The Cell Transport Processes covered in this power point are diffusion, passive transport, osmosis: hypertonic, isotonic, hypotonic, active transport, endocytosis, exocytosis, phagocytosis, pinocytosis. The power point also covers homeostasis and what basic elements a cells needs to have in order to maintain homeostasis. I included a printable homeostasis chart that is displayed int he power point.

Genetic expression is influenced by internal and external stimulus. After covering genetics this Quest power point is a great way to assess your students understanding of the two. There are fifteen authentic scenarios for students to discuss and determine the genetic expression cause. Some of the questions are historical. This is a good activity to follow up genetic expression to make sure your students understand the difference between internal and external stimulus. You can pair the students, use it as a flipped classroom assignment or turn it into a full class discussion. Answer sheet and key is included. Quest power points ask the students questions. They do not present information instead the scenarios are designed to assess how well the students understand biological concepts.

This power point presentation can be done over a few days. It begins with the atom, chemical bonding and the elements of life (CHNOPS: carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorous, sulfur). Then it goes over dehydration synthesis and hydrolysis followed by the four biomolecule groups. There is also a guided notes on CHNOPS that is a fill in blank for the first portion of the power point, the key is included. There is a biomolecules comparison chart for the second half of the power point. For the bonding portion of the power point, there is a "chemical bonding in biology" foldable. This can be put together like a brochure if you photocopy it front to back.

This power point question set has 25 slides where the students need to figure out what level of life is being described. Students can choose biomolecules, organelles, cells, tissue, organ, organ system, organism, population, community, ecosystem, or biosphere for their answers. It is a great way to get the students talking about what they learned in class and applying it to real life examples. I have the answer sheet and answer key included. You can show the power point to the whole class or upload it to your classroom website and allow the students to work individually or pairs . Another option is to print the slides and have stations set up around the room for the students to visit and answer.

This power point and graphic organizer fold out foldable can be taught together. Students will have a short review of mitosis and cover vocabulary specific to meiosis. Next the students go over crossing over using terms such as sister chromatids, homologous chromosomes, synapsis, tetrad, chiasmata. If you teach AP Biology it is great for review. The detailed meiotic steps also discuss what is happening with the quantity of genetic material and each phase of meiosis is detailed.

POWER POINT The population genetics power point covers the mechanisms of how species evolve over time. It begins with an overview of Hardy-Weinberg and then delves into genetic flow, genetic drift, bottleneck effect, founder's effect, the types of selection, the types of isolation and the types of speciation. The power point is filled with examples of the mechanisms and pictures, graphs and charts to help emphasize the concepts. GRAPHIC ORGANIZER FOLD-OUT FOLDABLE The population genetics graphic organizer prompts students to write about the mechanisms of how species evolve over time. It has compartments for Hardy-Weinberg and then delves into genetic flow, genetic drift, bottleneck effect, founder's effect, the types of selection, the types of isolation and the types of speciation. There are visual prompts to help students remember the differences between the topics. Easily fits into a composition notebook or spiral ring notebook. Works great with interactive notebooks. A detailed teacher's key is included. The concepts are heavy within population genetics so I would advise to chunk the information up into segments instead of teaching them all the way through in one day.

A new twist on a dimensional analysis (factor/ label method). This activity is for after you have taught dimensional analysis. Students need to apply the skills they learned to see if they can escape in time to avoid the incoming zombies. You can have the students compete individually or in groups and which ever individual or group gets the six problems correctly answered first is the winner. There is a worksheet for the students, a Zombie Survival Fact sheet with some conversions. The students will need to use the information given to make their own conversion statements. I have included a teachers key with equivalency statements and how to solve the problems step by step. Student worksheet (3 pages) Zombie Key (1 page) Teacher Key (3 pages)

Symbiosis is an interaction between organisms where they are so dependent on each other they are nearly as one. This bundle has a power point for the initial introduction to symbiosis: endosymbiosis, mutualism, commensalism, parasitism, predation and free living organisms. There are examples of each with graphs to display the relationships between the organisms. Students will be able to determine the types of symbiosis organisms are engaged in. I included the power point called Symbiosis Quest Power Point which is an activity where students have to identify the type of symbiotic relationship. It is a great follow up activity to this lesson. The slides can also printed as task cards. An answer document and key is included. This is a one page brochure foldable which covers the five types of symbiosis: mutualism, commensalism, parasitism, predation, endosymbiosis, along with free living organisms. Students have places to write definitions and there are data charts included for each symbiotic relationship so students can see how populations are affected by symbiotic relationships. The foldable only needs to be copied front to back. The key is included. the brochure is small and can be easily glued into an interactive notebook.
