This activity guides the analysis of a published scientific figure from a study that investigated physiological and genetic adaptations in the Bajau, a group of people who traditionally do freediving.

This activity explores an image of tumor cells invading muscle tissue, which serves as a phenomenon for learning about cancer, mutations, and cell division.

This activity analyzes a published scientific figure from a study that investigated the role of p53 in cell cycle regulation.

This animation illustrates the main stages of the water cycle in Gorongosa National Park, an ecosystem that experiences both wet and dry seasons.

This activity allows students to use authentic scientific data to make claims about the threat of coral bleaching for reefs around the world.

A number of questions are embedded within the short film The Making of the Fittest: The Birth and Death of Genes, which illustrates how gene duplications and mutations have led to remarkable physiological adaptations in Antarctic fish.

This activity explores an image of early embryonic cells, which serves as a phenomenon for learning about cell division and development.

This interactive module explores the circulatory systems of major vertebrate groups to gain insights into their evolution.

This interactive module explores the phases, checkpoints, and protein regulators of the cell cycle. The module also shows how mutations in genes that encode cell cycle regulators can lead to the development of cancer.

These two hands-on activities engage students in exploring the genetic basis of cancer using cards and posters.

This video provides an overview of the types of genes that, when mutated, can lead to the development of cancer.

This animation shows how disrupting cellular processes in the intestines can lead to colon cancer.
