Diversity And Adaptations Of Organisms
Seventh graders demonstrate the processes of science by posing questions and investigating phenomena through language, methods and instruments of science. They study the body features or systems of several animals.
Curated OER
Respiratory System: Breathing
For this respiratory system: breathing worksheet, students read through the given notes. Students then compare the different respiratory systems with that of an earthworm, fish, insect, and frog.
Curated OER
A Model of Morphogenesis in Drosophila Melanogaster
Pupils 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.
Curated OER
Tissues
For this tissue worksheet, high schoolers are given notes on 6 types of epithelial tissues, 10 examples of connective tissue, three types of muscular tissue and the components of nerve tissue.
Curated OER
Energy, Matter, and Organization
Tenth graders review the Energy, Matter, and Organization unit. They have one week to complete an essay. Students must submit a concept map or drawing. The activity is introduces by reading a short story line which presents a simple...
Curated OER
Ethyl Alcohol
For this ethyl alcohol worksheet, high schoolers read about the characteristics of ethanol including the effects it has on the body when ingested and digested. This worksheet has 2 short answer questions.

Osmosis Demonstration Lab
Even though they were written for upper-level high schoolers or college pupils, the labs herein are possible to use even in middle school. In the activity, kids observe osmosis in both potatoes and elodea plants, then record and graph...
Curated OER
Hierarchy Theory and Biotic Hierarchy
Learners examine the hierarchy theory and biotic organization by playing a teacher-created card game matching groups of items, such as organelles, in suits of four. They discuss the reasons for their hierarchical organization of the...
Curated OER
Osmosis
Fifth graders explore osmosis as they watch organisms divide. In this organism lesson, 5th graders use potatoes to experiment with the effects of salty water in the body. Students discuss what osmosis is and record what...
Curated OER
Take Deep Breath
Fifth graders become familiar with how the diaphragm expands to draw air into our lungs and contracts to exhale carbon dioxide. They also label the major parts of the respiratory system through the use of interactive Internet research...
Curated OER
Early Filtrate Functioning
In this biology learning exercise, learners look at the function of filtering in the nephron of the kidneys and the biochemistry is emphasized.

Curated OER
Homeostasis and the Plasma Membrane
In this homeostasis and plasma membrane worksheet, 9th graders identify and solve 11 different vocabulary terms and definitions. They review the definitions of the words listed and then use the clues to complete the puzzle shown....
Curated OER
Discovering the Structure of the Atom
Students investigate atomic and nuclear structure of matter by researching historical atomic theories. Students examine Rutherford's studies and discover that many scientific conclusions change over time as new data is collected.
Curated OER
Moore S Word Search Puzzle
In 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.

Biology Mad: Getting in and Out of Cells [Pdf]
This seven-page Biology course handout gives a detailed explanation, accompanied by many illustrations, of the various processes by which substances travel across the membranes of cells.
BBC
Bbc: Gcse Bitesize: Supplying the Cell
For an organism to function, substances must move into and out of cells. Three processes contribute to this movement - diffusion, osmosis and active transport. Diffusion is the process by which useful materials and waste products move in...
