Heat Transfer: Conduction, Convection, Radiation
By Laurie Jarvis, Deb Simonson
In this animated activity, learners explore three major methods of heat transfer and practice identifying each.
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.
Reading a Triple Beam Balance
By Jill Crowder
Students identify the parts of a triple beam balance and practice measuring the mass of objects.
Anatomical Terminology: Relative Position
By Barbara Liang
In this interactive learning activity, learners review the terms used to describe relative position of body parts in order to have a common set of words to describe their position. Check out our video on relative position: https://bit.ly/2kTXujp
Anatomical Terminology: Body Regions
Students identify the various regions of the human body through drag-and-drop exercises.
Identifying Eukaryotic Animal Cell Organelles
In this animated object, learners are introduced to the structure and function of animal cell organelles.
Biomolecules - The Lipids
In this animated object, learners examine neutral fats, phospholipids, and cholesterol. The molecular formula and general function for each are shown.
Measuring Volume Using a Graduated Cylinder
Learners view an explanation of how to read a graduated cylinder by measuring the lowest portion of the meniscus. A quiz completes the activity.
Biomolecules - The Proteins
In this animated object, learners read an introduction to protein structure and function.
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 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.
A Typical Animal Cell
By Gerald Heins
In this interactive object, learners identify the parts of an animal cell and its organelles.
The Anatomy of the Heart
By Wendy Dusek
In this animated and interactive object, learners identify the valves and chambers of the heart.
The Cell: Passive Transport Osmosis
In this animated object, learners examine water molecules moving through a semipermeable membrane.
Cell Division
In this animated activity, learners examine the two major phases of cell division: mitosis and cytokinesis.
Skin and the Integumentary System
Learners examine the structure and function of skin including the production of melanin.
Construction of Free-Body Diagrams
By Kim Ristow
In this learning activity you'll explore a step-by-step process to solve simple free-body diagrams. They identify forces acting in the x or y direction in interactive exercises.
Regional Body Parts
In this interactive object, learners identify a person's regional body parts.
Biomolecules: The Carbohydrates (Video)
By Becky Polk-Pohlman
Viewers watch an introduction to monosaccharides, disaccharides, and polysaccharides. The processes for dehydration synthesis and hydrolysis.
Newton's Second Law of Motion - Video
In this learning activity you'll examine force, mass, and acceleration to understand this "Law of Acceleration."
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.
Intermolecular Forces
By Debbie McClinton, Dr. Miriam Douglass, Dr. Martin McClinton
In this well-illustrated activity, learners examine the three types of intermolecular forces: dipole-dipole forces, London or Van der Waals forces, and the hydrogen bond. Two interactive questions are included.
Respiratory Basics
In this animated and interactive object, learners examine ventilation, external and internal respiration, and gas transport.
The Fungi Kingdom: Common Characteristics of Fungi
Learners examine what defines a fungus and read how fungi differ from animals and plants.
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.
