic or pandemic
disease in humans or lifestyle related non-infectious diseases in
humans
SC5- A student produces a plan to WS5.3 Students choose equipment or resources for an investigation
5WS investigate identified by:
questions, hypotheses or a. identifying appropriate equipment and materials
problems, individually and b. identifying the appropriate units to be used in collecting data
collaboratively c. selecting equipment to collect and record reliable data or
information, using digital technologies as appropriate, eg data loggers
SC5- A student processes, WS7.1 Students process data and information by:
7WS analyses and evaluates data a. selecting and using a variety of methods to organise data and
from first-hand information including diagrams, tables, models, spreadsheets and
investigations and databases
secondary sources to b. selecting and extracting information from tables, flow diagrams,
develop evidence-based other texts, audiovisual resources and graphs, including histograms
arguments and conclusions and column, sector or line graphs
WS7.2 Students analyse data and information by:
a. analysing patterns and trends, including identifying inconsistencies
in data and information
b. describing relationships between variables
d. using knowledge of scientific concepts to draw conclusions that are
consistent with evidence

Glossary
Cells Basic unit of life.
Tissues Cells grouped together eg muscle cells grouped together make muscle
tissue in your thigh.
Organ Made up of different tissues eg the heart is an organ.
Multicellular A living thing made up of many cells.
Brain The main organ of the nervous system which controls all the systems
of the body.
Brain stem The base of the brain which controls involuntary actions such as
breathing and heartbeat.
Cerebellum A small crinkly part of the nervous system at the lower back of the
brain which controls involuntary actions such as balance and
coordination.
Cerebrum The largest part of the brain, it controls memory, speech and
voluntary actions, and receives information from sense receptors.
Endocrine glands Glands found in various places in the body which produce hormones
and release them directly into the blood.
Hormones Chemical messages which control important processes of a living thing
such as growth.
Negative feedback A system of control in the body in which the response acts as a
system stimulus to oppose the change caused by the original stimulus.
Neuron
The basic unit of the nervous system.
Reflex action
An automatic response to a stimulus without involving the brain.
