DNA Cut and Paste Activity

Because it is heavily focused on the contributors to DNA theory, this worksheet may be more of an enrichment than a fundamental support to your genetics curriculum. Though it does query learners about DNA structure, replication, and...

What exactly is DNA? How is it formed? What is its purpose? Mr. Anderson explains the basics of DNA using visual information, clear lecture style descriptions, and his own unique flare. Tip: After lecture send home this video to provide...

Has your class finished its unit on genetics? Use this resource to provide a quick, encompassing review. Mr. Anderson discusses DNA, RNA, nucleotides, mitosis, meiosis, diploids, haploids, gametes, gene expression, etc. Create a...

How is DNA structured? Composed of deoxyribose, phosphate, and bases, DNA seems so simple, yet it determines so much of who we are. Give your class a better understanding of their genetic makeup with this video. Part two of two.

If humans share over 99% of the same chromosomes, how are we different? There are 10 million SNPs in the human genome, accounting for most of our genetic differences. Watch this short clip to introduce your learners to SNPs, or single...

At DNA from the Beginning, choose from classical genetics, molecules of genetics, genetic organization and control. Each concept is explained through animation, an image gallery, video interviews, biographies and links.

Did you know that your DNA can be damaged tens of thousands of times per day? Learn about the ways that damage to just one strand of your DNA can be fixed, or in extreme examples, result in genetic mutation such as cancer. 

High school learners read and discuss an article about genetic ancestry and genetic ancestry testing. They complete a paper and pencil activity that mimics the function of a DNA microarray and consider the ethics of genetic testing in...

Scientists work every day to find solutions to genetic diseases. Scholars learn about the process of gene sequencing, mutations, and the results. They explore genetic diseases and therapies to intervene and help and, through case...

Microscopic images, detailed information, and illustrated diagrams help explain DNA and molecular genetics in this college-level textbook.
