Written for an introductory organic and biochemistry course, this exam will challenge your class. They label functional groups and stereocenters on drawings of molecules, draw structures given the name, complete drawings of chemical...

As your class views each slide, they will be introduced to the organelles and structure of the cell.  Details about structure and function are given and also some trivia about their frequency and population. There is also some...

Help young biologists piece together an understanding of cell structure with a comprehensive review worksheet. Tasking students with describing the function of the organelles found in cells and their relationship with one another,...

Students study three structures of a plant as well as their locations and functions.  In this botany instructional activity students complete several activities on plant organs and their functions.

When an organism eats, how does food become energy? Young biologists follow glucose through the process of cellular respiration to the creation of ADP using a discussion-based activity. The resource also highlights conservation of mass...

Young scientists demonstrate their understanding of cell transport on this comprehensive worksheet. Focusing on cellular structure and the different processes that allow materials to move into, out of, and throughout animal...

Blend chemistry with cooking in this exploration of polymers, carbohydrates, and food science. Experimenting with gelatin produces concrete examples of the bonding and ploymerization discussed in the lesson. Copious, comprehensive...

Magnify macromolecules for your biology class by having them answer these ten questions. They will define monomers and polymers, list monosaccharides, and analyze polysaccharides. In addition to assigning this to your biology class, you...

An informative lesson has learners read about, discuss, and study the classification, structure and importance of the following biomolecules: carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, and enzymes. 

Your class will learn all about the function of the kidney and how  it operates in animals from different habitats.  The methods of absorption, filtering and excretion are detailed and pupils will learn of the different...

In this chemistry worksheet, students identify and define various types of carbohydrates. Then they draw a Haworth projection representing monosaccharaides. Students also draw a Fischer projection to illustrate the structure of glucose.

In this organic compounds worksheet, students practice identifying chemical structures and compare sugars, starches, and lipids. This worksheet has 5 matching and 15 multiple choice questions.

In this atoms and sugar molecules worksheet, students are given the structural composition of the sugar molecule maltose. They determine the number of each type of atom in the molecule, they find the ratio of hydrogen to oxygen atoms and...

In this carbon activity, learners follow directions and use marshmallows and toothpicks to made carbon dioxide and glucose molecules. Students do this to see how carbon changes as a result of photosynthesis.

You are what you eat, as they say! Are you more starch or more protein? Young scholars use their knowledge of each component to test different foods for their content. Using multiple indicators, individuals describe the protein and...

A great review of the structure and function of carbon-based molecules important to life, especially with relevance to humans. The chemistry behind the combination of polymers and the breakdown of bonds is covered. Valuable content...

Lab groups fill a section of dialysis tubing with glucose and starch solutions and suspend it in a water bath. They use iodine as a starch indicator and a glucose test strip to find out if either of the materials crossed the selectively...

Compare and contrast macromolecules made from the same elements. Young scholars learn how the structure of a molecule has as much influence on a compound as the elements in the molecule. They experiment with molecular model kits to...

Explain, distinguish, list, and describe the structure and function of the human endocrine system. Medical school hopefuls also diagram how calcium, glucose, and osmotic levels are regulated in the blood. This instructional activity is...

Students are introduced to tree structure and use. They identify their special tree using all senses except sight. Students identify six different internal parts within a cross section of tree trunk (bark, phloem, xylem, cambium,...

Leaf structure and its specializations for photo-respiration are detailed here.  Slides provide information about Photo-respiration biochemistry and its impact.  A class learning about classic respiration will appreciate the...

In this biologically important molecules worksheet, students fill in the blank with information about carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins. Students also make notes about nucleic acids.
