Why are sloths so slow—and how do they survive like that? In this science discussion course for teens, we’ll explore the biology behind one of nature’s most fascinating animals. From their unusual vision and low-energy muscle structure to their skeletal adaptations and survival strategies, we’ll use real scientific research to uncover the secrets of sloth slowness. Each class includes interactive slides, thought-provoking questions, and group discussion. Perfect for students curious about zoology, physiology, or weird animal science!

6 週間以上レッスン 1:
Meet the Sloths & What They See
Discover the two sloth species and their rainforest habitats. Learn about their slow movements, tree-dwelling habits, and symbiotic relationships with algae and fungi. We’ll also explore sloth vision, focusing on rod monochromacy (colorblindness) and how it affects their behavior and survival. 60 分のオンラインライブレッスン
レッスン 2:
The Sloth Metabolism – Energy, Slowness, & Survival
Explore how sloths’ slow metabolism and low energy requirements shape their lifestyle. We’ll discuss how their long digestion time and energy-efficient system help them survive in the wild, allowing them to thrive despite their extreme slowness. 60 分のオンラインライブレッスン
レッスン 3:
Anatomy of Stillness – Skeletal & Muscular Systems
Uncover how sloths are built for hanging out—literally. We’ll explore their flexible limbs, muscular sling system, and skeletal structure that supports their slow lifestyle in the trees. 60 分のオンラインライブレッスン
レッスン 4:
Inside the Sloth Muscle – Contraction & ATP Use
Learn how sloth muscles work at the microscopic level. We’ll break down how muscle contraction, fiber types, and ATP activity could contribute to a sloth's slowness. 60 分のオンラインライブレッスン
