Life Processes

5 interactive Integrated Science simulations on life processes.

Integrated Science · Life Processes Plant tropisms: phototropism, hydrotropism, gravitropism A bean plant grows in a pot: the shoot and root lengthen day by day. Drag the light source (or the water source) left and right and... Ages 12–13
Integrated Science · Life Processes Circulatory and respiratory systems – heart rate during activity The four-chambered heart contracts to pump blood through the pulmonary circuit (heart → lungs → heart) and the systemic circuit (heart →... Ages 13–14
Integrated Science · Life Processes Photosynthesis – counting oxygen bubbles in pondweed A classic experiment: a sprig of pondweed (Elodea) sits in a beaker of water under an inverted funnel with a collecting test tube. In... Ages 12–13
Integrated Science · Life Processes Asexual and sexual reproduction in organisms Play a four-step animation of one reproduction method: stem cutting, air layering, or budding in Hydra (asexual), or pollination –... Ages 12–13
Integrated Science · Life Processes Life cycle and growth curve of a butterfly, frog and bean plant Pick an organism and press Play: the life-cycle stages (egg → caterpillar → pupa → butterfly; egg → tadpole → frog; seed → seedling →... Ages 12–13
