Ward's® A Study of Population Growth Lab Activity
Use Mathematical Models to Study Population Dynamics

  • Uses living yeast cells
  • includes a teacher's guide
  • Estimated class/lab time required: 60 minutes
Introduce your students to the contributing factors of population size as they study living yeast cells. They will use mathematical models to calculate and compare parameters such as population growth rate, doubling time, and carrying capacity. Students will then compare experimental data to human population growth rates and discuss possible solutions to control population sizes. The kit includes enough materials for 12 setups, a teacher’s guide, and student copymaster. A hemacytometer, recommended, is available separately. Note: Includes perishable materials. Please specify delivery date.
