Biology with Calculators
by  David Masterman
 Kelly Redding

Biology with Calculators has 31 experiments in cell respiration, photosynthesis, membrane diffusion, osmosis, human physiology, transpiration, fermentation, and other important biology concepts. The complete table of contents is shown on the right. Experiments are included for 12 Vernier biology sensors. This book supports seven AP Biology lab activities.

Students perform
the Transpiration lab from
Biology with Calculators.

Each Vernier Lab Book includes:

  • Complete student experiments with materials list, step-by-step instructions, data tables, and questions.
  • Teacher Information section for each experiment with complete directions for setting up experiments, helpful hints, and sample graphs and data.
  • Word-processing files of the student sections on a CD so that any experiment may be easily edited to your specifications (Microsoft Word for Macintosh and Windows files). Each CD includes both the computer and calculator version of each student experiment!
