Introduction The purpose of this document is to provide students with enhancement tutorial sessions that will enrich the depth of content knowledge of the Biology 1 course. Each tutorial session is aligned to Biology Annually Assessed Benchmarks of the Next Generation Sunshine State Standards (NGSSS) as described in the course description and the Biology Item Specifications and include an ExploreLearning Gizmos activity and/or a science demonstration followed by assessment questions. The Nature of Science Body of Knowledge (BOK) is embedded in all lessons. Teachers are encouraged to generate an inquiry-based environment where students grow in scientific thinking while creating and responding to higher-order questions. Table of Contents Molecular and Cellular Biology - SC.912.L.14.1 Describe the scientific theory of cells (cell theory) and relate the history of its discovery to the process of science. (Also assesses SC.912.N.1.3, SC.912.N.2.1, SC.912.N.3.1, and SC.912.N.3.4) Activity 1 Cell Theory – Activity 1 - Cell Theory Part A - Procedures: The three key points of are listed below. “Cell Theory” Read each numbered statement in this section and decide which part of cell theory is most directly related to the statement. Write the appropriate letter (A, B, or C) in the space to the left of each statement Use only one letter for each statement. Letters may be used more than once. All organisms are composed of one or more cells. Cells arise from other existing cell. The cell is the basic unit of structure and function in living things. Cell Theory statements If a scientist viewing a cell under a microscope were to cut the cell open, the individual structures within the cell would not continue to function separately.
