Looks at the biology of bats, which are the only group of mammals capable of active flight, a factor which dictates their morphology. Flight, heterothermy and echolocation allow the majority of bats to...
Looks at the basic biology, diversity, classification, morphology and behaviour of arthropods. Provides an opportunity to discover the diversity of arthropods in a given ecological niche. Approximately three...
Describes the molecular-level mechanisms of photosynthesis. Examines the taxonomy of plants and the life cycles in each group - nonvascular plants (mosses and liverworts), primitive vascular plants (ferns...
A brief tutorial describing how to use Microcosm and MEMB ('Multimedia Encyclopaedia of Mammalian Biology’) to explore the Comparative Brains Trail. Approximately one hour of teaching material.
A CD-ROM-based introduction to cell structure, function and processes. In three modules: Introduction to the Cell; Plant and Animal Cells; Cell Processes.
Examines the biology of the influenza virus, how it infects humans and is fought by the human immune system, and how it evolves new strains to risk further pandemics.
A tutorial describing how to use Microcosm and MEMB ('Multimedia Encyclopaedia of Mammalian Biology’) to explore the Bat Echolocation Trail. Approximately 1.5 hours of teaching material.
Examines in details the adaptations found in different plants for the carbon-fixing step of photosynthesis and discusses the possibilities of breeding the ingenious devices of some tropical plants into our...
One of the factors affecting the behaviour of cultured insect blood is the adhesiveness of the cells to objects in their environment. Study is made of the haematocytes, when cultured on glass, with one...
