The purpose of this lab activity is to demonstrate (through simulation) how DNA fingerprinting (or DNA profiling) might be used to solve a crime.

Many of the genetic sequences found in the fruit fly genome are similar to those found in humans.

Learners use a simple process to extract DNA from strawberries.

DNA is the thread of life. Encoded in its genetic sequence is the information that makes each of us unique. This activity allows you to see long, stringy strands of DNA extracted from wheat germ.

DNA is the thread of life. Encoded in its genetic sequence is the information that makes each of us unique.

In this experiment, learners isolate Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) from onion cells using a simple extraction procedure.

In this two-part activity, learners will extract their own DNA from their cheek cells and learn how DNA is analyzed and used to solve crimes.

In this activity, learners count and measure kidney beans to explore natural selection and variation. Learners measure the length of 50-100 beans.

In this activity, learners perform an experiment that models a chromatography-like process called electrophoresis, a process used to analyze DNA.
