Curated OER
Cell Structure
Students study plant and animal cell components.  In this cell lesson students identify parts of a cell, view a PowerPoint presentation and diagram a cell. 
Curated OER
Cell Parts
In this biology instructional activity, students read about the parts of both plant and animal cells and examine cell diagrams. They read about the function of cell parts before answering 11 online fill in the blank questions.
Curated OER
Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cells
Students compare and contrast prokaryotes and eukaryotes.  They name the organelles that are present in prokaryotes only and identify their functions.  Students label the diagrams of the prokaryotic cell and the eukaryotic cell.
Curated OER
Cell Organelles
Students explore biology by researching living cells. In this living organism instructional activity, students participate in a role-playing activity in which all the students in class form one plant cell by portraying specific parts of...
Curated OER
Cells: Nature's Building Blocks
What you will find on this page is the general outline of a unit on the use of a microscope and the structure of the cell. There is no actual educational content here, so you will need to design the details of each of the four student...
Curated OER
Comparing Plant and Animal Cells in a Venn Diagram
In this science graphic organizer worksheet, students fill in a Venn Diagram by comparing plant and animal cells. They use the words from the word bank to fill in each portion of the graphic organizer. They use words such as...
Curated OER
What is an Angiosperm?
In this plant learning exercise, high schoolers study a diagram of a magnified root cross-section. Students use this diagram to complete 2 true or false questions.

Raven Chapter 10 Guided Notes: Photosynthesis
Kim B. Foglia has designed a comprehensive series of AP biology worksheets. This one focuses learners on the progression of photosynthesis in plants. In this assignment, they identify structures and steps on high-quality diagrams, use...
Curated OER
Cell 7 Plant v Animal Cells
Students differentiate between plant and animal cells. They identify the structures central to plant cells. They complete a Venn Diagram listing the differences between animal  and plant cells.
Curated OER
Cell Structure and Function
Students identify the main ideas of different cell theories. Using a microscope, they compare and contrast the structures and functions of prokaryotes and eukaryotes. They also compare and contrast animal and plant cells and complete...
Curated OER
The Cell Cycle
In this biology worksheet, students label 9 diagrams with the correct names. They also write short answers to 6 questions that follow.
Curated OER
Functions of Leaves
The title is a little deceiving since only one of 17 slides is dedicated to the function of leaves, while the rest is dedicated to the structure. Both internal and external structure is taught with accompanying diagrams. If you are going...
Curated OER
Cells
Students explore the types of cells and their appropriate function.  After observing a PowerPoint presentation, students draw diagrams of cells.  Using a specified website, students identify parts of plant and animal cells.  They answer...
Curated OER
Cell Factory
Students examine the basic structures and functions of cells. They design and construct a factory cell model where each factory part corresponds to a cell part.
Biology Junction
Nonvascular and Simple Vascular Plants: Mosses to Ferns
Sometimes conservationists use specific plants to prevent erosion or fight invasive species. A 50-slide presentation covers both nonvascular and vascular plants. It discusses the plants, their stages and life cycles, reproduction, uses,...
Curated OER
Cell Organization
In this cell organization worksheet, 9th graders complete the table with each correct cell part and function for that particular part. Then they label the animal cell and the plant cell diagrams with each cell part.
Curated OER
Introductory Bacteria and Virus Worksheet
Compare and contrast eukaryotes, prokaryotes, and viruses with a chart and a Venn diagram. Beginning microbiologists consider motility, reproductive ability, DNA content, and the presence of organelles. They write short answers to...
Curated OER
Reviewing Mitosis/Mitosis
There are technically two presentations in this collection of slides. The first presentation is a single-slide comparison of plant cell division and animal cell division. The second focuses on the steps of meiosis and the genetic...
Curated OER
Organizing Organs
Fifth graders research plant and animals cells and create a Venn Diagram to show the similarities and differences.
Curated OER
Unit on Developing a Basic Understanding of Plants
Fifth graders study the parts of a plant, their life cycles, and how to care for them in this unit.
Curated OER
Parts of the Seed
In this biology worksheet, students read about the parts of plant seeds and look at a seed diagram. They read about the roots, endosperm, embryo, and the process of germination. They answer 8 online multiple choice questions based on the...
Curated OER
The Effects of Osmotic Balance and Imbalance In Living Cells
High schoolers investigate osmotic balance in living cells. In this osmotic balance lesson plan, students use elodea leaves to study the effects of salt solutions on the cell. They compare the changes in an elodea leaf with salt water on...
Curated OER
Amoeba
In this amoeba worksheet, high schoolers read about the structures of the amoeba and their functions. They answer twelve questions about the amoeba and color given structures on a diagram of an amoeba.
Curated OER
Cell Reviews
High schoolers draw cells, make a cell, and list organelles in plant and animal cells. In this cells lesson plan, students create edible cells.
