lots of resources to explore here but I need more timeto dig around. The Carbon cycle is a click & read not a real simulation. But I do think there is value in here, perhaps with the GMO stuff. I have not tagged it to show on the website, I think I would find specific sites for this.

A nice site for hormones. The similarity between oxytocin and adh is really cool! This would be good to look at for topic 7 too.

David, The activity looks fine. The worksheet takes a while to open, because it was the first time for me to use the Word web thing. What is the advantage of the word web thing over a word doc in the file manager? I think I know but want to hear from you. Perhaps the teacher notes should say something about not using this activity for assessment as the data collection and processing are given.
