AP Biology 12 - Unit 3: Cellular Respiration, Photosynthesis and Plant Adaptations
Learning Goal: How does glucose give you energy? What is the significance of cellular respiration and photosynthesis? How are plants adapted for survival?
Concept 1: Analyzing the Processes of Cellular Respiration
Concept 2: Analyzing the Processes of Photosynthesis
Concept 3: Analyzing how plants detect and defend themselves against herbivores and environmental stresses (Ch 39)
Concept 4: Analyzing how water and nutrients move through a plant (Ch 36 and AP Inv 11)
*** Note: Ch 35 provides background on plant anatomy, while Ch 37 and 38 provide illustrative examples of AP Biology Concepts (mutualism, reproduction, genetic diversity). Please refer to Holtzclaw for suggestions and points to consider.***
