For students learning biology at introductory levels, one of the most significant instructional barriers is their lack of preparation in chemistry. In upper-division college chemistry and biology courses, students employ ball-and-stick models in orde

Teaching Biology concepts such as molecular genetics and inheritance patterns to students in K-12 and college is challenging. The created Super Bowl Activity uses kinesthetic and visual models and a "hook" to engage students in the material. Through

pH is an essential biological concept with critical importance at various scales, from the molecular level, dealing with blood buffers, homeostasis, and proton gradients, all the way up to the ecosystem level, with soil chemistry and acid rain. Howev

Using digital holographic cinematography, we quantify and compare the feeding behavior of free-swimming copepods, Acartia tonsa, on nutritional prey (Storeatula major) to that occurring during exposure to toxic and non-toxic strains of Karenia brevis

Student engagement that yields positive learning outcomes may be tricky to measure. While teachers might consider behaviors such as hand raising as evidence of engagement, observation alone fails to capture motivational factors behind true engagement

Chaetognaths are one of the most numerous organisms in the zooplankton community off the coast of North Carolina. During two years of offshore sampling in the late winter to early spring, sixteen chaetognath species were identified, four of which had

Calanoid copepods from seven families in three superfamilies were exposed to a controlled near-field hydrodynamic stimulus and their escape reactions were recorded using high-speed videographic techniques. Copepod species have two distinct mechanisms

Copepods respond to velocity gradients in the ambient fluid generated by the move- ment of nearby predators. Escape behavior of several species in response to hydrodynamic stimuli has been analyzed under non-turbulent conditions; however, copepods no

Copepods have the mechanoreceptive abilities to detect velocity gradients generated by approaching predators and the ability to respond to these predators within milliseconds. Ctenophores produce a low-velocity feeding current to entrain slow-swimmin

Larval stages of the ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi rely on metazoan prey, such as Acartia tonsa nauplii and copepodites, to support high growth rates. However, M. leidyi larvae 2.0 mm, nauplii REs plateaued at a mean of 91.03 ± 1.70%. All larvae 2.5
