Inquiries in Science® Biology Series - Help your students understand hard-to-grasp science concepts. Using a learning cycle of engage, explore, explain, extend, and evaluate, each kit features lab activities designed to actively engage students in learning essential science concepts through guided inquiry. Topics addressed by the kits were organized and selected based on data from numerous sources, including the National Research Council's National Science Education Standards, AAAS's Project 2061 Science Benchmarks, NAEP's Science Framework, and state science education standards from across the US.

A Carolina Exclusive! Grades 9–12.

• Explore the relationship between cellular respiration and photosynthesis in plants
• Understand how cells use an aerobic or aneaerobic process to generate energy
• Design and perform scientific investigations

Using aquatic plants, students explore the processes of photsynthesis and cellular respiration by testing for the presence of carbon dioxide in water. They then apply their knowledge and design an experiment testing factors that might limit or improve the rate of cellular respiration in yeast.

Kit includes lab supplies (enough for 30 students working in groups) plus teacher's manual.
