Multimedia Learning Objects: Science

In order to explore the relation of shapes that build lattices, students place 12 shapes to try and create a lattice that is as compact as possible. Different shapes are used but not all shapes will work in creating lattices.

These animations help identify the 'parts list' and mechanisms that are involved in getting a signal from outside the cell all the way to the nucleus to change gene expression through three fundamentally different types of signal transduction pathways: nuclear receptor signaling, g-protein coupled receptor signaling, and receptor tyrosine kinase pathways.
