MendelWeb (includes Mendel's original papers)
Bugs in the News (microbiology information)
Digital Learning Center for Microbial Ecology  (They have a Microbe of the Month section with
          different ones featured each month, The Curious Microbe contains essays on 'amazing microbes and curious
          environments,
          Microbes in the News is self explanatory, and the Microbe Zoo, where you can visit dirtland, the animal pavilion
          (check out the  Poo Corner), and the Space Adventure.)
Microbes: Invisible Invaders, Amazing Allies  (A very interesting site for the young microbiologist.
          Meet a Microbe, read the definition of a microbe, visit the microbe dictionary, lean interesting facts, and take
          a microbe quiz.)
Microbial World  (This is an excellent and comprehensive site offering profiles on 33 microorganisms.
          You can use the clickable globe to choose a category or skip down to the list of profiles to choose a particular microbe.
          The descriptions are well written, easy to comprehend, and augmented with images.)
Protist Image Data  (Excellent images of selected algae and protozoa, which are not easy to find.)

Entomology Image Gallery (Iowa State Univ. site containing hundreds of bug pictures)

The Interactive Frog Dissection (An On-line Tutorial)

Virtual Frog Dissection Kit  (A great way to dissect a frog. Excellent interactive instructions as well
          as a Virtual Frog Builder Game. There's also a tutorial available.)
