The project was part of a wider Department for Children, Schools and Families (DCSF) programme to encourage more young people to continue studying science beyond the age of 16. It addresses in particular a commitment in the Government’s Ten Year Science and Innovation Framework 2004–2014 to “review the Building...

This protocol describes the process of isolating protoplasts from plant cells and then fusing the protoplasts in order to carry out further investigations. 

Plants from distantly related or unrelated species are unable to reproduce sexually as their genomes are incompatible. Protoplasts from unrelated...

In the context of visual effects in movies, students are challenged to investigate parallax by finding out how the distance of a nearby object is related to how far it appears to move when you view it from different perspectives.  The activity develops graph drawing and data analysis skills.
