This product allows AP Bio (or honors bio) students to investigate gene regulation in prokaryotes using the PhET simulation of the lac operon as an example. The worksheet walks students through each step, and how to use the simulation to learn how prokaryotes regulate gene expression. This product includes: A two page worksheet (~one class period) to go along with the simulationA link to the PhET simulationAn answer keyIf you enjoy this, leave a good review and check out other products like it

The AP Bio 2025 CED mentions several types of graphs that students must be familiar with that are in no-way common knowledge for a high school student! Many of them require practice and explanation so that students are prepared to construct, and analyze these graphs on both FRQ's and MCQ's of the AP exam. This product provides the following A link to the CED explanations of each type of graphMultiple practice problems with sample data for all the hardest types of graphsSample data that is focuse

This product is meant to be a simple intro to the first few topics of Unit 8 in AP bio. Students need exposure to the world of internal and external cues between organisms that benefit not only the individual’s survival, but their entire colony/species (cooperation behaviors). This intriguing, and real-life example of ant foraging behaviors gives students a chance to dissect a challenging piece of scientific literature similar to that of an FRQ, while also learning something about ants! I use th

This activity has AP Bio students reading sections from a published scientific article on the discovery of the "nitroplast", a nitrogen-fixing organelle-like structure that was recently discovered. This product includes a link to the article, and questions that guide students through an article that would otherwise be very challenging. The article touches on cell-size limitations, SA:V ratio, organelles, endosymbiotic theory, and nitrogen fixation, and so can be used during Units 2, 3, or 7. A
