Single-cell Organisms
The Earth is the only planet known to us where liquid water ─ the source of life ─ exists.
Learn moreStructure of the Forest
Forests are more than an accumulation of trees. The individual tree is more than a valuable source of wood. From its roots to its crown, it offers habitats to a variety of the most different creatures. The older a tree, the more valuable it becomes to many forest inhabitants. And even in death it is still full of life. If you take a closer look at a forest, you notice that the plants grow to different heights. They form storeys like those of a house. At the top level there are only the big trees. From a bird’s perspective we see that the highest specimens in the forest form a closed canopy. In summer, the treetops resemble big parasols shading the forest floor. Depending upon how much sunlight filters into the depths, this has consequences for the forest vegetation.
Learn moreBees, Bumblebees and Wasps
Our smallest domestic animals, the honey bees, belong to the insect order of hymenoptera just like bumblebees, wasps and ants. Many of these insects live in huge colonies with division of labour and a caste system. However, there also are less conspicuous small hymenoptera like, for instance, the mason- bee, which on its own builds complex nests for its offspring and supplies it with food. We haven’t even noticed that it has followed us into our human settlements and we don’t consider that we are taking away the habitats from these small interesting insects. This film pays attention to all these important plant pollinators, allows insights into the work of bees and wasps and shows how we can observe and protect them.
Learn moreHormones
Hormones influence our lives. Just like our nervous system, they transmit information in our bodies. When our hormonal balance is disrupted, our behaviour changes and we may fall ill. But what are hormones? Why have they got such a big influence? Where are they produced? And how do they work? The film leads us inside the human body – into the world of hormones. We learn that there are various hormones, where these are produced and how they work. We get acquainted with people whose lives have been influenced by a hormone deficiency or a hormone excess.
Learn moreGroundwater
When we open the tap, it gushes out: drinking water – clear and clean. It is our most important victual and can be replaced by NOTHING. On average every inhabitant of Germany consumes 125 litres every day! But where does our drinking water come from?
Learn moreHanf
Hanf, auch als Cannabis bekannt, gehört zu den ältesten Kulturpflanzen. Während er heute zumeist als Rauschmittel und mit Begriffen wie Gras, Marihuana oder Hasch assoziiert wird, galt er einst als Heil- und Nahrungsmittel und als Rohstoff zur Papier- und Textilverarbeitung.
Learn moreWolf
Canis lupus, der Urahn der Haushunde, war einst auf nahezu der gesamten Nordhalbkugel heimisch, ehe er ab dem 15. Jahrhundert systematisch verfolgt und beinahe ausgerottet wurde.
Learn moreRote Bete
Rote Bete, je nach Landstrich auch als rote Rübe, Rahne, oder Rande bezeichnet, ist ein schmackhaftes Wintervorratsgemüse mit langer Tradition.
Learn moreGenetic Code Sun
Life on Earth assumes a large variety of shapes. There is plant life and animal life. Protozoa live alongside human beings, ants alongside fish and elephants, a blowball alongside a cactus.
Learn moreCommon European Adder
The common (European) adder is extremely wide-spread across the globe.
Learn moreBiotechnology III
Biotechnological knowledge and applications can be divided into several subareas. For easy orientation and distinction, the respective fields have been assigned a specific colour. The second part of this biotechnology series covered red biotechnology, which is the medical field. In this part, green biotechnology, which refers to agriculture, white (industrial) biotechnology and grey biotechnology, which refers to environmental protection, are dealt with.
