Learning Objectives

At the end of this simulation, you will be able to:
  • Forecast and evaluate the thermoregulation patterns exhibited by an animal within its native ecosystem.
  • Illustrate the variations in microclimate across limited geographic areas and anticipate the resultant impact on an organisms energy and water balances.
  •  Explore the mechanisms by which organisms manage their internal body temperature within a specific habitat, and analyze the advantages and disadvantages associated with each of these adaptation strategies.

How do virtual labs work?

Enhance students' involvement in science by immersing them in interactive learning scenarios. Create simulations for experiments, provide hands-on training in laboratory techniques, and convey theoretical concepts through captivating visual experiences to improve their overall long-term learning outcomes.

  • Access web-based simulations that are compatible with laptops, Chromebooks, tablets, and iPads, eliminating the need for software installation.
  • Incorporate a teacher dashboard for automated grading and monitoring of student progress.
  • Utilize embedded quizzes to assist students in mastering scientific content.
  • Comprehensive repository of educational materials, including learning resources, lab reports, videos, theory pages, graphics, and more.
