HS-LS1-1. Construct an explanation
based on evidence for how the
structure of DNA determines the
structure of proteins which carry
out the essential functions of life
through systems of specialized cells.
HS-LS1-6. Construct and revise an
explanation based on evidence for
how carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen
from sugar molecules may combine
with other elements to form amino
acids and/or other large carbonbased molecules.
HS-LS1-7. Use a model to illustrate
that cellular respiration is a
chemical process whereby the
bonds of food molecules
and oxygen molecules are broken
and the bonds in new compounds
are formed resulting in a net
transfer of
energy.
