This activity explores images of planarians regenerating missing body parts, which serve as phenomena for learning about cell division and differentiation.

This video describes how scientists silence different genes in regenerating planaria to study the process of regeneration at the molecular level.

This interactive module explores biomes, climate, biodiversity, and human impacts around the globe and at different times.

The activity introduces students to the concept of biomes, using Gorongosa National Park as a case study. Part of the activity involves exploring the Gorongosa National Park Interactive Map.

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

This activity allows students to observe their own planarian and then design an experiment to investigate how planarians regenerate. It supports viewing of the video Identifying Key Genes in Regeneration.

This tutorial describes how animals differ in their abilities to heal wounds and regenerate lost body parts or damaged tissues.

This tutorial explores how stem cells can be used to treat a wide range of diseases.

This video shows real footage of somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) being performed on eggs.

This animation gives an overview of how a fertilized human egg develops into an embryo.

This animation shows how stem cells from early mammalian embryos can be grown and studied in a laboratory.
