This demonstration can be used to help learners visualize DNA by lysing (breaking open) bacterial cells on a slide and “stringing up” the DNA with a toothpick in less than one minute.

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

In this activity related to plant biotechnology, learners transform a strain of E. coli using green fluorescent protein from a bioluminescent jellies.

In this highly collaborative activity, learners design and complete a controlled experiment which attempts to answer a simple question about the slime mold Physarum.

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