Webb’s Leveling Standard and Examples
  • Recall - PBS 4.1 Create two dimensional drawings of the human heart labeling all important structures.
  • Recall - PBS 4.2 Discuss the background of laboratory tools such as polymerase chain reaction, restriction enzymes, and gel electrophoresis.
  • Recall - PBS 4.3 Investigate the role that blood pressure and cholesterol lowering medications play in treating heart disease.
  • Skill/Concept - PBS 4.4 Dissect a sheep’s heart, accurately identifying and describing the function of the specified structures.
  • Skill/Concept - PBS 4.5 Compare and contrast the characteristics of the different cardiac tissue types using a microscope.
  • Skill/Concept - PBS 4.6 Identify, sketch, and measure red and white blood cells viewed under a microscope.
  • Skill/Concept - PBS 4.7 Create a product informing other students about HDL and LDL and how these molecules are associated with the risk for heart disease.
  • Skill/Concept - PBS 4.8 Complete a laboratory exercise to test patients’ blood for cholesterol levels.
  • Skill/Concept - PBS 4.9 Calculate and graph the amplification of DNA during the polymerase chain reaction.
  • Skill/Concept - PBS 4.10 Use proper laboratory techniques to separate DNA fragments by gel electrophoresis.
  • Strategic Thinking - PBS 4.11 Explain how the design of the four-chambered heart allows the heart to pump both oxygenated and un-oxygenated blood without mixing.
  • Strategic Thinking - PBS 4.12 Collect and analyze EKG data.
  • Strategic Thinking - PBS 4.13 Modify vessel lengths and/or widths to determine how these modifications change the flow of blood through the heart.
  • Strategic Thinking - PBS 4.14 Build a pump that successfully moves 150 mL of water from one location to another.
  • Strategic Thinking - PBS 4.15 Use the Experimental Design Process to create and carry out experiments on blood pressure and heart rate.
  • Strategic Thinking - PBS 4.16 Create a board game that demonstrates the steps or stages in the development, trial, and approval of pharmaceuticals.
  • Extended Thinking - PBS 4.17 Complete a formal lab report to explain the results of the heart rate or blood pressure experiment.
  • Extended Thinking - PBS 4.18 Create a model to demonstrate various heart blockages and use this model to demonstrate different treatment techniques to unblock vessels.
