Young scientists explore nature's water treatment plants in this simple science demonstration. By placing a stalk of celery in a cup of water mixed with food coloring, children are able to observe how plants absorb nutrients and...

More than 200,000 invertebrate species and around 2,000 vertebrate species act as pollinators. The sixth lesson in a series of 10 encourages scholars to first identify both male and female flowering plants. Next, they bag and tag five...

How can flowers be pollinated if they can't move? Explore the world of seeds and plant life with an assignment about pollination. Kids read two fact sheets about the process of pollination, and then complete activities about color keys,...

A queen bee may lay between 600-1,500 eggs per day during her three to four year reign. This fact and many others are contained in a video that shows scholars how bees turn nectar from flowers into honey, traveling thousands of miles to...

Plants react to many different stimuli, but do they think? After many years, scientists now have a definite answer. A video shares the theories and facts as part of a larger biology playlist. From plants listening to music to plants...

We know plants assist in the water cycle, but how do plants get water from the ground into the air? Through a series of demonstrations or labs, scholars observe the movement of water through plants. They microscopically view the cells...

How do roots find nutrients? The PBS video, part of a series on food science, describes experiments proving roots grow specifically toward nutrients in the soil. A theory of how roots know in which direction to grow provides an...
