Ninth graders evaluate the use of radiation in medical procedures. In this biology lesson students compare and contrast meiosis and mitosis. They research the different applications of radiation.
Curated OER
Watershed Awareness
Students investigate the relationship between upstream influences in their watershed and the watershed's estuary. They apply the scientific process to test a hypothesis while examining the impact of upland activities on estuaries.
Curated OER
The Cloning of Plasmid and Spinach DNA
Students will first extract genomic DNA from spinach and perform a restriction enzyme digestion on both the spinach DNA and the plasmid using the same restriction enzyme. They then ligate the cut plasmid DNA with the cut spinach DNA in...
Curated OER
Gene Control in Prokaryotes
In this gene control activity, learners use the example of the lactose operon structure to describe what happens when this structure is absent or mutated. This activity has 21 fill in the blank statements.
Curated OER
Food Poisoning
Students study the bacteria that cause food poisoning using a written resource. They complete a research worksheet entitled, "America's Most Wanted." Next, they create a short skit about the causes, symptoms, prevention, and other...
Curated OER
Beta-Oxidation of Unsaturated Fatty Acids
Students work in small groups to determine the amount of protein contained in an unknown sample. They conduct the experiment, plot the points of absorbency, and present their findings to the class.
Curated OER
How is Foreign DNA Inserted into Organisms During the Genetic Engineering of Crops?
Students examine the positive benefits and negative consequences of genetically modified organisms following a lecture covering key biotech concepts and techniques. Students then conduct and experiment comparing the travel rate of...
Curated OER
Lights On - We Have A Quorum
Students explore basic bacteriological techniques. They investigate cell to cell communication and become aware of the environmental and evolutionary implications of this communication.
Curated OER
Superbugs and Antibiotic Resistance
Students complete experiments on antibiotics and antimicrobials. In groups, they explain how antibiotics affect the evolution of microorganisms. They test various types of bacteria to discover how much resistance they have to antibiotics.
Curated OER
"From farm to plate"
Students identify sources of food and the bacteria associated with them. They comprehend how bacteria in the food chain can cause disease. Students comprehend the importance of proper food-hygiene practices throughout the many stages of...
Curated OER
BACTERIAL GROWTH ON FOOD
Students address the question of the value of refrigeration in keeping food (chicken) from "spoiling". They experiment with aseptic technique skills in handling sterile water and some type of quoting system.
Curated OER
DNA Transformation of Bacteria - Red Colony
Students perform experiments with bacteria. They discover that genes can be transferred from one bacteria to another on the plasmid by a transformation. Over a two day period, students follow detailed instructions in order to observe...
