Students conduct various experiments on glucose. In this biology lesson, students differentiate the process of diffusion and osmosis. They test different foods for the presence of glucose and starch.

Students explore disease and its relationship to history and literature. They investigate issues that range from early biological warfare and historical disease treatments, to observing today's race for the cure against current emerging...

For this biology worksheet, learners look for the answers to how to classify animals. They specifically focus upon the vertebrates while differentiating the characteristics from other organisms.

Students explore biology by identifying a diagram. In this cell anatomy lesson, students read a story about archeology and conduct a fictitious archeology dig in class in which they search for animal cells. Students define a list of...

Students conduct a variety of experiments on photosynthesis. In this biology lesson plan, students identify the factors required for the process to occur. They perform computerized experiments to test the amount of oxygen produced when...

High schoolers study the characteristics of yeasts. In this biology lesson plan, students conduct experiments to measure yeast respiration. They discuss the favorable conditions needed for growing them.

Young scholars test the factors that influence the rate at which a virus spreads through a population. They complete a lab activity then discuss data collected and review and answer a set of questions.

Learners experiment with acids and bases using technology-based "probe-ware", computers, and household products in this exciting biology/chemistry instructional activity. The instructional activity was written for an advanced 6th grade...

Students create a postcard about endangered species. In this biology activity, students identify how human activities endanger other species. They research and recommend ways to help protect them.

Students explain the importance of chlorophyll in plants. In this biology lesson, students extract chlorophyll from different plant sources using chromatography. They discover the different factors needed for photosynthesis to take place.

Students identify the different leaf pigments and colors. In this biology lesson, students perform chromatography to separate them. They explain how light affects green leaf colors and causes falling leaves in autumn.

Students observe seeds growth and examine the different parts of the seedling. In this biology lesson plan, students compare the growth of seeds planted in soil and in hydroponics. They record their observations in their science journal...

Students identify different plant hormones and explain their function in plant development. In this biology lesson, students investigate how IAA affect root growth. They study the history of auxin discovery.

Students conduct various experiments to investigate plant transpiration. In this biology instructional activity, students explain how this process helps maintain the hydrologic cycle. They measure the rate of water loss in plants using a...

Students explore amyloid proteins through a series of experiments. In this biology lesson plan, students explain the causes of Alzheimer's disease. They identify common symptoms related to this condition.

Students conduct a series of exploration activity on how vaccines and antibodies work. In this biology lesson, students test how antigens and antibodies work in the body. They discuss the benefits of vaccines in promoting immune responses.

Students explore how PCR works through various activities. In this biology lesson, students explain how PCR generate copies of DNA. They simulate the process using an online interactive website.

Learners conduct a variety of experiments to explore protein. In this biology lesson, students solve a mystery by testing for the presence of glucose, protein starch and triglycerides. They explain how DNA transcription and translation...

Students differentiate chemiluminescence from bioluminescence. In this biology lesson, students explain how fireflies and other animals emit light. They discuss the applications of engineered bioluminescence.

Students conduct an experiment to observe photolysis in the lab. In this chemistry lesson plan, students explain the mechanism behind photolysis. They test the impact of a non-toxic marker to plant metabolism.

Elementary life science explorers compare and contrast aquatic and terrestrial plants (elodea and soybeans) in a Venn diagram. Some background information is provided to support direct instruction, and general instructions are provided...

Students create PowerPoint presentation on the topic they researched. In this biology lesson, students fill out a storyboard about their topic. They share their project in class.

Students prepare PowerPoint presentation on DNA and cells. In this biology lesson, students create a storyboard of their presentation. They share the finished project in class. 

Students explore difficult-to-understand topics in biology. In this biology lesson, students participate in a series of demonstration on genetics, evolution and many others to gain insight on these topics. They write a report after the...
