Includes the following modules: "Mitosis: Chromosome Condensation," "Mitosis: Stages," "Cytokinesis," "Meiosis," "Nucleotide Structure and Bonding," "Replication Enzymes," "Replicating the Strands," "The Twisting Problem," and "Proofreading and Repair."
Dr. Jeffrey Friedman shows how leptin rewires neural circuits, and how population studies may identify obesity genes. Part of the 2004 Howard Hughes Holiday Lecture Series
A food science professor discusses the chemistry and physics of food preparation and cooking. She also gives an overview of a food science laboratory and its equipment.
This video explores the fascinating world of microscopic life. It begins by discussing viruses and explaining how they cause disease. Students also learn the importance of bacterial cells and explore the life of protists. Additional concepts and terminology include microscope, vaccine, moneran, decomposition, amoeba, phytoplankton, yeast, algae, paramecium, and protozoa.
Political scientist James Fowler makes the connection between smiling profile pictures on Facebook and human evolution.
What is neuroplasticity? CEO and founder of TAO Connect, Sherry Benton, explains the brain's ability to reorganize itself by forming new neural connections throughout life. Part of the "Ask a Scientists" series.

Nourish is an educational initiative designed to open a meaningful conversation about food and sustainability, particularly in schools and communities. In this clip, chef Jamie Oliver discusses the uses for herbs in cooking. Part of the Nourish Short Films Series.
Defines viruses and traces the way they enter and infect the human body. Discusses virus mutation. Documents researchers working to develop vaccines from viruses. Explains why retroviruses pose a problem to scientists every year.
Provides an overview of how attraction, desire, and sexual coupling lead to conception. Covers the physiological events underlying the process of reproduction. NOTE: graphic content.
Bill Nye explores facts about the brain, zeroing in on some of its functions, kinds of memory, optical illusions, and general information. Suggests activities and experiments that demonstrate the wonder of the brain.
By providing a big picture view of food and globalization, viewers examine the connections between food, environment, health, and communities. Viewers also learn specific steps that can be taken to create a sustainable food future.
Features a wide variety of video footage, photographs, diagrams and colorful, animated graphics and labels. Begins with a simple definition, and this helps clarify pronunciation and provides opportunities to transfer words from working to long-term memory. Also concludes with a critical thinking question. For this particular clip, students will focus on living.
Some of the most powerful and useful things in the world come from plants. Who knew they could help unlock some of biology's mysteries by using the approach of mapping biological pathways? Part of "Science Out Loud" series.
Students explore the smallest, but most important units of life: cells. They also gain an understanding of common cell parts through lifelike animations. Additional concepts and terminology include building blocks of life, animal cell, cell membrane, nucleus, cytoplasm, plant cell, photosynthesis, cell wall, chloroplasts, organelles, and role of cells in the body.
A woman with osteoporosis shares her experience, how she copes, and steps she's taken to prevent further bone loss. Physicians explain the disease, the risks and statistics, and the importance of calcium, exercise, and vitamin D earlier in life. Demonstrates a bone density test.
