Use the Internet to help you to learn the West Virginia Content Standards for 7th Grade Science

	West Virginia 7th Grade Content Standard 2 Objectives
7.2.2	Identify and describe disease causing organisms: bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and fungi and the diseases they cause
7.2.3	Explain how skeletal, muscular, and integumentary (skin) systems work together in the human body
7.2.4	Compare the level of organization of cells, tissues and organs in living things
7.2.5	Construct simple keys to differentiate among living things with similar characteristics
7.2.6	Use pictures to show water cycle, nitrogen cycle, and carbon cycle
7.2.7	Evaluate how adaptations and life cycles of plants and animals help them to survive in different environments
7.2.8	Analyze how changes in environment have led to reproductive adaptations through natural selection
7.2.9	Explain how an organism's behavior response is a combination of heredity and the environment
7.2.10	Analyze the differences in growth, development, and reproduction in flowering and non-flowering plants
7.2.11	Predict the trends of interdependent populations if one of the limiting factors is changed
7.2.12	Evaluate the consequences of introducing chemicals into the ecosystem
7.2.13	Compare the differences among elements, compounds, and mixtures

7.2.17	Describe the movement of individual particles and verify the conservation of matter during phase changes
7.2.18	Identify the characteristics of sound waves and describe how sound is perceived by the ear
7.2.19	Define the absorption and reflection of light as translucent, opaque, or transparent
7.2.20	Interpret and illustrate changes in waves as they encounter various mediums (mirrors or lenses)
7.2.21	Investigate absorption and reflection of light by an object
7.2.22	Characterize series and parallel circuits; AC and DC currents
7.2.23	Explain conservation of energy and investigate the different forms of energy

7.2.25	Explain the effect of gravity on falling objects
7.2.26	Describe and compare the causes of tides, surfs, and currents Tides Surfs Currents
7.2.27	Examine the effects of the sun's energy on oceans and weather (air masses and convection currents)
7.2.28	Interpret GIS maps and create and interpret topographical maps
7.2.29	Describe rock formations (rock cycle)
