Developed by Donna Bozzone, Saint Michael's College.

They can also design experiments to test how cells choose between developmental pathways, the behavior and biology of the multicellular stages, how different species of cellular slime molds interact, and many other questions. Includes teacher instructions and suggestions for further inquiry.
