| Standard | Description | Correlation Type |
|---|---|---|
| NGSS-HS-CC-2 | Cause and Effect: Mechanism and Explanation. | |
| NGSS-HS-CC-2-1 | Empirical evidence is required to differentiate between cause and correlation and make claims about specific causes and effects. | SB Content SB Content SB Content |
| NGSS-HS-CC-2-2 | Systems can be designed to cause a desired effect. | SB Content SB Content SB Content |
| NGSS-HS-CC-2-3 | Cause and effect relationships can be suggested and predicted for compex natural and human designed systems by examining what is known about smaller scale mechanisms within the system. | SB Content SB Content SB Content SB Content |
| NGSS-HS-CC-3 | Systems and System Models. | |
| NGSS-HS-CC-3-1 | When investigating or describing a system, the boundaries and initial conditions of the system need to be defined and their inputs and outputs analyzed and described using models. | |
| NGSS-HS-CC-3-1-1 | When investigating or describing a system, the boundaries and initial conditions of the system need to be defined. | SB Content SB Content SB Content SB Content |
| NGSS-HS-CC-3-1-2 | When investigating or describing a system, the inputs and outputs of the system need to be analyzed and described using models. | SB Content |
| NGSS-HS-CC-3-2 | Models can be used to predict the behavior of a system, but these predictions have limited precision and reliability due to the assumptions and approximations inherent in models. | SB Content SB Content SB Content |
| NGSS-HS-CC-3-3 | Models (e.g., physical, mathematical, computer models) can be used to simulate systems and interactions--including energy, matter, and information flows--within and between systems at different scales. | SB Content SB Content SB Content SB Content SB Content SB Content SB Content |
| NGSS-HS-CC-4 | Energy and Matter: Flows, Cycles, and Conservation. | |
| NGSS-HS-CC-4-1 | In nuclear processes, atoms are not conserved, but the total number of protons plus neutrons is conserved. | SB Content SB Content SB Content SB Assess SB Assess TE Assess TE Assess |
| NGSS-HS-CC-4-2 | Changes of energy and matter in a system can be described in terms of energy and matter [that] flows into, out of, and within that system. | SB Content SB Content SB Content SB Content SB Content SB Assess TE Assess |
| NGSS-HS-CC-4-3 | Energy cannot be created or destroyed--[it] only moves between one place and another place, between objects and/or fields, or between systems. | SB Content SB Content SB Content SB Content |
| NGSS-HS-CC-5 | Stability and Change. | |
| NGSS-HS-CC-5-1 | Systems can be designed for greater or lesser stability. | SB Content SB Content SB Content |
| NGSS-HS-DCI | Disciplinary Core Ideas | |
| NGSS-HS-DCI-PS1.C | Nuclear Processes | |
| NGSS-HS-DCI-PS1.C-1 | Nuclear processes, including fusion, fission, and radioactive decays of unstable nuclei, involve release or absorption of energy. The total number of neutrons plus protons does not change in any nuclear process. | N/A |
| NGSS-HS-DCI-PS1.C-1-1 | The nuclear process of fusion can involve the release or absorption of energy. | SB Content SB Content SB Assess TE Assess |
