...Noel Pauller The process of photosynthesis is included in Unit 3: Cellular Energetics of the AP Biology Course and Exam Description (CED). Many teachers use the floating leaf disk assay from “AP Biology Investigative Labs: An Inquiry Based Approach” to teach this biochemical process; but often face...

...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...

... present a set of activities designed to help students overcome the most common misunderstandings about CO 2 , from its sheer existence as a mass-containing molecule to its complementary roles in photosynthesis and respiration. Through these activities, students will be able to apply their knowledge...

... explore photosynthesis in the context of carbohydrate partitioning. Carbohydrate partitioning refers to the distribution of photosynthesis products from source organs, such as leaves, to growing or storage tissues. These cost- and time-effective modules help students develop a more integrated...
