Warm Up-

1. Write out the Levels of Organization within a multicellular organism

2. Why do you think cells are the smallest level?

Monday October 27, 2014

Students will be able to model and explain the levels of organization within a multicellular organism.

Objective

Create a way to show the levels of organization differently than what we have done already. You are making your own way to organize this information. You will share this with the class. It will count as a project grade. You will be able to work on this in class on Monday and Tuesday. It will be due on Wednesday 10/29.

Cells make up tissues, tissues make up organs, etc.

You may create one of the following or a combination of the following:A song/ rapPictures/ diagrams/ comicsStoryParagraph explaining the levels of organizationPowerPoint

Levels of Organization Project

Give a brief description of each level of organization starting with the smallest and moving to the largest.

Exit Ticket

Pretend you are a scientist on Mars. One day, your research team discovers a Martian settlement with creatures you've never seen. You examine them closely and see that they are made up of cells, but not human cells. These creatures have cells with structures very different from human cells even though the cells function in similar ways.

Imagine the kinds of structures the Martian cells might need in order to live and survive. Create drawings of what you think the Martian cell structures would look like. Be sure to label the Martian organelles (differently from human cells) and describe how each part of the Martian cell helps it to survive. See if you can think of ways that several different cells might work together to accomplish the same results as your human cells.

Give your organism a scientific name.

Homework

Warm Up-

Look at your terrariums. Write down some observations you see. What has changed? What has

stayed the same?

Levels of Organization Project

Warm Up-

Come up with an example for the levels of organization.

For example, muscle cells join together to make muscle tissie. Muscle tissue is found in the stomach.

The stomach is an organ in the digestive system.
