...Jennifer Ferguson Hofeld Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are core concepts in high school biology, as they are at the core of all living things. However, perhaps because students can’t see them happening, they very often have difficulty understanding them. Further, students often come...

... carbon dioxide photosynthesis cellular respiration fuel combustion global warming weight loss Life on Earth, at its most fundamental, can be described as the acquisition and use of energy for the conversion of smaller, less-organized carbon-based molecules into larger, more organized carbon...

...Lace A. Svec Undergraduate introductory biology students at the university level often struggle to trace movement of matter and energy through catabolic and anabolic processes in biological systems. A sequential guided simulation of cellular respiration and photosynthesis provides students...

... mitochondrial membrane to show how this specific process in cellular respiration produces ATP. The activity works best as a supplement after you have already discussed the electron transport chain in lecture but can be used prior to instruction to help students visualize the processes that occur...

...Joshua S. White; April C. Maskiewicz Using a design-based research approach, we developed a data-rich problem (DRP) set to improve student understanding of cellular respiration at the ecosystem level. The problem tasks engage students in data analysis to develop biological explanations. Several...
