Biochemistry Lesson Plans

  1. Active Transport Across The Plasma Membrane- The student will be able to comprehend that energy is required to move substances across the cell membrane against the concentration gradient.
  2. BioChem Demos- This collection of more than 70 classroom tested biology, biochem and chemistry demonstrations was shared at the 1997 annual convention of the National Association of Biology teachers.
  3. Chemistry of Living Things- In this activity students investigate and discover where three of the four macromolecules are found...in different food substances.
  1. Chromosome Karyotyping- Students will be able to demonstrate a microtechnique for reliable chromosomal analysis of leucocytes obtained from peripheral blood.
  2. Constant Craving- In this lesson, students investigate the ways that various addictive drugs interact with the human nervous system.
  3. Constructing A Dichotomous Key- To construct and use dichotomous keys.
  4. Enzymes- The activity will demonstrate enzyme activity and how changes in the physical conditions affects their performance. Students will work with active enzymes and explore the boundaries of their activity.
  5. Molecular Shuffle- To observe how a selectively permeable membrane works.
  6. Natural and Synthetic Fiber- To identify wool, cotton, linen, and silk with the aid of a microscope.
  7. Putting Toxicogenomics to the Test- In this lesson, students evaluate the pros and cons of a new approach to food, chemical, and drug testing which utilizes "DNA chips" to test the toxicity of chemical compounds.
  8. Photosynthesis, Respiration, and the ATP-ADP Cycle- The objective of this activity will be to demonstrate the three processes of photosynthesis, respiration, and the molecular interaction between ADP and ATP and the process by which they lose and gain phosphates in the process of energy conversion.
  9. The Chemistry of Water- To discuss the phenomenological properties of water.
  10. The Coding of Protein Molecules By D.N.A.- Use paper models to demonstrate how DNA controls protein synthesis.
  11. The Role of Enzymes- To explore the role of enzymes in chemical reactions. To determine what kinds of cells contain more catalase than others.
  12. What's the Matter?- Introduction to the properties of matter.
