ACTIVITY & GUIDED-INQUIRY KITS
Survival Island—Super Value Kit
This engaging simulation illustrates that natu- ral resources are limited and depleting them can be disastrous. The game-like simulation mimics the real Easter Island—the cata- strophic story of a small island off the Chilean coast. Once inhabited, the population grows rapidly, and decisions about resource use become critical for survival. Super Value Kit is complete for six student groups.
FB1577 I $43.75
Adaptations—Activity-Stations Kit
Four activity stations explore the concept of adaptations! Learn the advantages of having an opposable thumb by conducting various tasks without one, put depth perception to the test by using only one eye, see how concealing coloration can be advantageous, and investigate how well feathers provide insulation. Complete for 12 student groups.

Enzyme Optimization—pH and Temperature Guided-Inquiry Kit
Students analyze background information, develop a hypothesis and design and carry out
an experiment to determine the optimum pH or temperature for an enzyme. Includes four digestive enzymes along with buffers and testing solutions to test the progress or products of their respective digestion reactions. Complete for 24 students working in groups of four.
FB1867 I $84.80
Catalase Investigation— Guided-Inquiry Kit
Students design their own controlled experiments and discover the factors that affect the rate of enzyme reactions. This activity meets many of the higher level skills outlined in the National Science Standards. The laboratory investigations allow students to conduct experiments of their own design while studying the chemical reactions of
a key cell enzyme, catalase. The unique “floating-disk” assay system provides a new and fun alternative for students as they study enzyme kinetics. Complete for 30 students working in pairs.
