Heredity & Environment
Students investigate the age-old question
of heredity vs. environment using albino tobacco seeds from heterozygous parents. Some seeds are germinated in light and others in the dark. Students must use data to defend heredity or environment. An excellent starting point for a more in-depth discussion!

Survival Island—Super Value Kit
This simple and fun simulation illustrates that natural resources are limited and deplet-
ing them can be disastrous. The game-like simulation mimics the real Easter Island—the catastrophic story of a small island off the Chilean coast. Survival Island has a finite area and resources. Once inhabited, the popu- lation grows rapidly and decisions about resource use become critical for survival.
The Relationship Game— Student Activity Kit
This interactive and educational game teaches students about the interconnection between plants, animals and their environ- ment. A change in one organism can have drastic effects on another organism. Students use game cards to build relationship chains to learn how certain organisms are related
to one another. The group with the longest chain wins!

Duckweed Population Study— Student Laboratory Kit
Witness a population explosion right in the classroom as students nurture and experi- ment with living duckweed plants. Students design their own experiments to determine factors that can affect the rate of the popu- lation explosion. Duckweed cultures are available separately.

Students capture individuals in a simulated population, “tag” them and release them and back into the population. After multiple trials, students mathematically predict the size of the population and then count the actual population to determine the reliability of the mark/ recapture technique.
