Collect Your Own DNA
Pupils examine DNA and its location throughout the body. In this DNA activity students collect and observe their own DNA and see that DNA can be extracted from any cell in the body.
Curated OER
DNA Isolation from Plant Tissue
Young scholars perform an experiment to extract and observe DNA from plant Tissue. They read about the procedure and relate it to the procedure used to isolate DNA from an endangered plant species. This is lesson three in a nine lesson...
Curated OER
DNA: The Search for the Genetic Material
Students study the history of DNA and how to extract it. In this genetic lesson students complete a DNA experiment using bacteria.
