------------------------ MM: Lezione ------------------------ - How substances move in the organism - "Animal electricity": cellular potentials and communication - How the muscle contracts and reflex movements - Brain and central control of movement - Sensitivity: body sensation and pain - Eye and vision - Hearing, balance, and chemical senses - How the heart works - How do we breathe - How the kidney works - Digestion and absorption of foods - The hormones. ------------------------ MM: Laboratorio ------------------------ The laboratory module is organized into two independent parts, and the related programs are: Part 1: practical use of the brightfield optical microscope (laboratory experience). Part 2: Evaluation of the truthfulness of a news indicated as "scientific" by researching its sources (practical experience in the classroom). ------------------------ MM: Laboratorio ------------------------ Biology laboratory to understand how to approach microscopy, enzimology, pigment extractions, pH measurements, physiology and perception with children. ------------------------ MM: Laboratorio ------------------------ Biology laboratory to understand how to approach microscopy, enzimology, pigment extractions, pH measurements, physiology and perception with children. ------------------------ MM: Laboratorio ------------------------

-(almost) all the living being are made up of cell/cells; -the diversity of living organisms: prokaryotes and eukaryotes, unicellular and multicellular organisms, autotrophic and heterotrophic organisms, the kingdoms of eukaryotes, the "superior" organisms (higher plants and animals); -Relationships between living beings (metabolisms and trophic networks); -the organisms evolve; - animals and plants have different life strategies; - science and scientists share a method of investigation (the scientific method) and a method of disseminating scientific discoveries (publication through "peer review").
