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

This Click & Learn traces the flow of energy from the Sun all the way to cells within organisms. The embedded questions and calculations guide students’ understanding of how energy is distributed through a variety of ecosystems.

This interactive module allows students to collect and analyze data from a virtual river to construct biomass and energy pyramids.

This interactive module consists of a virtual Winogradsky column, which can be used to explore the diversity of microbes, microbial metabolic strategies, and geochemical gradients found in sediments.

This interactive module explores examples of how changes in one species can affect species at other trophic levels and ultimately the entire ecosystem.

This tutorial describes the structure and function of the cancer-causing protein BCR-ABL. It also shows how drugs targeting this protein can help treat chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), a cancer of the white blood cells.

This model shows the structure of the protein BCR-ABL, which causes a type of cancer called chronic myeloid leukemia.

This model shows a mutated form of the cancer-causing protein BCR-ABL that is resistant to the drug Gleevec.

This model shows the structure of ATP, a molecule that provides energy for cellular processes, including protein phosphorylation.

This tutorial describes the symbiosis between the Hawaiian bobtail squid and bioluminescent bacteria.

This tutorial describes how bacteria communicate by a process known as quorum sensing, as shown through a series of experiments involving genetically engineered bioluminescent bacteria.

This tutorial explores how fat is digested, transported, stored, and used for energy.
