Investigate an urchin barren, trace energy through the food web, and test trophic cascades.
Trace one carbon atom into plant matter through models, maps, and a photosynthesis builder.
Build nucleotides, use base-pairing rules, and model how DNA copies itself.
Follow DNA instructions into RNA and proteins to see how cells build what they need.
Investigate why two purple-flowered parents can have a white-flowered offspring.
