Genetics Meiosis Chromosome Crossover & Genetic Variation High School Biology
Simple and effective worksheet to help students visualize crossing-over between sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes during prophase I of meiosis and the resulting increase in genetic variation of the gametes. Students color the original chromosomes and then determine the results for nine different cross-over scenarios.Also includes:one pre-made digital Easel activitydigital Easel answers.This activity aligns well with the following: Genetic Terms Set #2: ChromosomesClick here to follow

Quick Lab-Modeling Predator/Prey Interactions
This lab is cheap and easy to complete in 45-50 min. It is a hands-on way to model predator/prey interactions and explores the basic question of how a population can change in response to their environment and interactions with other organisms. Could easily be adjusted to discuss and demonstrate evolution over time.

Factors that Affect the Rate of Enzyme Activity Lab using Toothpicks
This listing features four-page lab activity where a designated student in a small group simulates a functioning enzyme that is responsible for breaking apart flat toothpicks in various time trials. Enzymes are a significant factor that affects the rate of reactions. This activity is suited for middle or high school physical science and middle or high school life science/biology. In this activity, the hand of the designated student enzyme will serve as the active site. The first trial serves as

Mark & Recapture Simulation Lab for Ecology Using Poker Chips
This listing features a three-page user-friendly lab guide for an interactive mark and recapture simulation, where students use poker chips to symbolize fish captured in a lake. I facilitate this mark and recapture simulation in my year-long field ecology course every year. This activity is also ideal for a wildlife management course or for an extended ecology unit in biology. Please note – there are materials you will need that are not included in this listing to conduct this lesson. They inc
