pH Change and Brine Shrimp eggs

Students experiment with temperature and salinity to detect favorable environments for hatching brine shrimp eggs. They make some predictions about which environments will yield the most hatched brine shrimp and record the number of...

What effects do temperature and carbon dioxide levels have on the zooplankton of Antarctica? This concluding lesson plan in a short unit on climate change and the ocean helps environmental scientists answer these questions. After...

Have you ever seen an egg bounce? Three interesting and simple hands-on experiments with eggs teach basic concepts about chemical reactions. First, participants cook an egg in alcohol to learn about denaturing proteins. Then, they watch...

It's time to mix things up! Introduce biology scholars to the latest topic in marine research—invertebrates! The third installment in a five-part series of Invertebrates lessons explains the hypothesis that tiny, migrating shrimp are...

Students determine the optimal temperature at which brine shrimp eggs hatch and develop. They evaluate the changes, if any, which occur in a brine shrimp culture at various temperatures.

Tenth graders design and conduct a laboratory investigation to determine how different factors may affect the hatching and development of brine shrimp eggs.

Students determine the pH level of water and its effect on aquatic plants and brine shrimp eggs. This is a three part lesson that leads the student through the development of an understanding of water pH. They form a hypothesis and are...

In this chemistry worksheet, learners investigate the properties of egg whites and the changes in pH, temperature, and mechanical stress while performing a test for the presence of protein. They describe how they applied the biuret test...

Students explore phototaxis and geotaxis in brine shrimp. In this phototaxis and geotaxis lesson plan, students study the effects of light and gravity on brine shrimp using a test tube, a pen light and gravity. They answer questions...

Students study ocean chemistry by completing an experiment growing Artemia in different habitat conditions. In this ocean chemistry lesson, students complete an experiment raising Artemia in their classroom using a variety of pH levels....
