Final LTLT#5 Project Rubric


LTLT#5: Reaching Extremes-A Study of Human Body Systems and Homeostasis

Long Term Learning Target #5 I can gather, interpret, and analyze data from extreme situations, to determine the effects on specialized cells, tissues, organs and human body systems.

What effect do extreme situations have on the human body?
Culminating Essay Task: After reading informational texts, write a report that analyzes how each body system contributes to homeostasis in response to extreme situations. Use examples, and scenarios, to provide examples that back up, and support your analysis. What conclusion or implications can you draw? A bibliography is required.
