Expectations

  • SZ3.a

    Plan and carry out investigations to determine patterns in morphology (including organ systems, symmetry and body cavities) of representative animal taxa.

  • SZ3.b

    Construct an explanation of life functions (i.e., reproduction, respiration, digestion) at appropriate level of organization for representative taxa.

  • SZ3.c

    Construct an explanation based on evidence to relate important structural changes across evolutionary history to key functional transitions.
