Antibody and Antibody Specificity The Egg Mishap
Young scholars investigate a set of foods to find the presence of eggs after designing an experiment that will complete the test. They complete a test and discuss antibody-antigen specificity.

The Genetics of Antibody Diversity
Learners distinguish between the light and heavy chain sections. In this biology lesson, students simulate the DNA splicing process. They calculate antibody diversity using the information given.
Curated OER
Food Forensics: A Case of Mistaken Identity
Ninth graders explore the specific reaction between an antigen and the antibody that recognizes it. They carry out an exploratory experiment leading to the concept of specificity.

Antibodies and the Immune Response Lesson Plans - Biology Teaching Thesis
Students are introduced to bacteria and their role in biology and finishes with a lab experiment that focuses on antibiotics. They are given an overview of the important concepts involving bacteria and their potential resistance to...
Curated OER
Antigens
Students examine antigens including ones found in humans. In this immune lesson students complete several experiments in relation to antigens and antibodies.
Curated OER
Food Forensics: A Case of Mistaken Identity
Pupils develop an experiment to test a hypothesis. They use their knowledge of antigen-antibody specificity to develop a hypothesis. Students articulate that the antibody-antigen specificity is one part of the immune system. They develop...

Small Pox Scare Wks 1-2
Learners identify basic similarities and differences between B- and T-lymphocytes, stressing function, location, and role. They complete a worksheet that requires them to apply knowledge about ELISA and antibodies.
Curated OER
Student Investigation on the Immune System and Hemeagglutination
Students perform an experiment to demonstrate the principles of antibody-antigen binding, the secondary immune response, cross reactivity, and complement fixation. The materials to be used include antibodies from a rabbit that was...
Curated OER
Fighting Infection
Students study immune responses and the structures that are related to immune cells functions. In this fighting infection lesson students construct antibody complexes and model the interaction of the immune system when it is...

Don't Be a Square
If Parseltongue is a genetic trait, what is the probability a wizard will inherit the ability to speak Parseltongue? Scholars investigate magical and biological genetics with Punnett squares.
Curated OER
When Microbes Attack
Pupils study how the body defends itself against the invasion of harmful microbes and how certain types of drugs can provide assistance. They design and execute their own experiments to test whether increasing the number of types of...

Standard 4-Photosynthesis, Diseases and the Immune System
In this photosynthesis, disease and Immune System worksheet, young scholars fill in the blanks with key terms to complete sentences about the transfer of energy from the sun to plants, enzymes as catalysts in reactions, homeostasis, the...
Curated OER
You Gave Me What?
Students see how an infectious disease such as AIDS may be quickly transmitted throughout a population. They conduct a simulated transmission of an infectious disease and mathematically determine the number of possible infected individuals.

The Role of Amyloid in Alzheimer's Disease
Students explore amyloid proteins through a series of experiments. In this biology instructional activity, students explain the causes of Alzheimer's disease. They identify common symptoms related to this condition.
Curated OER
Student Investigation on the Immune System and Hemeagglutination
Students study laboratory protocol for hemagglutination experiments.
