Cellular respiration is a set of metabolic reactions and processes that take place in the cells of organisms to produce needed energy from nutrients. These processes help keep the Earth in balance by breaking down the food that photosynthesis produces.
Explore efforts to decrease the use of pesticides by genetically engineering resistance in plants. Viewers also consider the debate over the benefits and risks of genetically modified organisms. Part of "The Botany of Desire" series.
Part of a series that features a wide variety of video footage, photographs, diagrams, graphics, and labels. For this particular video, students will focus on assigning organisms to the correct family as outlined by the scientific classification system. Part of the Science Video Vocab series.
In this episode, Pinky and Petunia discuss protists and fungi. They explore the cell type, mode of feeding, habitat, and ecology of both of these organisms. Part of "The Amoeba Sisters" series.
Learn how scientists are attempting to enhance apples' defenses through genetic engineering. Viewers learn why it is important for organisms to have a wide variety of genes. Part of "The Botany of Desire" series.
Discusses the various feeding strategies and adaptations of the different species of microorganisms. Some form symbiotic relationships with one another while others are predatory. One of nine segments in a series, with all nine available on a DVD.
Students will explore the relationship between plants and animals and the role they play in the food chain. Students will also learn that food chains represent the continuous exchange of energy among organisms. Part of the Real World Science series.
For a few weeks each year, vernal pools explode with a diversity of microscopic and small animal life. Visually examines the plethora of living organisms often found in these vibrant, temporary pools.
Rotifers are found in still waters, and there are over 2,000 species. They all have two crowns of cilia that work in sync to help them move and gather food. One of nine segments in a series, with all nine available on a DVD.
Water fleas are crustaceans, and they are the foundation for the web of life in water ecosystems. They are the most plentiful food source for other water ecosystem organisms. One of nine segments in a series, with all nine available on a DVD.
All living things have basic needs that must be met in order to survive. This easy-to-understand program addresses the basic needs of organisms. By considering specific plants and animals, the viewer sees how living things need food, water, air and a place to live.
Six researchers share 60-second stories about organisms that may be gone, but not forgotten. Researchers and scientists study these stories to get a better understanding of the complexities of life on Earth. Part of the "Shelf Life" series.
Part of a series that features a wide variety of video footage, photographs, diagrams, graphics, and labels. For this particular video, students will focus on negative feedback loops and their role in maintaining homeostasis in organisms. Part of the Science Video Vocab series.
The Great Barrier Reef is the largest reef on the planet and exists in nutrient poor waters. How does the reef support all the diverse organisms that live on the reef? This episode discusses the relationship between coral and algae, which is the key to the survival of the entire ecosystem. Part of the "Nature's Microworlds" series.
All living organisms share several key characteristics or functions. When combined, these characteristics serve to define life. In this episode, Petunia and Pinky discuss several of the characteristics of life. Part of "The Amoeba Sisters" series. Please note: This title contains discussions on sexual reproduction.
In this segment, students learn about the process of weathering. It is the breaking down of rocks, soil, and minerals through contact with the earth's atmosphere, water, and biological organisms. Other topics covered include erosion, surface water, groundwater, wind, and waves. Part of the "Earth Science" series.
Offers an overview of the basics of scientific classification of all living organisms by arranging and categorizing them into seven main groups: Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, and Species. Gives and explains examples of each group within the animal and plant kingdoms. A science quiz is given after each grouping.
