Seventh graders learn about John Kellerman, a youngster who was born with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome. They learn how alcohol and pregnancy doesn't mix.

Ninth graders construct and conduct a laboratory experiment illustrating the transfer of mutations. They compare and contrast natural selection in organisms with long and short reproductive cycles.

Tenth graders study how cells and organisms acquire and release energy through photosynthesis and cellular respiration. They explain that living organisms use matter and energy to synthesize a variety of organic molecules and they will...

In this human body worksheet, students will review the characteristics of the body systems: skeletal, circulatory, muscular, digestive, urinary, endocrine, reproductive, lymphatic, and respiratory systems. This worksheet has 12 fill in...

Pupils explain the difference between dominant and recessive genes, identify what causes differences in the traits of parents and their offspring, and explain how sex is determined. They will also improve their reading and comprehension...

Fifth graders observe a dry piece of bread and a damp piece of bread in two separate sealed bags that have been sitting for several days that have been labeled. The observe the mold with a hand lens and record findings in their science...

In this English activity, students read "Laboratory-Created Eggs and Sperm," and then respond to 47 fill in the blank, 7 short answer, 20 matching, and 8 true or false questions about the selection.

Students read, write and reflect on Science articles, this approach will promote both literacy and critical thinking skills. Critical thinking skills learned in the science classroom from these activities will impact students in many...

Through informational text, interactive simulations, and step-through animations, students discover two major processes of cell reproduction; mitosis and meiosis.

This animated explanation introduces the concept of mitosis by reviewing the research of Walther Flemming.

Review, identify, and describe the important steps in the cell reproduction of whitefish, onion root, and lily anther, and quiz yourself on the similarities and differences between mitosis and meiosis. A "Cell Division Construction Kit"...

This site will allow students to grasp the complex concept of meiosis by modeling the process with clay.

The steps in binary fission during asexual reproduction are explained in this resource.

This informational text breaks down the progression of meiosis into a few simple steps.

Can you identify the steps of mitosis in this video? The video shows the process of the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell dividing in real time. [0:19]
