Birds do it, bees do it ... and snails do their own strange form of it. Discover the awkward encounter between hermaphrodite snails that ultimately results in sexual reproduction. The narrator of the short video explains the purpose for...

Here's an unusual approach to ensuring the survival of a species! Introduce young biologists to the California grunion, a fish that mates on land rather than in the water. The video shows how grunion make use of time and the tide to...

Does day one of meiosis in your biology classroom make you wanna split? Get the class off to a great start using this attractive and thoughtfully worded slideshow. In addition to explaining what happens during each step of meiosis,...

Amaze classes with the fact that pruny fingers after a bath are actually the result of osmosis—thanks to the water from the tub. Using an egg, vinegar, and corn syrup, the video teaches about osmosis using an interesting demonstration....

An informative video overviews haploid versus diploid cells, how meiosis, fertilization, and mitosis all work together, how mitosis and meiosis differ in their processes and end results, and concludes with a brief discussion about...

Young entomologists explored beneficial insects and how they help control pests in the first lesson of the series. Now class members take a close look at the lacewing, which is a beneficial insect.

Learning about meiosis requires your undivided attention. The video covers meiosis including detail about all eight phases. It provides compare-and-contrast examples between meiosis and mitosis. 

If you believe hard boiling an egg to be an irreversible process, then think again! Take a few minutes to watch this fun video as it explores the process for unboiling an egg and learn about the applications this process may have in the...

It's every health and science teacher's favorite subject to cover: the reproductive system. This comprehensive lesson introduces adolescents to the reproductive anatomy of men and women with the help of a series of diagrams, discussions,...

A super cute second grade class tells us all about the life cycle of the butterfly. They read about each stage of the butterfly's life cycle in unison. The choral reading is a little hard to understand but is a great way to engage an...

Click on this video and you'll get to see the life cycle of a butterfly. Each of the four stages are shown in real-time; as a butterfly lays its eggs, caterpillars emerge from the eggs. The caterpillar cocoons itself and then changes...

Three-dimensional animation zooms in on human development as it begins in the female ovaries. The animated egg changes and forms as you watch it travel down the fallopian tube into the uterus.

A slide presentation is shown while the structures and functions of female reproduction are covered with narration. Estrogen is treated with some detail as well. Learners can easily take notes following the outline on the screen. This...

Look here for a narrative approach to cells origins and discovery by microscopes. Though it is a slightly older clip, it contains some lovely footage of cells up close. Begin with prokaryotes and move onto eukaryotes and the differences...

Watch this fun animation about "The Scrambler." She is a determined scrambled egg maker.

Sal from the Khan Academy draws an example of sexual reproduction and the chromosomes that come together from each gamete. He explains mitosis about halfway through the video, eventually showing differentiation and meiosis. Give your...

Meiosis is explained while video animation illustrates the different phases. Discuss with your biologists how meiosis is different than mitosis as you watch this clip.
