CAMP Biology PreAP
Unit 1: Biomolecules (9A,9C)
8/26 – 9/12
Enduring
Understandings
(s)/goals:
EU1: Identify the
four different
biomolecules
(carbohydrates,
lipids, proteins, and
nucleic acids).
Compare their
structures and
functions.
EU2: An enzyme, a
type of protein,
speeds up reaction
rates and is affected
by pH, temperature,
and substrate
concentration.
Stage 1 – Desired Results
Essential Question(s):
Student outcomes (objective):
EQ1: Why is it
important to learn
about the basic
building blocks of
life?
9A(R): SWBAT compare the structure and functions of different types of
biomolecules including carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids.
ELPS: 3B: Use new vocabulary in oral and written communication.
EQ2: How does the
presence or
absence of 1 of
these building
blocks effect the
health of an
organism?
EQ3: What are
9C(S): Investigate and identify the role of enzymes.

Stage 3 – Learning Plan
DIFFERENTIATION
SCAFFOLD: define and identity for notes, compare structures & functions during lab, analyze formation of organic molecules
ACCELERATE: PREAP – element ratios, matter phases of lipids, animal vs plant storage for carbohydrates, saturated vs unsaturated lipids,
cholesterol health impact, protein types- antibodies, enzymes, collagen, hemoglobin, nucleic acids- DNA vs RNA nucleotides (deoxyribose vs ribose)
GROUP: Biomolecules lab, Biomolecules table, Enzymes Lab, re-teach individuals during stations review
