Fantastic site which uses science to answer many Global Warming skeptics arguments. Good to give to students to analyse data and see for themselves what the data shows. Every student can present on a different myth.
"Two karyotypes will be created, the first represents a normal human karyotype of a male or a female, the second represents an abnormal karyotype. You will then compare and diagnose the abnormality present in the patient of the second karyotype."
"This online ecology practical resource is designed to give students an opportunity to see how systematic sampling can be used to
investigate changes in species richness across a footpath
the distribution of species across a footpath
These online exercises are not intended as a substitute for practical field work. They do however, provide an opportunity to introduce fieldwork sampling ideas and some basic ecological principles in the classroom before going out into the field."
4 minute video outlining the importance of finding evidence to disprove a rule rather than reinforce a rule you already know. Very well done, and great for teaching the nature of science.
"Caption: Enzymes: This clip introduces enzymes as catalysts through their action on substrates that bind to their active sites. The concepts of shape, "lock-in-key" specificity, and the induced-fit binding of the substrate are discussed. Run time: 2:20"
You are a carbon atom.
For millions of years you were underground in fossil fuels. Now, you have been released into the atmosphere as humans burn fuels. Did you know that 5000 megatons of carbon are released into the atmosphere as fossil fuels are burned each year?
In this game, you will travel the carbon cycle. Your objective is to get to all the places that carbon is stored along this map. Earn extra points by correctly answering the carbon challenge questions at the yellow stars.
A 10 minute video which explains and shows natural selection of dark fur in desert mice as a result of a change in the environment. It covers random mutations in genes, selection and inheritance. Recommended.
