The Sense of Taste
By Barbara Liang
In this interactive object, learners examine the structure and function of the sense of taste.
The Anatomy of the Heart
By Wendy Dusek
In this animated and interactive object, learners identify the valves and chambers of the heart.
Identifying Eukaryotic Animal Cell Organelles
In this animated object, learners are introduced to the structure and function of animal cell organelles.
Construction of the Cell Membrane
By Becky Polk-Pohlman, Barbara Liang
In this learning activity you'll study the structure of the cell membrane and construct it using the correct molecules.
The Cell: Passive Transport Diffusion
In this animated object, learners view molecules as they collide and move between two different solutions. They also observe what happens when the temperature of the solutions is raised or lowered.
The Cell: Passive Transport Osmosis
In this animated object, learners examine water molecules moving through a semipermeable membrane.
Biomolecules - The Lipids
In this animated object, learners examine neutral fats, phospholipids, and cholesterol. The molecular formula and general function for each are shown.
The Sense of Hearing (Screencast)
In this screencast, learners examine hearing and balance. Detailed drawings of the outer, middle, and inner ear structures are included.
Protein Synthesis
In this learning activity you'll review how every protein molecule of an organism is synthesized by that organism in a prescribed process. This activity helps students understand the fundamental life process of making protein.
The 12 Cranial Nerves
In this interactive and animated object, learners read a description of the number, name, and function of the cranial nerves. A matching quiz completes the activity.
Transport Processes Requiring ATP
In this animated object, students observe how ATP energy is used to move substances across the cell membrane from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher concentration and when something too large needs to get in or out of a cell.
An Overview of Pulmonary and Systemic Circulation
In this animated and interactive object, learners examine how blood flows through the heart and lungs. A brief quiz completes the activity.
Biomolecules - The Proteins
In this animated object, learners read an introduction to protein structure and function.
Respiratory Basics
In this animated and interactive object, learners examine ventilation, external and internal respiration, and gas transport.
The Stress Response
In this animated object, learners read a brief description of the roles of the hypothalamus, emotions, and adrenal secretions during the stress response.
Biomolecules: The Proteins (Video)
Explore what proteins are, their structure, and their functions.
The Axial Skeleton: The Skull and the Rib Cage
In this animated object, learners examine the eight cranial bones, the fourteen facial bones, and the ribs.
A Typical Animal Cell (Video)
In this video, learners view the parts of an animal cell and its organelles.
The Cell: Passive Transport Diffusion (Video)
By Wisc-Online
Explore what passive transport diffusion is and how it moves water through a membrane.
Body Sections and Divisions of the Abdominal Pelvic Cavity
In this animated activity, learners examine how organs are visualized in three dimensions. The terms “longitudinal,” “cross,” “transverse,” “horizontal,” and “sagittal” are defined. Students test their knowledge of the location of abdominal pelvic cavity organs in two drag-and-drop exercises.
Tissue Identification
In this learning activity you'll review the structure and function of the different tissues of the human body.
Biomolecules - The Lipids (Video)
Skin and the Integumentary System
Learners examine the structure and function of skin including the production of melanin.
The Sense of Sight (Screencast)
In this screencast, learners read about the parts of the eye.
