Unit Lesson Plan – Prokaryotes and Viruses 16 days Teacher: Click here to enter text. Time Frame: 11 Grade: School: PSI Biology Subject:

AP Essential Knowledge 1.B.2 - Phylogenetic trees and cladograms are Instructional Objective: graphical representations (models) of evolutionary history that can be tested (condition, behavior, standard) Instructional Objective: Essential Knowledge 1.D.1: There are several hypotheses about the natural (condition, behavior, standard) origin of life on Earth, each with supporting scientific evidence. Instructional Objective: Essential Knowledge 2.A.2 - Organisms capture and store free energy for (condition, behavior, standard) use in biological processes. Essential Knowledge 3.C.3 - Viral replication results in genetic variation, and Instructional Objective: viral infection can introduce genetic variation into the hosts. (condition, behavior, standard)

Essential Questions (What questions will the student be able to answer as a result of the instruction?) 1. What are the two kingdoms of prokaryotes? 2. How is a prokaryotic cell structured? 3. How do prokaryotes replicate and increase genetic variation in their populations? 4. How does a virus use a host cell for replication? Knowledge & Skills (What skills are needed to achieve the desired results?) By the end of this unit, students will know: By the end of this unit, students will be able to:  Prokaryotes are without an internal membranes,  Use gram stains to distinguish between different types and lack a nucleus. of bacteria.  Bacteria reproduce by binary fission.  Discuss the benefits and implementations of bacteria  A gram stain can be used to classify bacteria in our daily lives. (gram + and gram -).  Discuss bacterial growth and reproduction and the  A virus injects its DNA into a host cell for effect of antimicrobial agents on this growth. replication.  Describe how bacterial gene expression responds to  Viruses replicate through either the lytic cycle or environmental conditions. the lysogenic cycle.  Describe the differences in the lytic cycle and the lysogenic cycle of a virus. Assessment (What is acceptable evidence to show desired results (rubrics, exam, etc.)? Attach Copy

During the Smart Notebook lesson designed to introduce concepts, students will be continually questioned on these concepts using a combination of class work/homework questions and the SMART Response system. Classwork and Homework questions will be discussed as a class and misconceptions will be addressed by the teacher prior to the formal evaluations listed below. www.njctl.org PSI Biology Prokaryotes & Viruses Lab 1 Quiz: Gram Stain Lab
