How diverse are living things? Individuals explore topics such as cells as the foundation for life, cell division and genetics, molecular biology, and animal reproduction using an open resource Biology textbook. They learn key terms...

Fourth graders create cartoon characters which compare and contrast two types of cells: nerve and muscle. Cartoon characters show how these two cells are similar, how they are different, and the relationship between the two cell types.

Fifth graders study the structures of a plant cell and animal cell. They create a graphic organizer and a food model. Finally, they write an essay comparing and contrasting plant and animal cells.

In this comparing plant cells and animal cells learning exercise, students view cells from their cheeks and cells from elodea. A Venn diagram reveals similarities and differences between the cells.

Students understand how various cell parts function and how they are related to the genetic process by creating a model and symbol to depict the function of the cell parts. They research a cell part to determine function and then cut...

In this biology worksheet, 9th graders identify and explain what cell stay in inter-phase. Then they describe which stage of cell is the shortest and determine why that is true. Students also explain the process of mitosis.

Students compare and contrast the characteristics of robots and cells. In this biology lesson, students examine the parts and function of cell organelles. They create a visual representation of their cell/robot analogy.

In this cell reproduction worksheet, learners will review the 5 phases of the cell cycle: telophase, interphase, prophase, metaphase, and anaphase. Students will use the cell cycle diagram to complete 5 short answer questions.

With a multitude of questions, this worksheet offers students the opportunity to review their knowledge about the cell cycle. Question types include true/false, word bank, and completing a table about the differences between interphase...

For this cells worksheet, students review the different types of cells. Students identify the organelles found in an animal cell and determine the function of these organelles. This worksheet has 14 matching, 6 fill in the blank, and 5...

Students study and identify the structures and functions of animal cells.

Fifth graders are introduced to the text, LITERACY LINE viewing the contents page. They review the definition of explanatory writing; discussing the features used and complete a KWL chart to identify what they already know about how a...

In this cell energy learning exercise, students answer questions about the processes of photosynthesis and cellular respiration. They compare the two using a Venn diagram.

A solid review of the excretion system that presents diagrams and asks learners to name the labelled parts or to identify which parts perform the particular jobs stated.

If the only support you are in search of is lists of vocabulary terms, this presentation may fit the bill. Slides simply list terminology. These categories are included: hierarchy of structural organization, cell functions, cell...

Give this summary of 16 pages of a text to your class to deepen understanding of cell permeability, diffusion, ions, and more. The handout portion includes vocabulary clarifications, detailed color diagrams, and important information;...

Human biology beginners label colorful diagrams of the neuron, the reflex pathway, and the brain. They list steps in the action potential process, and describe several different neurotransmitters. This worksheet guides learners through...

Physical and biological factors affect everyday living. Scholars explore electromagnetic forces, motion, the rock cycle, and geological changes. They examine cells as the building blocks of life and how organisms reproduce using images...

In this electrochemistry worksheet, students determine the voltage of a cell based on the reduction potentials. Students write a condensed cell diagram and the oxidation half reaction for the cell. This worksheet has 30 problems to solve.

In this electrochemistry learning exercise, learners write the cell diagram for given half-cells. This learning exercise has 3 problems to solve.

In this electrochemistry worksheet, students write cell diagrams and determine if reactions are spontaneous. Students rank ions from strongest to weakest oxidizing agents. This worksheet has 7 problems to solve.

Sixth graders study living cells and their functioning units.  In this cell lesson students color cell diagrams, answer questions and discuss the differences between plant and animal cells. 

Through an informative WebQuest and group work, learners explore the human body and cell structure. They create a cell diagram, research a disease, write a letter explaining the causes of human disease, and work in small groups to create...

Young scholars differentiate between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. They examine pictures of prokaryotes and eukaryotes and write down the differences between the two. They complete a Venn Diagram on the cells.
