In this activity, students investigate the phenomenon of lactase persistence by making sense of a series of data sets.

This activity guides the analysis of a published scientific figure from a study that investigated how gene duplication contributed to the evolution of electric fish.

This activity guides the analysis of a published scientific figure from a study that used SNP genotyping to identify the mutations that result in morphological differences in stickleback fish.

This activity guides the analysis of a published scientific figure from a study on how social status affects the expression of genes involved in immune system processes.

In this activity, students explore how experimental work in zebrafish led to a better understanding of the role of the gene SLC24A5 in human skin color. The activity complements the film The Biology of Skin Color.

This activity guides the analysis of a published scientific figure from a study that investigated a gene involved in determining human skin color.
