Understandings about scientific inquiry<br />

• Scientists usually inquire about how physical, living, or designed<br />

systems function.<br />

• Scientists conduct investigations for a wide variety <strong>of</strong> reasons, such<br />

as to discover new aspects <strong>of</strong> the natural world, to explain observed<br />

phenomenon, or to test conclusions <strong>of</strong> prior investigations or predictions<br />

<strong>of</strong> current theories.<br />

• Scientists rely on technology to enhance gathering and manipulating<br />

data.<br />

• Mathematics is essential in all aspects <strong>of</strong> scientific inquiry.<br />

• Scientific explanations must adhere to criteria.<br />

• Results <strong>of</strong> scientific inquiry—new knowledge and methods—emerge<br />

from different types <strong>of</strong> investigations and public communication<br />

among scientists.<br />

The cell<br />

• Cell functions are regulated. Regulation occurs both through changes<br />

in the activity <strong>of</strong> the functions performed by proteins and through the<br />

selective expression <strong>of</strong> individual genes. This regulation allows cells to<br />

respond to their environment and to control and coordinate cell<br />

growth and division.<br />
