Biomolecules Project Based Learning Project
Share

Description

Engage your general science or biology students with this project based learning project. This project will teach students how to apply the four main biomolecules (carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and nucleic acids).

Students will be engaged with an article about a young man who lost his eye sight due to the lack of proper nutrients. Then the students will do their own research about the four main biomolecules (building blocks, structure, types and sources). They will then inform the public by creating a 3-day suggested meal plan for young people in order to incorporate all of the biomolecules.

Teach guide, keys, color and b&w student worksheets and a grading rubric all included.

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
NGSSMS-LS1-7
Develop a model to describe how food is rearranged through chemical reactions forming new molecules that support growth and/or release energy as this matter moves through an organism. Emphasis is on describing that molecules are broken apart and put back together and that in this process, energy is released. Assessment does not include details of the chemical reactions for photosynthesis or respiration.
NGSSHS-LS1-1
Construct an explanation based on evidence for how the structure of DNA determines the structure of proteins, which carry out the essential functions of life through systems of specialized cells. Assessment does not include identification of specific cell or tissue types, whole body systems, specific protein structures and functions, or the biochemistry of protein synthesis.
NGSSHS-LS1-6
Construct and revise an explanation based on evidence for how carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen from sugar molecules may combine with other elements to form amino acids and/or other large carbon-based molecules. Emphasis is on using evidence from models and simulations to support explanations. Assessment does not include the details of the specific chemical reactions or identification of macromolecules.
