Protein Synthesis
The learner explores the structure and function of the nucleic acids and enzymes important to the process of synthesizing proteins.
Cell Comparisons
Learners compare a variety of prokaryotes and eukaryotes to determine similarities and differences among and between them.
Monohybrid and Dihybrid Crosses
Learners calculate the probability of genotypic inheritance and phenotypic expression using mono- and dihybrid crosses.
Mechanisms of Evolution Beyond Natural Selection
Learners analyze and evaluate the effects of other evolutionary mechanisms.
Evidence for Evolution
Learners analyze and evaluate how evidence of common ancestry among groups is provided by the fossil record, biogeography, and homologies, including anatomical, molecular, and developmental.
Taxonomy Standards
Given examples, students will recognize the importance of taxonomy to the scientific community.
Taxonomy: Major Groups
Given illustrations or descriptions, students will determine the classification of organisms into domains and kingdoms.
Relationships Between Organisms: Food Chains, Webs, and Pyramids
Given illustrations, students will analyze the flow of matter and energy in food chains, food webs, and ecological pyramids.
It's All About Cell Theory
This resource provides flexible alternate or additional learning opportunities for students to recognize the development and components of the cell theory, TEKS (7)(12)(F).
4.01 Frequency Tables
In this video, we introduce frequency and relative frequency tables.
4.02 Cumulative Frequency Tables
In this video, students will construct cumulative frequency tables.
4.03 Dot Plots and Comparing Distributions
In this video, we construct our first visual beyond listing data: dot plots. We also begin our discussion of center, shape, spread, and outliers, and compare dot plots.
4.04 Stemplots and Comparing Distributions
In this video, we construct and compare stemplots, and continue our conversation about shape, center, spread, and outliers.
4.05 Histograms and Comparing Distributions
In this video, we construct histograms and use them to compare data distributions.
4.06 Box Plots and Comparing Distributions
In this video, we construct box plots and use them to compare data distributions. We also compare box plots and histograms.
11.01 Scatterplots
In this video, students will analyze scatterplots for strength, direction, and form, and identify potential outliers.
11.02 Correlation
In this video, students will interpret the correlation coefficient.
11.03 Determining the Line of Best Fit
In this video, students will determine the line of best fit using least-squares regression.
11.04 Making Predictions
In this video, students will use the line of best fit to make predictions for a value of y given a value of x.
11.05 Interpreting Slope and y-Intercept
In this video, students will interpret the slope and the y-intercept.
