The Water Drop Project
Students discover the microorganisms that live in water. They study the structures and life functions of protists and recognize the similarities between them and multicellular organisms.
Curated OER
Hierarchy Theory: An Inquiry Approach
Students explain how the levels of organization of multicellular organisms compare to unicellular organisms. They define hierarchy and hierarchy theory and draw a diagram that demonstrates both of these concepts
