In this chapter, we explore the biological bases of learning and development: the brain-based, neurobiological nature of perception, learning, and memory; how the brain changes in response to experience; how cognitive development occurs through progressive modifications in representations in the brain; and how the tools and methods of the ...
Though the five core concepts offer a comprehensive profile of biology, they are so broad that it can be challenging for biology educators to unpack their complexity in ways that allow them to be used to write learning objectives, design instructional materials, and develop aligned assessments.

Throughout high school, science students will develop their skills in the practices of science. Each year, students will have many opportunities to apply these skills in laboratory and field investigations as well as long-term projects. These practices, as described in A Framework for K–12 Science Education, include: 1. Ask and refine questions tha...
A researcher recently discovered a species of bacteria. DNA sequences were obtained from it and from several other species of bacteria. The DNA sequences came from the same part of the bacterial chromosome of each species. According to the data above, the unknown bacteria are most closely related to which species? 1. Species I 2. Species II 3. Spec...
