Using Animation to Study Cell Structure. Overview | How can animations help convey the dynamic nature of cellular processes? What can we learn from animation that cannot be learned as easily from still images? In this lesson, students watch high-definition animations that depict the processes of DNA transcription and translation, and then write voice-over scripts. Materials | Science textbooks, computers with Internet access, projection equipment Warm-Up | Show the animation “The Inner Life of the Cell.” Afterward, ask: What is this video about? What clues give you that idea? Do you recognize any of the structures highlighted in the video? Next, show the Times video “The Animators of Life”: Note that in the video, Robert A. You may wish to pause and rewind the video to give students time to jot down the colorful words and phrases, and even the body language, Dr. Related | In the article “Where Cinema and Biology Meet,” Erik Olsen reports on the growing field of scientific animation: Dr.
What is molecular animation? Science 4. Cell Structures. The Biology Project: Cell Biology. En español Cell Membranes Learn that membranes are fluid, with components that move, change, and perform vital physiological roles as they allow cells to communicate with each other and their environment. Cell Signaling Learn that living organisms constantly receive and interpret signals from their environment.
Cells of multi-cellular organisms also receive signals from other cells, including signals for cell division and differentiation. Studying Cells Introduce yourself to the cell as the fundamental unit of life and the scientific method. The Cell Cycle & Mitosis Understand the events that occur in the cell cycle and the process of mitosis that divides the duplicated genetic material creating two identical daughter cells. Meiosis Understand the events that occur in process of meiosis that takes place to produce our gametes.
Prokaryotes, Eukaryotes, & Viruses Learn about the cells that make up all living systems, their organelles, and the differences between living cells and viruses. A Typical Animal Cell.
