Students uncover the structure and function of phospholipids, how cell membranes form, and how water and ions move in and out of cells via transport proteins. This is a kit you will use over and over as your curriculum progresses to deepen student understanding.
- 50 individual phospholipid molecule models demonstrate hydrophobic and hydrophilic concepts to create monolayers, micelles, and bilayers
- Water molecule models show polarity and how water interacts with cell membranes
- Bilayer membrane model creates a cell structure that is flexible yet sturdy
- Active and passive transport is made easy with 5 different proteins, ion models, and ATP
Students can model different conditions then predict which way water will move making vocabulary like hypertonic, hypotonic, and isotonic more memorable. This is a kit you will use over and over as your curriculum progresses to deepen student understanding.
