COMPLETE make over with NEW upgraded graphics and hugely improved interactivity. This is a PowerPoint tutorial and animation of meiosis which can be adapted to any language. This is no static PowerPoint but uses the animation facility to simulate mitosis with full captions and notes. Teachers are then able to alter captions to their language and needs.The introduction includes:details of human chromosome arrangement; difference between meiosis and mitosis and the basics of cell and chromosome s
This fully animated PowerPoint shows how the DNA code is used to direct the cell to make proteins. This PowerPoint will take you step by step through the process at your own pace. It simplifies an otherwise complex process - accounts for 20 000 youtube hits of the video version of part of process.

DNA structure beginning with the basics. Fully animated powerpoint of the structure of DNA and replication. Detailed tutorial of DNA from basic units- sugars, phosphates and bases- then how nucleotides link to form chains, the double helix. NEW edition is interactive. Fully Editable Teacher Edition.

This is a fully animated PowerPoint of protein synthesis. It starts with from the basics of protein structure using the examples of two types of hair. There is an overview of the entire process followed by a detailed animation of transcription and translation. Students can proceed at their own pace and easily understand an otherwise complex process (accounts for the 20 000 YouTube hits on the of the video version of translation.} The Teacher edition is fully editable.

This interactive and animated STEM activity engages students in merging basic coding with the code of life -DNA. The activity starts with creating a simple graphic and converting this into binary code. The student is then guided to convert this into DNA code. A simulated DNA synthesizer is used to produce a DNA strand for the containing the code for the graphic image. The activity is an in the form of an animated and interactive PowerPoint Presentation.
