Step 1 Identify the Need or Problem Define Problem or Scenario: In order to better study how a cell works, a groups of research needs a model or simulation that can mimic the balance a cell must keep to maintain homeostasis. Expected Task: Students will be assigned to create a plant, animal, or bacteria cell model or simulation that demonstrates the maintenance of homeostasis. Step 2 Research the Need or Problem Research and Citations: Written information by the students about the need or problem being solved with citations note. Students may want to consider on how plants, animal, and bacteria obtain their energy and get rid of waste at the cellular level. Vocabulary: homeostasis, energy, waste Step 3 Develop Possible Solution(s) Criteria: The model must specifically demonstrate the process of extracting energy from food and getting rid of waste. The model must respond to various amounts food to maintain consistent high amounts of energy and low waste. The model should have moveable parts.
