App Description
Go beyond the standard textbooks and take learning to the next level. Complete virtual experiments, consider exploratory scenarios, make predictions and conclusions—learn science in a new way.
Dive deep down into a virtual ocean to explore the relationship between bacteria and tubeworms living near hydrothermal vents. Investigate how the bacteria and tubeworms are able to survive without relying on energy from the sun.
• Look at underwater ecosystems near volcanically active areas where complex communities rely on chemical energy rather than sunlight for their survival.
• Learn how some organisms can synthesize organic compounds from inorganic compounds.
• Observe how chemosynthesis is carried out by certain species of bacteria.
• Carry out laboratory experiments to test for chemosynthetic reactions.
• Understand the symbiotic relationship between tubeworms and bacteria that exist near hydrothermal vents.
App features:
• Probe the depths of an ocean in an engaging, virtual environment.
• Set up and perform your own experiments on chemosynthetic bacteria.
• Make hypotheses and then analyze your data to draw conclusions.
• Receive hints and tips as you perform investigations.
• Test your knowledge of what you have learned and what you need to know.
• Want more? Check out the AC library in the App Store.
