Disruptions of the Cell Cycle: Cancer
Given illustrations or descriptions, students will identify disruptions of the cell cycle that lead to diseases such as cancer.
Taxonomy Standards
Given examples, students will recognize the importance of taxonomy to the scientific community.
Taxonomy: Major Groups
Given illustrations or descriptions, students will determine the classification of organisms into domains and kingdoms.
Homeostasis: Ecological Systems
Given images, videos, or scenarios, identify and describe the responses of organisms, populations, and communities to various changes in their external environment.
Biological Systems: Homeostasis
Identify and describe internal feedback mechanisms involved in maintaining homeostasis given scenarios, illustrations, or descriptions.
Relationships Between Organisms: Food Chains, Webs, and Pyramids
Given illustrations, students will analyze the flow of matter and energy in food chains, food webs, and ecological pyramids.
Organisms' Adaptations
Given scenarios, illustrations. or descriptions, the student will compare variations and adaptations of organisms in different ecosystems.
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.
Conservation of Momentum
This resource was created to support TEKS IPC(4)(E).
Equipment for Biology
Given investigation scenarios, students will determine the equipment that best fits the procedure.
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.
