DNA Replication: Copying the Molecule of Life
Your DNA needs to be in every cell in your body, so what happens when cells divide? How does each new cell retain all of the genetic information? The DNA is able to copy itself through a process called replication. Let's go through the...

Laboratory Experiments in Psychology
This film uses some famous psychological experiments (such as Bandura's BoBo doll and Loftus's Eyewitness Testimony) to show, rather than simply tell, students: what is meant by the experimental method in psychology, how laboratory...
