MS-LS4-3 Biological Unity and Diversity

Students who demonstrate understanding can: Analyze displays of pictorial data to compare patterns of similarities in the embryological development across multiple species to identify relationships not evident in the fully formed anatomy.
Clarification Statement: Emphasis is on inferring general patterns of relatedness among embryos of different organisms by comparing the macroscopic appearance of diagrams or pictures.
Assessment Boundary: Assessment of comparisons is limited to gross appearance of anatomical structures in embryological development.

Crosscutting Concepts

Science & Engineering Practices 

Disciplinary Core Ideas 

Patterns:

  • Graphs, charts, and images can be used to identify patterns in data.

Analyzing and Interpreting Data:

  • Analyzing data in 6–8 builds on K–5 experiences and progresses to extending quantitative analysis to investigations, distinguishing between correlation and causation, and basic statistical techniques of data and error analysis.
  • Analyze displays of data to identify linear and nonlinear relationships. 

Evidence of Common Ancestry and Diversity:

  • Comparison of the embryological development of different species also reveals similarities that show relationships not evident in the fully-formed anatomy.
