Life ScienceLS2

  • 1.

    All organisms have external parts that they use to perform daily functions.LS2.1.1

    1. a.

      Use materials to design a solution to a human problem by mimicking how plants and/or animals use their external parts to help them survive, grow and meet their needs.LS2.1.1.a

    2. b.

      Read texts and use media to determine patterns in behavior of parents and offspring that help offspring survive.LS2.1.1.b

  • 2.

    Young organisms are very much, but not exactly, like their parents, and also resemble other organisms of the same kind.LS2.1.2

    1. a.
