Antibody and Antibody Specificity The Egg Mishap

Human biology or genetics learners apply their knowledge to a unique situation: two newborn baby girls being possibly switched in the hospital. The engaging activity ends with a Punnett squares assignment in which pupils evaluate whether...

By following the accompanying lab sheet, groups work together in a simulation of identifying a faux fish venom and administering the appropriate antidote. They read through five, fish profiles, very professional in appearance. They...

Students solve a crime by matching a suspect's blood type to physical evidence collected at the crime scene. For this forensic science lesson, students identify the different blood types. They explain how blood tests work.

Emerging ecologists need a full understanding of life, from the inner workings of a cell to the complex relationships among organisms. This examination is meant to assess high schoolers after an entire year course on the living...

Jump into the action and help antibodies defend against an antigen attack! Investigators match antibodies with antigens to model the body's identification and recall of specific pathogens. Young biologists also recognize that each...

Flame tests determine if there is a specific metal in a chemical compound. Young forensic scientists review their understanding of flame tests and hydroxide precipitates by solving puzzles. The timed review encourages mastery.

Students conduct a series of exploration activity on how vaccines and antibodies work. In this biology lesson, students test how antigens and antibodies work in the body. They discuss the benefits of vaccines in promoting immune responses.

If you believe hard boiling an egg to be an irreversible process, then think again! Take a few minutes to watch this fun video as it explores the process for unboiling an egg and learn about the applications this process may have in the...

Students examine antigens including ones found in humans.  For this immune lesson students complete several experiments in relation to antigens and antibodies.

Young scholars comprehend the three basic steps of science: 1) Observation, 2) Statements of cause and effect (Hypotheses), and 3) Testing. By working with an egg, students are required to observe an object that is very common to them. ...
