USING YEAST AS AN ULTRAVIOLET LIGHT MEASUREMENT TOOL
High schoolers realize the importance of organisms as standards of measurement and experimentation.The first lab is a simple survival curve that demonstrates the effects of UV light on cells. The second lab looks at repair mechanisms of...
Curated OER
Time Conceptualization
Students relate the number and length of generations in their living family members to the number of generations that have passed since specific events in recorded history. They then apply this time conceptualization to the number of...
