This video case study explores whether elephants can detect, interpret, and respond to signals delivered by underground vibrations.

This video case study explores whether fungicides play a role in the decline of bee populations.

This activity explores images of animals with a mutation that affects coloration, which serve as phenomena for learning about skin color genetics and evolution.

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 on how adversity in early life impacts the long-term survival of baboons.

This activity guides the analysis of a published scientific figure from a study that investigated how males in a species of sexually cannibalistic spiders choose their mates.

This activity explores the content presented in the animated video Nature’s Cutest Symbiosis: The Bobtail Squid, which describes how the light produced by bacteria living inside bobtail squid helps the squid avoid its predators.

This short video explores the symbiotic relationship between the Hawaiian bobtail squid and light-producing bacteria.

This activity explores images of the bobtail squid, which serve as phenomena for learning about symbiosis and interspecies interactions.

This interactive module explores niche partitioning, a mechanism that enables similar species of animals to coexist.

This activity explores images of animals that live in groups, which serve as phenomena for learning about animal behavior.

This video follows ecologist Caitlin O'Connell-Rodwell, who is studying how elephants can communicate over long distances using low-frequency sounds that travel both in the air and through the ground.
