In this activity, students use an interactive tool to simulate how scientists collected and used sample data to estimate elephant population sizes.

In this Click & Learn, students explore the process of digestion and how it connects to metabolism and cellular respiration. 

In this Click & Learn, students explore factors that contribute to patterns seen in the Keeling Curve: a continuous record of atmospheric CO₂ starting in 1958.

This interactive module introduces the anatomy of the immune system and walks through the timeline of a typical immune response.

In this Click & Learn, students explore mathematical models that describe how populations change over time and apply these models to the invasive lionfish population in the Bahamas. They also use data from other species to learn how density-dependent factors limit population size.

This interactive simulation allows students to explore two classic mathematical models that describe how populations change over time: the exponential and logistic growth models.

This interactive module explores methods used to survey large animal populations, and what they have revealed about the current state of the African elephant population.

This interactive module explores the environmental factors and species involved in five major mass extinctions.

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.

Several questions are embedded within the short film The Day the Mesozoic Died, which tells the story of the scientific quest to explain one of the greatest, long-standing scientific mysteries: the sudden disappearance of the dinosaurs at the end of the Cretaceous period.

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.
