Cell Specialization and Differentiation
Given examples, descriptions, and illustrations, students will be able to describe the role of DNA, RNA, and environmental factors in cell differentiation.
Cell Homeostasis: Osmosis
The focus of this resource is cell homeostasis and, more specifically, osmosis. Students investigate the concept through a virtual lab, recording and analyzing data, creating sketches to represent vocabulary, and discovering the role of aquaporins in water transport through the cell membrane.
Protein Synthesis
The learner explores the structure and function of the nucleic acids and enzymes important to the process of synthesizing proteins.
Cell Comparisons
Learners compare a variety of prokaryotes and eukaryotes to determine similarities and differences among and between them.
3.04 Bar Charts
In this video, students learn about bar charts as well as how to read and construct one.
3.05 Comparing Distributions
In this video, students will compare bar charts, pie charts, and frequency tables to see differences in results.
2.01 Sample Surveys
In this video, students are introduced to surveys and the idea that substantial size and random selection are necessary for good results.
2.02 Sources of Bias in Sampling and Surveys
In this video, students learn about the bias that occurs in sampling.
2.03 Sampling Methods, Part 1
In this video, students learn various ways of obtaining sample data.
2.04 Sampling Methods, Part 2
In this video, students continue with practice problems about different sampling techniques.
2.05 Experiments vs. Observational Studies
In this video, students explore the differences between experiments and observational studies.
2.06 Three Principles of Experimental Design
In this video, students learn about replication, randomization, and control when designing and implementing an experiment.
2.07 Lurking and Confounding Variables
In this video, students learn the difference between lurking and confounding variables and how they affect results.
