This laboratory exercise is designed to show learners how DNA can easily be extracted from onion cells. It includes an optional test for the presence of DNA.

In this activity, learners use edible models of the DNA molecule to transcribe an mRNA sequence, and then translate it into a protein.

This laboratory exercise is designed to show learners how DNA can easily be extracted from yeast using simple materials.

This laboratory exercise is designed to show learners how DNA can easily be extracted from wheat germ using simple materials.

This laboratory exercise is designed to show learners how DNA can easily be extracted from onion cells using simple materials.

This laboratory exercise is designed to show learners how DNA can be extracted from a chunk of thymus (sweetbread) or liver.

This laboratory exercise is designed to show learners how DNA can easily be extracted from lima bean bacteria. This experiment requires the use of a centrifuge (not included in cost of materials).

In this activity, learners follow step-by-step instructions to build a gel electrophoresis chamber using inexpensive materials from local hardware and electronic stores.

In this activity, learners construct a 3-D paper model depicting how histone, acetyl and methyl molecules control access to DNA and affect gene DNA expression.

In this activity, learners build edible models of DNA, while learning basic DNA structure and the rules of base pairing.

In this activity, learners take on the role of various parts of the cell in order to model the process of protein synthesis.

In this activity, learners model directed evolution by making paper fly. Learners construct and fly paper airplanes.

The purpose of this plant biotechnology activity is to demonstrate the effect of changes in the environment on the growth and fertility of landscape grasses and crop grasses such as wheat and rice.
