BIOLOGY WEB LINKS
GENERAL RESOURCES
 |
| • Online Molecular Notebook Some areas are available by subscription only |
| • MIT Biology Hypertextbook - covers material very similar to the material that is dealt with in Biology 101 plus Immunology (a Biology 102 topic). If you are using the Web to enrich this course, I strongly recommend this site. |
| •Life Science Dictionary - thanks to the BioTech site of Indiana University |
UNIT 1: INTRODUCTION
| • Access Excellence on keeping fish Good for goldfish experiment |
| •World Resources Institute - Outstanding web site on all aspects of ecology including biodiversity and habitat protection |
| • Environmental data, facts on all aspects of ecology |
| • Endangered Species - The Why Files folder on endangered species |
UNIT 2: BIOCHEMISTRY
| • What the Heck is an Enzyme? - A nice summary on enzymes from the U. of Kansas' Bugs in the News (a nifty site!) |
| •The Biology Project's Problem Sets and Tutorials- You should be ready to work on the first three problem sets. |
|
|
| •Cells Alive- The premiere site on cell biology |
| •Internal Membranous Structures - The U. of Texas take on the structure of eukaryotes with lots of detail |
UNIT 4: BIOENERGETICS
| •The Biology Project - The Cell Biology section has modules on metabolism and photosynthesis |
| •Access Excellence - True to its name, this is an excellent site on fermentation and its pivotal role in human history |
UNIT 5: MENDELIAN GENETICS
| •The Biology Project - Click on Cell
Biology, then click on Online Onion Root Tips: Phases of the Cell Cycle. Also check out
the problem set on Mendelian genetics. I think you will find both helpful. |
UNIT 6: MOLECULAR GENETICS
| •What the Heck - This sites take on genes |
| •The Biology Project - The University of Arizona comes to the rescue again with problems dealing with DNA, molecular genetics, and recombinant DNA |
| •The Why Files - On cloning from the Why Files |
| •Access Excellence - The premiere site on the practical implications of molecular genetics. |
| •DNA Testing - A web site
