High schoolers participate in biology demos. In this biology lesson, students explain how energy is released in the ATP cycle. They demonstrate DNA replication process.

High schoolers investigate genomic research being done and its potential for understanding, treating, and possibly curing human genetic conditions. The potential of proteomic research as a companion to the work being done with genomics...

In this biology worksheet, students identify and locate various vocabulary terms found in a biology lesson. There are 39 biology terms located in the word search.

Twelfth graders research facts about the Human Genome Project. In this biology lesson, 12th graders brainstorm on the pros and cons of this project. They complete the jigsaw puzzle and present their findings in class.

In this science activity, students demonstrate basic knowledge of human genetics by completing 6 sentences. There is no information on the page but a word bank is provided.

Students identify chromosome pairs based upon band patterns and location of centromere. They order chromosome pairs based upon size. Students differentiate normal karyotypes from abnormal karyotypes. They correctly record karyotype...

A short reading is accompanied by a quiz in a resource describing the differences between identical and fraternal twins. The quiz is mostly true/false and would make an excellent anticipatory set to get kids thinking about what they know...

They say that a dog is a man's best friend. Why is that? Discuss with your class why people like pets and the responsibilities with owning one. They read an article about pet behavior and write a short essay comparing one of their...

In this biology worksheet, students identify and locate various vocabulary terms related to the cells of the body. There are 32 biology terms located in the word search.

In this biology activity, learners complete a crossword puzzle with 35 questions on protein synthesis. They identify the different parts of the cell involved in the process.

Students investigate the progression of discoveries that have led to the genetics knowledge that scientists currently have. They determine how genetic experiments disproved previous theories on inheritance.

Bright slides with clear diagrams will provide students with a useful, concise summary about gene coding for specific proteins and their regulation.

In this biology worksheet learners map out and describe the process of mitosis for the nine questions. The last four questions are several combined in each.

Make reviewing evolution, cell division, genetics, cell structure, and scientific method more fun! Science Jeopardy allows teams to choose a category for the question they will address. If you complete the entire game, learners will have...

Young scholars explore the concept of extinction by studying dinosaurs. In this dinosaur activity, students distinguish between extinct creatures and those that still exist.

Although these slides are text rich, the summaries of prokaryote characteristics will be useful. There are diagrams of preferred cell conditions and your students will find all the basic definitions of structure and functions...

In this cell cycle worksheet, students fill in the blank with information about the cycle of a cell. Students sketch several drawings of different phases in the cell cycle.

Students navigate the National Center for Biological Information (NCBI) website and BLAST program to conduct a variety of biological assignments.

Students develop an understanding of how innate and learned behaviors and the environment determine behavior. They see how a variety of factors affects our pet's behavior-including species-specific traits, the environment, training, and...

Tenth graders lake a karyotype from their chromosomes and diagnose the genetic problem (if there is one).

Seventh graders discuss traits, traits that are inherited and how genes and chromosomes carry the code for traits. They research genetic disorders and their link to chromosome abnormalites and write a report on their findings. which...

Students explore ways to turn back the genetic clock. They explore cells and mitosis. Students participate in an activity to create a flip book that will animate the process of mitosis. They explain each stage of mitosis.

In this genetics vocabulary instructional activity, students answer 13 multiple choice questions about the structure and function of genes.

In this evolution worksheet, students will determine the evolutionary relationships among organisms using cladograms and phylogenetic diagrams. This worksheet has 13 short answer questions and 3 multiple choice questions.
