Use models to illustrate how human reproduction and development maintains continuity of life.
Clarification statement: Emphasis is on structures and function of human reproductive systems, interactions with other human body systems, embryonic development, and influences of environmental factors on development.
Assessment boundary: Assessment does not include the details of hormonal regulation or stages of embryonic development.
Note: this is a NYSED-specific performance expectation that is different from the Next Generation Science Standards.
Performance Level Descriptions
PLDs communicate the knowledge and skills expected of students to demonstrate proficiency in each Learning Standard. NYS assessments classify student performance into one of five levels.
Resources
Examples and discussion of resources for the learning, teaching, and assessment of HS-LS1-8.

Assessment
What assessment of HS-LS1-8 might look like on a NY state exam.

NGSS Dimensions
Performance expectation HS-LS1-8 was developed using the following elements from the NRC document A Framework for K-12 Science Education:
- Developing and Using Models
- Use a model based on evidence to illustrate the relationships between systems or between components of a system.
- LS1.A: Structure and Function
- (NYSED) The structures and functions of the human female reproductive system produce gametes in ovaries, allowing for internal fertilization, support the internal development of the embryo and fetus in the uterus, and provide essential materials through the placenta, and nutrition through milk for the newborn. The structures and functions of the human male reproductive system produces gametes in testes and make possible the delivery of these gametes for fertilization.
- Systems and System Models
- 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.
