Cell-to-Cell

Teacher's notes, a materials list, detailed procedure, tips, and extension ideas are all included to make teaching this lesson on photovoltaic cells a sunny spot in your day! After some brief background reading, physical science...

A neat lab sheet introduces cell biologists to the general structure of both animal and plant cells. They draw and label what they observe under high power. You will need to provide slides of cheek cells, onion cells, Elodea, and Volvox....

Energize the cells of young biologists with an edible life science activity. Engaging students in exploring the inner workings of plant and animal cells, this activity involves using colored jello and various sweet and tasty treats to...

Does anyone remember seeing the movie Fantastic Voyage? This app is reminiscent of that imaginary journey through the human body, but in this case, venture even further into individual cells!

Throw your dendrites in the air and wave 'em like you just don't care! An excellent video in the Fuse School playlist explains the parts and functions of cells. It describes their structures, functions, and specialties.

The third in a series of 10 STEM project-based lessons focuses on cells types, functions, and physiology. Through research, discussions, writings, and presentations, groups learn about the difference between plant and animal cells, the...

Donate old socks for science! Young biologists model mitosis and meiosis, using socks as chromosomes and a balloon as a nucleus. This ingenious idea for modeling cell division will be more memorable to your young biologists than any set...

Adult humans are made of around 40 trillion cells that can't be seen these without some really powerful microscopes! Learners tour both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, learning how their structures are similar and different, and then...

Being able to absorb the abilities of other life forms may seem like something taken from a superhero movie, but sometimes reality is stranger than fiction. Join the narrator as he takes viewers back billions of years to investigate how...

It is hard to believe a 300-foot-tall Redwood tree began as a single cell hundreds of years ago. How did it grow so large? Observe how different kinds of cells (bacteria, sex cells, and eukaryotic cells) reproduce or make more cells for...
