Curated OER
Building a Model DNA
Pupils explain the function of DNA in the body. In this biology lesson, students build a DNA model using simple materials. They demonstrate how bases pair up in the helix.
Curated OER
Here's Looking at You
Students assess some common inherited traits which are easily observable and note their phenotype for the trait. Students compare their phenotypes to those of their parents and attempt to describe the pattern and manor of inheritance.
Curated OER
Human Inheritance
Learners analyze genetic characteristics in a given family tree through the F2 generation. Students apply prior knowledge from Gregor Mendel's study with pea plants and his Laws of Heredity to answer questions.
Curated OER
Biology Demos
Students participate in biology demos. For this biology lesson, students explain how energy is released in the ATP cycle. They demonstrate DNA replication process.
Curated OER
A Model of Morphogenesis in Drosophila Melanogaster
Students investigate the following scientific terms and ideas: rates of diffusion, the role of morphogens in the development of larva, the chemical dynamics of a cell, and the significance of embryo polarity during development.

Moore S Word Search Puzzle
For this literacy worksheet, students find the words that are in the word search puzzle that focus upon the vocabulary that is from the theme of the sheet.
Curated OER
Human genome project
Students research writings on "the book of life." Students research the human genome project. Students discover the issues of nature versus nurture are still hashed over in the scientific community.

Teaching Biotechnology With Models
Students are introduced to biotechnology by using models. The teacher uses A Sourcebook of Biotechnology Activities, Rasmussen and Matheson project co directors. One of the activities in the book is: students use a scale models to very...
Curated OER
Extraction of DNA from Onion
Students study DNA by isolating it from plant tissue. They determine the purpose of each step in the isolation procedure as it relates to the physical and biochemical characteristics of the genetic material
Curated OER
Extraction of DNA from Onion
Students experiment with DNA by isolating it from plant tissue. They investigate whole onions to prepare DNA. They complete the experiment to examine the structural characteristics of DNA.
