Sal introduces the concept of "range" of a function and gives examples for functions and their ranges. [6:38]

Khan Academy learning modules include a Community space where users can ask questions and seek help from community members. Educators should consult with their Technology administrators to determine the use of Khan Academy learning modules in their classroom. Please review materials from external sites before sharing with students.

This is a three video collection about the discovery of DNA structure and function, how it was discovered, and how it works.

Students prepare for the associated activity in which they investigate acceleration by collecting acceleration vs. time data using the accelerometer of a sliding Android device. Based on the experimental set-up for the activity, students form hypotheses about the acceleration of the device. Students will investigate how the force on the device changes according to Newton's Second Law. Different types of acceleration, including average, instantaneous and constant acceleration, are introduced. Acceleration and force is described mathematically and in terms of processes and applications.

The tutorial examines basic exponential graphs and their properties. Students learn about the mathematics concepts through examples with detailed solutions.

Explore how relationships such as distance and time, velocity and time, etc. can be expressed with function notation. Assess learning with a quiz. [1:52]

Here we look at arithmetic sequences and relate them to recursive and explicit formulas. Students watch a video tutorial. [8:48]

This StudyCard stack teaches and tests on the exponential function. Shows connection between the function parameters and the resulting geometric behaviors of the exponential function. Use with Foundations for College Mathematics, ch. 6.1.

Do you know which foods have lots of calcium for your bones? How do your bones and muscles work together? What are you doing to keep your muscles strong? Students are exposed to 10 activities that will help them address the aforementioned questions and more!

In this video students will learn about the different kinds and functions of stem cells, and about the medical possibilities and controversies surrounding stem cell research. [10:12]

Students act as if they are biological engineers following the steps of the engineering design process to design and create protein models to replace the defective proteins in a child’s body. Jumping off from a basic understanding of DNA and its transcription and translation processes, students learn about the many different proteins types and what happens if protein mutations occur. Then they focus on structural, transport and defense proteins during three challenges posed by the R&D; bio-engineering hypothetical scenario. Using common classroom supplies such as paper, tape and craft sticks, student pairs design, sketch, build, test and improve their own protein models to meet specific functional requirements: to strengthen bones (collagen), to capture oxygen molecules (hemoglobin) and to capture bacteria (antibody). By designing and testing physical models to accomplish certain functional requirements, students come to understand the relationship between protein structure and function. They graph and analyze the class data, then share and compare results across all teams to determine which models were the most successful. Includes a quiz, three worksheets and a reference sheet.

A fascinating interactive laboratory in which simulations allow students to explore techniques of cardiac diagnosis and learn about cardiac structure/function. Excellent supporting information and resources for teachers and students.

What does the brain look like? As engineers, how can we look at neural networks without invasive surgery? In this activity, students design and build neuron models based on observations made while viewing neurons through a microscope. The models are used to explain how each structure of the neuron contributes to the overall function. Students share their models with younger students and explain what a neuron is, its function, and how engineers use their understanding of the neuron to make devices to activate neurons.

Superior site for information on cell signaling. Information provided as a tutorial with multiple choice questions to guide the learner. The site has lots of images and diagrams.

This pathway provides an introduction to cells as the basic unit of life and their structure and function. Prokaryotic, eukaryotic and plant cells are compared and the structure and function of different organelles is discussed. For a deeper look at this topic, we recommend the pathway Cell Structure from the OpenStax textbook Biology for AP® Courses.
