In this cell structure learning exercise, students review the structure and function of eukaryotic cells. Students also compare and contrast an animal cell with a plant cell. This learning exercise has 15 fill in the blank, 8 true or...

Pupils study the basic function of DNA and then extract it from strawberries. In this DNA extraction lesson students examine DNA and see why the extraction of it is so important to scientists. 

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.

In this cell division worksheet, students answer 13 multiple choice questions based on the process of mitosis and meiosis. Included are questions about the stages of cell division as well as the structures involved.

Trace the sequential process of the developing theories of atomic structure in the early 20th century, show, in historical development, how scientists "know" things, how experiments are set up and how interpretations are drawn from them,...

Students define the key terms that are the structure and function of DNA. In this genetics lesson students complete a lab activity in which they construct a model DNA structure.

In this cells worksheet, students will review cell characteristics and structure and different types of cells and what role they play in the body. Students will investigate experimental results of the influence of sucrose on the...

The billions of cells that make up all living things are the focus of this resource. Understanding the differences between the cells that make up plants and animals is an important distinction; it is covered here quite-well. Some...

Find out just how enticing learning about neurons can be by creating models with sugar cookies, icing, and candy. With great background information for you and an easy procedure for the kids, studying cells has never been more fun or...

Students compare the organelles present in plant and animal cells. In this biology lesson, students create an analogy to easily remember their assigned organelles. They also research their function and write a creative story.

Students use various snacks to make large models of human cells. Items such as gumballs, gummy worms, and jelly beans represent the nucleus, golgi bodies, and mitochondria. As each piece of candy is added, the teacher explains what it...

In this sponges worksheet, students read the information about sponges. Students answer the provided questions about the reading passage. Students color the illustration at the bottom of the page.

In this biology learning exercise, students complete a crossword puzzle with 39 questions on taxonomy. They identify the different classification systems used in biology.

In this protein synthesis worksheet, students answer 14 short answer questions about the process of making proteins from DNA.

In this DNA worksheet, students review the transcription and translation processes. Students label and color the different parts of a DNA strand. This worksheet has 7 fill in the blank questions.

Students demonstrate a working knowledge of cell interactions such as DNA replication, protein synthesis (transcription and translation), through active participation in a cooperative group.

Middle schoolers identify parts of plant and animal cells and describe the functions of each part. They distinguish between plant and animal cells. After a lecture/demo, students perform experiments which help them construct models of...

Students identify the different parts of the cells and their functions. For this biology lesson, students create an analogy of a cell and its organelles. They make a poster and present it to class.

Students explain the function of DNA in the body. In this biology lesson, students build a DNA model using simple materials. They demonstrate how bases pair up in the helix.

High schoolers conduct a series of activities to explore the nature of cells. In this biology lesson plan, students observe plant and animal cells under the microscope and compare them. They differentiate osmosis and diffusion.

Learners correlate a series of items with the organelles of a cell. They compare the school to a cell, and create a drawing that compares the cell structure with their home.

Fifth graders examine plant and animal cells. In this plant and animal cell lesson, 5th graders define what cells are, label their parts, and describe how plant and animal cells are different. They observe cells at a number of web sites,...

Young scholars create a brochure to entice readers to 'visit' their cell organelles and functions 'amusement park'. Students use humor and 'roadside attractions' for an inspiration - 'visit the ribosomes to watch proteins synthesized...

In this chemistry review worksheet, students answer and solve 95 questions about chemical reactions, hydrocarbons, functional groups, moles, acids and bases and solutions.
