BIO 120 Milestone Two Guidelines and Rubric
The final project for this course is the creation of a biology presentation. For Milestone Two, you will apply the biological concepts you have studied throughout
this course in relation to your topic. You will create an outline of the biological concepts (Section III), which includes the level of organization, analysis,
relationship to topic, characteristics of life, and impact on health. This outline will be a template for the slides you create for your final presentation.
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
III. Biological Concepts
A. Level of Organization: At what level of organization does your topic impact living things? Within that scope of life, illustrate how the species and
resources are affected.
B. Analysis: Analyze three biological concepts or processes that are essential to life and pertain to your topic. For example, if your topic is
eutrophication, you might select photosynthesis as one of your biological concepts or processes to analyze.
C. Relationship to Topic: Explain how the three concepts or processes relate to your topic. For example, how are eutrophication and photosynthesis
connected?
D. Characteristics of Life: Select one biological concept or process that you analyzed and illustrate how characteristics of life are affected by the
concept or process. In other words, how is this concept or process essential to the life of the species within the ecosystem(s) you identified?
E. Impact on Health: Select one biological concept or process that you analyzed and describe its impact (both positive and negative) on human or
environmental health. Support your response with specific, real-world examples.
Guidelines for Submission: Milestone Two should be submitted as a Microsoft Word document with double spacing, 12-point Times New Roman font, and one
inch margins. Submit a minimum of one page and maximum of two pages (prompt and references not included). You will provide in-text citations as well as a
reference section with a minimum of three references in APA format.
