In this unit we will focus on the understanding that the cell is the basic unit of life and the processes that occur at the cellular level provide the energy and basic structure organisms need to survive. More specifically, you will learn about the cell theory and the structure and function of parts in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.
Essential Question: How are cell structures adapted to their function?
