The lesson introduces genetics, which is the study of heredity. Heredity is the characteristics offspring inherit from their parents. This lesson also examines Gregor Mendel’s theories of heredity and how they have affected the field of genetics. Part I Part II Gregor Mendel and Garden Peas From experiments with garden peas, Mendel developed a simple …
Cell Respiration Once cells have been made, they need to be powered. Plants and some other cells can capture the energy of light and convert it into stored energy in ATP. However, most prokaryotic cells and all eukaryotic cells can perform a metabolic process called cellular respiration. Cellular respiration is the process by which the mitochondria …
This lesson introduces basic processes of cellular reproduction and the division of cells. These processes provide ways for cells to make new cells. Cell Reproduction Cells divide primarily for growth, repair, and reproduction. When an organism grows, it normally needs more cells. If damage occurs, more cells must appear to repair the damage and replace …
This lesson describes the cell structure and two different types of cells. The lesson also explores the functions of various cell parts. Cell Theory and Types All living things are made of cells. Cells are the smallest structural units and basic building blocks of living things. Cells contain everything necessary to keep living things alive. Varying in …
This lesson introduces the basics of biology, including the process researchers use to study science. It also examines the classes of biomolecules and how substances are broken down for energy. *There is no review video for this section. Each topic discussed will be further expanded upon in upcoming lessons with review videos that cover the …
This lesson introduces the idea of experimental design and the factors one must consider to build a successful experiment. Scientific Method Tools for Scientific Inquiry Scientific Reasoning When conducting scientific research, two types of scientific reasoning can be used to address scientific problems: inductive reasoning and deductive reasoning. Both forms of reasoning are also used …

The general sciences include an area of study in biology, a more specified area on the study of living things. Cells are the basic building blocks of life, and this section will provide a broad overview on these structures, as well as ways to classify different living organisms based on cellular differences.But while the majority …
