Enzyme Lab
Students examine the effects of specific enzymes on samples of liver tissue, muscle tissue (chicken), apples, and potatoes.
Curated OER
Molecular Modeling
Students recognize that the fundamental building block of all organic and inorganic matter is the atom. They construct models of a sugar, fatty acid, amino acid and nucleic acid and describe their roles.
Curated OER
Genetics DNA Replication
Learners explore DNA replication. Beginning with a teacher led discussion, students examine inherited information, genes, and Deoxyribose Nucleic Acid (DNA). As the teacher models the structures of DNA, tells about the contributions of...
Curated OER
The Chemicals of Living Cells
Designed to be a study guide or self assessment for high school biologists, the learning exercise has good questions about cell chemistry, but would need to be reformatted if you want your kids to write their answers on the paper. There...

Lesson 3: Nutrition, Labeling and Packaging
Students explore basic nutrition concepts to help them select healthy diet, evaluate food intake, discuss major food labeling issues, design labels for food products, examine history of food packaging development and how packaging...
Curated OER
Eukaryotic Cell Structure
In this biology worksheet, learners complete 20 fill in the blank questions about eukaryotic cells. They identify the parts and functions of cell organelles.
Curated OER
What's Outside the Cell Membrane ?
Students examine the cell coats (matrix) of chondrocytes and fibroblasts and observe these cells actively exclude particles which are released around them. They observe the function of the cell membrane as a gatekeeper as it prevents...
