[Free Registration/Login Required] This flipchart is intended to introduce plant and animal cells to fifth graders. Pictures, a web link, and several opportunities for student participation are included. An end-of-lesson assessment is...

This resource describes three different types of photosynthesis that take place in plants and the plant characteristics and environmental conditions that determine which type takes place.

Transpiration is an important plant process that releases water into the air through the stomata in leaves. This resource describes the process, the role the stomata play, factors that have an impact on transpiration, and why it is so...

The uses of potassium as a human nutrient, a plant nutrient, and in different industries are described.

The structure and function of a vacuole inside a plant cell are described.
