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

This interactive module explores key human impacts on the environment and how they have affected Earth’s landscape, ocean, atmosphere, and biodiversity.

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.

This animation shows how the protein MECP2 helps switch off gene expression.

This animation shows how a tumor forms, recruits blood vessels, and enters metastasis.

This animation shows how X chromosomes are randomly switched off in most female mammals.
