5.ESS.4 Develop a model using an example to describe ways the geosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere, and/or atmosphere interact. (1) Examples include the influence of the ocean on ecosystems, landform shape, and climate; the influence of the atmosphere on landforms and ecosystems through weather and climate; and the influence of mountain ranges on winds and clouds in the atmosphere. geosphere – describes all of the rocks, minerals and ground that are found on and in Earth. This includes all of the mountains on the surface, as well as all of the liquid rock in the mantle below us and the minerals and metals of the outer and inner cores. The continents, the ocean floor, all of the rocks on the surface, and all of the sand in the deserts are all considered part of the geosphere. biosphere – composed of all of the living organisms on the planet. This includes all of the plants, animals, bacteria, fungi, and organisms found on Earth. hydrosphere – made up of all the water on Earth. This includes all of the rivers, lakes, streams, oceans, groundwater, polar ice caps, glaciers and moisture in the air (like rain and snow). The hydrosphere is found on the surface of Earth, but also extends down several miles below, as well as several miles up into the atmosphere. atmosphere – envelope of surrounding a planet Systems and System Models ESS2.A: Earth Materials and Systems
Life Science 2016 Indiana Academic Standards Clarifying Statements Vocabulary Crosscutting Concepts Disciplinary Core Ideas 5.LS.1 Develop a model to describe the movement of matter among plants, animals, decomposers, and the environment. (1) Emphasis is on the idea that matter that is not food (air, water, decomposed materials in the soil) is changed by plants into matter that is food. (2) Examples of systems could include organisms, ecosystems, and Earth. decomposer – an organism, especially a soil bacterium, fungus, or invertebrate, that decomposes organic material Systems and System Models LS2.A: Interdependent Relationships in Ecosystems LS2.B: Cycles of Matter and Energy Transfer in Ecosystems
5.LS.2 Observe and classify common Indiana organisms as producers, consumers, decomposers, or predator and prey based on their relationships and interactions with other organisms in their ecosystem. producer – an organism that is able to produce its own food from inorganic substances consumer – an organism that feeds on plants or other animals decomposer – an organism that breaks down the cells of dead plants and animals into smaller substances predator – any organism that exists by preying upon other organisms prey – an animal hunted or seized for food LS2.A: Interdependent Relationships in Ecosystems LS2.C: Ecosystem Dynamics, Functioning, and Resilience
5.LS.3 Use a model to describe that animals receive different types of information through their senses, process the information in their brain, and respond to the information in different ways. (1) Emphasis is on systems of information transfer. Systems and System Models LS1.D: Information Processing Engineering
