In this food science activity, learners explore digestion and proteins by observing the action of meat tenderizer on luncheon meat.

In this neuroscience activity, learners conduct a simulation to demonstrate how multiple incoming signals influence the action of neurons.

In this genetics activity, learners extract DNA from an onion, using detergent solution, a food processor, and rubbing alcohol. They will also discuss genetic engineering of plants.

In this activity, learners explore chemiluminescence and fluorescence. Learners examine 3 different solutions in regular light, in the dark with added bleach solution, and under a black light.

Directed by instructional cards, learners kinesthetically model cell communication by acting as components in a cell signaling pathway.

In this activity, learners make a 3-D model of DNA using paper and toothpicks. While constructing this model, learners will explore the composition and structure of DNA.

In this activity, learners design a therapeutic agent to image and/or cure various diseases in the respiratory system.

This game uses a modified Uno deck to review concepts related to stem cell research and diabetes.

In this simulation, learners act out each digestive function of the organs, tissues, and cells in the digestive tract.

In this activity, learners create virus models, including nucleic acid and proteins, using simple materials. This resource includes information about virus structure and gene therapy.

Working in small groups, learners receive a written scenario regarding a bacterium with a certain goal it must carry out.

In this activity, learners work together to create a life-sized drawing of the human nervous system.

In this activity, learners use molecular model kits to construct familiar molecules like lactose, caffeine, and Aspirin.

In this activity, learners are challenged to eat some candy as a cell would need to as well as to think about some of the problems that arise when a cell ingests food.

In this activity, learners cut, fold, and paste paper representing biomolecules to create a three-dimensional cell membrane with embedded proteins.

In this activity about camouflage, learners create a model that shows how a flounder is able to blend into a variety of environments.
