Complete your analysis for Antibiotic Resistance using simulated plate results for home remedies and antibiotics. Check out the preview to see the google slide presentation that students will work with! The ruler is completely moveable so that students can collect measurements for zones of inhibition but the plates are stationary so measurements don't get skewed. Assign the worksheet for a full background, protocol, data collection, and analysis of Kirby-Bauer testing.

This comprehensive worksheet has students evaluate genetics using the free online lab through Gizmos (this simulation is currently FREE with the creation of an account (which is also FREE). Students will explore: - tracking parentage based on F1 and F2 phenotypes - statistical analysis using Chi Squared calculations - gene linkage evaluation and gene mapping using recombination frequencies Perfect for remote learning! Everything is included for guided learning AND independent practice to rea

Use data from real pictures of onion root tips to evaluate the effect of lectin on mitotic rate! A classic AP Biology Lab turned virtual for remote learning. Students use a google slide presentation to collect and share data, perform statistic testing (including standard deviation and Chi Square analysis) before evaluating the true effect of lectin on mitosis! Check out the data collection slides in the preview!

Online lab based around the procedure of gram staining This worksheet has the students perform the gram stain AND evaluate the importance of the steps to complete the lab. End the activity with a brief analysis of shape, arrangement, gram reaction, and naming of bacterial species on the slide.

Investigate blood and blood typing in this multipart webquest. Includes: - background - blood typing game - research (for the student to perform) - blood typing practice - analysis questions **Please note: one aspect of this assignment is a virtual blood tying game that uses Adobe Flash Player which will be out of date past Dec 31, 2020. As a substitute, I recommend: https://accessdl.state.al.us/AventaCourses/access_courses/virtuallabs_ua_v21/01_unit/01-01/01-01_learn.htm

Interactive Google Slide presentation and worksheet that takes students through the purpose and steps of PCR and includes components necessary for the reaction to take place (Master Mix) at their own pace. The interactive slide deck can be assigned as an awesome introduction to PCR before diving into labs, activities, or more detailed learning. Alternative to the great (but no longer active) PCR interactive from Learn.Genetics. Take a look at the preview for a sneak peak at PART of the slide d

A great substitute for in person plasmid modellingUsing the tools in Google Docs (word counts, find & replace), students will simulate the effect of 8 restriction enzymes on both plasmid and 'human' DNA in order to isolate the 'human insulin gene' and develop a recombinant plasmid. Students will be tasked with using their knowledge of restriction enzymes and plasmids to evaluate the best restriction enzyme to perform their restriction digest experiment and develop the perfect plasmid. Based o

Use this worksheet to help your students through TWO online lab simulations on LabXChange's website. Use chemically competent cells and heat shock to transform bacteria in the first lab of the document. Take those same transformed bacteria into the second lab to plate them on solid agar and evaluate the growth and success of your experiment. Pairs perfectly with the "Digest, Ligate, and Evaluate Plasmids (LabXChange) Simulation Worksheet" **Note: depending on your class times, these activities

A great substitute (or intro) for the wildly popular Lambda DNA Restriction Digest.Using the tools in Google Docs (word counts, find & replace), students will simulate the effect of 3 restriction enzymes on a Lambda DNA sequence. Evaluate the sizes of fragments, simulate gel results, and compare expected banding patterns to real life images of them for a full evaluative lab to cap off your lessons on restriction enzymes! **answer key included**

A multi-website web quest designed to have students involved in the research of bacterial structures and basic analysis techniques.

This worksheet breaks down the LabXChange guide RNA CRIPSR lab into a gradable activity designed to exercise a student's critical thinking skills about CRISPR Cas9. Lead into the activity with a video and then task the student to determine the best possible guide RNAs to continue using in research based on a DNA cleavage assay that the students must develop. Great option for a capstone after learning about CRIPSR and gene editing.

Discover the wonders of protein analysis in this introduction to Western Blotting activity. Students are first tasked with reading information about the technique and then applying their knowledge to diagnose patients with HIV (simulated gel results are given)

This activity includes the rules for IUPAC naming of alkanes. It also includes practice for naming alkanes from given structures AND practice drawing alkanes from given names (using MolView makes this a great online assignment for remote learning)

This is a 23 question worksheet that relates to the wonderful Learn.Genetics DNA Microarray online lab simulation. The questions ensure the students focus on the crucial concepts covered in the simulation and keep them on track for learning the ins and outs of this technique. Organized for online learning with designated text boxes for the students to type directly into!

A great alternative to the real thing during remote learning! This worksheet has questions that correspond to the Learn.Genetics.Utah DNA Extraction Lab. Break down the major components of DNA extraction.

This lab is an all in one explanation, protocol, and assessment for your students to perform testing of antibiotics AND home remedies on bacterial species. Great for an introductory microbiology lesson/class with basic materials. This can even be modified to use only home remedies if you are unable to access antibiotic disks! Filter paper is a wonderful replacement for the blank disks and many home remedies can be found in your pantry!

Use this worksheet to help your students through THREE online lab simulations on LabXChange's website. Use restriction enzymes to digest plasmids and DNA ligation to fuse DNA fragments together. Then, spend some time evaluating the electrophoretic results of your experiments all online. Reinforces recombinant DNA technology laboratory skills in an interactive simulation that is fun and informative! **Note: depending on your class times, these activities can take 3 days to complete. A great optio

Review the concepts of chromosomes and the function of karyotyping for diagnosing genetic abnormalities. This worksheet has the students interact with different online resources to explore chromosomal inheritance and aneuploidy! Great for remote learning!

Work with food dyes and bacterial stains to explain the directionality and function of electrophoresis in a laboratory. This worksheet includes areas for students to hypothesize the direction and banding patterns of various dyes and understand the use of electrophoresis in DNA analysis by evaluating an unknown concoction of your choosing.

This is an all in one worksheet with an introduction to Chi Square Analysis. Includes a breakdown of the ins and outs of Chi Square, null and alternative hypothesis development, and a script to help with the analysis of chi square data.
