Holistic Rating: In-Depth coverage of this standard.
| Pages A74-A75 provides limited coverage. Pages A104-A107 provide in-depth coverage of the standard. |
Aspects that help student learning:
Illustration and text on pages A104-107 compare photosynthesis and respiration.
Aspects that do not help student learning:

Teacher's Edition that we used cited these pages as addressing this standard, but we did not find a significant correlation:
