​Metabolism Review

In the unit on the metabolism, you took on the roles as medical students.

​ Your jobs was to diagnose a 12 year-old patient name Elisa who arrived in the E.R. complaining that she felt tired all of the time.

​

Video: Elisa's Condition​

​

Metabolism | Lesson 1.2

We watched a video where Elisa was in the E.R. and presented a series of symptoms.

Open Ended

After watching the video, discuss with your group and write down Elisa's symptoms that were mentioned in the video.

​Metabolism Simulation

Next, you used a human body simulation to help learn more about how human body functions.

you learned how food breaks down into different molecules​ and those molecules are absorbed into the body.

Your learned that the body uses these molecules from food for energy and growth.​

Chapter| 1.2

Metabolism Review

Next you read an article called "Molecules Cells Need"

The article helped us to investigate why Elisa is feeling so tired all of the time.​

What happens to a person when their cells don't get what they need in order to function properly?

• Nothing.

• You can get sick and have a medical condition

• You can get tired all of the time

• You will have to eat more food to make sure your body is getting everything it needs.

Metabolism Review

Lesson 1.3 Key Concept

A functioning human body has molecules from food (glucose and amino acids) and molecules from air (oxygen) in its cells.

Metabolism Lesson 1.3

Metabolism Review

​Metabolism Simulation

For homework, you were tasked to run a simulation to see how diet affects the number of molecules getting to the cells.

Metabolism Review

Subject: Elisa Rodriguez As you know, we are trying to diagnose why Elisa Rodriguez is so tired. We are running some tests on her, and we also asked her to keep journals to record her eating and sleeping patterns. We want to know if the cause of her problems may be lack of sleep or not eating the right foods. We've just received the first set of evidence from Elisa's journals. We need you to evaluate the quality of this evidence to see if it can help us understand what is wrong with Elisa. If the evidence is not high enough quality, we may not be able to use it.

Metabolism Review

Conclusion Based on Evidence

It looks like lack of sleep and poor eating habits do not explain Elisa’s tiredness.

Going forward, we’ll focus on whether Elisa has a medical condition that could be preventing the necessary molecules from getting to her cells. This might explain why she feels so tired.
