Structure of cells, tissues, organs. The rock cycle and plate tectonics. Ecosystems, and factors that impact them.

Cell theory describes cells as the basic units of life. The structure of cells, tissues and organs in a plant and an animal organ system are related to their function; plant and animal organ systems enable survival of the organism.
Earth is a dynamic planet as demonstrated by tectonic activity, including the formation of geological features supported by scientific evidence.
Key processes of the rock cycle formation and how properties impact usefulness and determine the methods used when mined.
Matter and energy flow through ecosystems, including food webs and food pyramids, habitat loss, climate change, seasonal migration and introduction or removal of species.
