"Plants are the only living things that can make their own food. They do this during the day while it's light, using a process called photosynthesis, which uses carbon dioxide and produces oxygen. During the day and night plants take in oxygen and release carbon dioxide through respiration. Discover just how important plants are to life on Earth. Find out how we can help plants survive and thrive."

"Learn more about the human body. Information is provided on the skeleton, the heart, the brain, and the digestive tract, and how they function."
"Here you'll find a wealth of resources and information aimed at helping educators bring genetics, bioscience and health alive in the classroom. A companion to the popular Learn.Genetics website, Teach.Genetics offers additional tools and resources to support your curriculum, all free of charge."
"represents 30 years of capturing film and computer-enhanced images of living cells and organisms for education and medical research. Students delve into various topics in cell biology, immunology, microbiology, and microscopy using interactives created by Jim Sullivan."
"Includes short films, scientific lectures, teacher resources, multimedia, and interactive features."
"The National Institutes of Health (NIH) curates a list of science education resources for students and teachers. Their catalog primarily focuses on the human body and health topics, as well as subjects such as microscopy and environmental health. Click the “GeneEd” link if you are looking for genetics resources. Click on the “Office of Science Education” link to make your way to the free NIH curriculum supplements for teachers."
"The Tree of Life Web Project (ToL) is a collaborative effort of biologists and nature enthusiasts from around the world. On more than 10,000 World Wide Web pages, the project provides information about biodiversity, the characteristics of different groups of organisms, and their evolutionary history (phylogeny)."
"Scitable, created by NatureEducation, is an online collaborative space for science learning. Visitors to the site can browse or search through science articles and ebooks, ask experts science-related questions, build an online classroom, or even share their own content. Materials on the site are focused on the life sciences, but there are also numerous resources that can help learners start or accelerate a career in science."
"An online resource of exhibits and activities created by Dr. Saul. He includes animations, interactive activities, and cartoons designed to make learning biology a richer, more engaging experience."
