I understand that free energy, the portion of a biological system’s that can perform work when temperature and pressure are uniform throughout the system, is used in systems to cause change. I also understand that empirical data proves all organisms require a constant energy output to maintain organization, to grow, and to reproduce. (Campbell 119-123)
LO 2.2 I understand that although free energy is always required in living systems in order to maintain organization, to grow, and to reproduce, there are multiples ways in which living systems use the energy. (Campbell 119-123)
LO 2.3 I understand, in order to calculate changes in free energy availability, which affects organisms, populations, and ecosystems, a free energy equation …show more content…
LO 2.7
I understand cell size and shape affect the overall rate of nutrient intake and rate of waste elimination by determining
LO 2.8 I understand data, regarding the types of molecules that an animal, plant, or bacterium will take up as necessary building blocks and excrete as waste products, is significant in biological studies.
LO 2.9 I understand how to represent qualitative data based on the exchange of molecules between an organism and its environment, and the subsequent use of these molecules to build new molecules that facilitate dynamic homeostasis, growth, and reproduction.
LO 2.10 I understand scientific questions about the properties of cell membranes and selective permeability based on molecular structure may be raised through representations and models.
LO 2.11 I understand models may be constructed that show the connections between movement of molecules across membranes and membrane structure and
