3U+Diversity+of+Living+Things

**Diversity of Living Things** **//Overall Expectations://**
 * B1. analyse the effects of various human activities on the diversity of living things;
 * B2. investigate, through laboratory and/or field activities or through simulations, the principles of scientific classification, using appropriate sampling and classification techniques;
 * B3. demonstrate an understanding of the diversity of living organisms in terms of the principles of taxonomy and phylogeny.

//**Big Ideas:**//
 * All living things can be classified according to their anatomical and physiological characteristics
 * Human activities affect the diversity of living things in ecosystems
 * Technological applications that affect biological processes and cellular functions are used in the food, pharmaceutical, and medical industries
