AP Biology Lab Manual Resource Center Supplement to the first printing: This Supplement to the First Printing of the lab manual includes updated URLs, corrections, clarifications, sample data tables for Investigation 7, and an updated version of the AP Biology Equations and Formulas appendix. The second printing of the Teacher Manual, available for download below, incorporates these changes. The second printing of the Student Manual, available through the College Board store, has also been updated. Each PDF below contains the teacher edition (blue banner), followed by the student edition (red banner). Click on a big idea to download all the labs associated with that section. The teacher edition and student edition can also be purchased from the College Board Store. You may download the second printing of the full AP Biology Teacher manual (.pdf/19.2MB), which includes the Student manual. Many files on AP Central are saved in Adobe® PDF format.
NOVA | Rosalind Franklin's Legacy Posted 04.22.03 NOVA When it comes to her place in the discovery of the double helix structure of DNA, Rosalind Franklin has not received fair treatment. Or so maintains Lynne Osman Elkin, a professor of biological sciences at California State University, Hayward, who spends much of her time these days trying to clarify Franklin's significant role in one of the 20th century's greatest scientific achievements. In March 2003, Elkin published a lengthy article on Franklin in Physics Today, and she's hard at work on a biography. With all she did to make Watson and Crick's discovery possible, Rosalind Franklin was essentially "a de facto collaborator," says Lynne Osman Elkin. Within reach NOVA: How close did Franklin actually come to deciphering the structure of DNA? Elkin: She was very close. The other thing was base-pairing, which was Watson's brilliant idea, made possible by chemical information supplied by Jerry Donohue. Picture perfect No. Great potential Would she have? Oh, sure.

iPlant Collaborative Web Portal | The iPlant Collaborative: Empowering a New Plant Biology EvoLiteracy – Biology and Science Videos | Evolution Literacy The videos and animations below (180+) follow the chronological order of biology and science topics discussed in my courses for college Biology Majors (each video-/animation-link is connected to additional resources, including weblinks to visuals and/or relevant platforms). I have compiled this information with my BioHonors students, I thank them much for their commitment, support and enthusiasm. Note that, with time, some of the links below might change, I will try to update them as much as possible, but if visitors have observations, suggestions or think that alternative or additional links should be included here, please provide that information in the “comments” section at the end of this page — GPC.
