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

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

This film tells the story of the ecologists who first documented the role of keystone species in ecosystem regulation.

Several questions are embedded within the short film The Making of the Fittest: Got Lactase? The Co-evolution of Genes and Culture, which explores the genetics of lactase persistence and evolution of the trait in some human populations.

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

This film explores the genetics and evolution of lactase persistence in humans.

This animation shows how human infants can digest milk using the enzyme lactase.

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