Crime Scene Investigation
How exactly does a crime scene investigation work? The resource, a unit on criminology, covers everything from the deductive reasoning skills needed for detectives to DNA fingerprinting, all the way to how to gather evidence and bring...
Curated OER
Genetics and Molecular Biology
Students create DNA models using colored construction papers. For this biology lesson, students identify enzyme restriction sites. They model how DNA plasmids replicate when taken up by a bacterial cell.
Curated OER
The Code of Life
Students study genes, DNA and medical research. They watch "The Code of Life" video and answer discussion questions regarding the transcription and translation of DNA and how errors in these processes and mutations in DNA can produce...

Chromosomes and Genes in Action: Microviewer
In this chromosomes worksheet, students understand the make up of a DNA molecule and compare the different ways chromosomes are connected. This worksheet has 35 fill in the blank questions and 6 drawings.
Curated OER
Wolf Pack in a Bottle
Young scholars participate in an activity of a mock electrophoresis using paper chromatography to study DNA and genetic restriction mapping.
Curated OER
Labs on A Chip
Young scholars are introduced to DNA microarrays. They discuss how scientists and doctors use them and how they work. They complete a worksheet and discuss their findings.
Curated OER
Protein Factory
Learners examine protein synthesis and how DNA is transcribed. For this investigative lesson students play a role in the messenger RNA when it creates nucleotides.
Curated OER
iDNAvestigation Exploration
Pupils investigate DNA Fingerprinting techniques and applications. They participate in a scenario to analyze blood to discover who shattered a plexiglass backboards. In addition, they explain why the DNA fingerprint of blood from the...
Curated OER
What Do Genes Look Like?
Seventh graders describe the basic structure of the DNA molecule. They identify what an inherited trait is and how it can be determined by one or more genes. Finally, 7th graders identify that plant and animal cells contain several...
Curated OER
Who Stole My Salad?
Eighth graders explain how protein is made in the cell. In this biology lesson, 8th graders translate RNA and DNA using an internet database. They determine the thief based on evidence collected.
Curated OER
"Chips" Off the Old Block?
Students study using analogies between common items or occurrences and science concepts. They use the analogy of cookie recipes to that of the DNA "recipes" for living things to help us explain more about mutations.
Curated OER
Visualizing a Human Gene with Its Introns & Exons
Learners examine the entire DNA base sequence of the human adenosine deaminase gene after it is printed out from the source disk provided. The enormous length of a single gene as well as the immense difference in length between intron...
Curated OER
Human Genetics: Yes/No Exercise
For this science worksheet, students demonstrate their knowledge of human genetics by completing a Yes/No exercise. Students read the statement about genes and DNA and agree or disagree with it. No information is given on the page; prior...
Curated OER
Blood, I Presume?
Students explain the value of blood in trials. In this DNA lesson students work together to collect and share information and ideas that they come up with after learning how to distinguish blood from other stains.
Curated OER
Bacterial Transformation
Students explore DNA recombination. In this biology instructional activity, students observe the growth of microscopic species. They predict the phenotype of the transformed colonies.
Curated OER
Biology Demos
Students participate in biology demos. In this biology lesson, students explain how energy is released in the ATP cycle. They demonstrate DNA replication process.
Serendip
From Gene to Protein - Transcription and Translation
Learners identify the different steps involved in DNA transcription. In this genetics lesson, pupils complete a worksheet and model the translation process with a paper chain activity. They watch a video on sickle cell anemia and explain...
Curated OER
America's Stone Age Explorers
Students research how mitochondrial DNA is used in determining familial relationships. They complete a worksheet in which they attempt to help solve the identity of bones found in Africa.
Curated OER
Restriction Enzymes
Students explore enzymes and enzyme combinations. They examine and cut up and practice matching DNA sequences.
Curated OER
Pseudogene Suite
Students use Biology Workbench to explore DNA sequence data for the GULOP gene in humans, chimpanzees, orangutans, and crab-eating macaques and the beta globin gene and its pseduogene in humans, gorillas, and chimpanzees.
