• 9 different proteins
• 7 glucose molecules
• 4 oxygen atoms
• 4 hydrogen atoms
• 4 electrons

• 6 laminated coloured legends

Add creativity and flexibility to your demonstrations of membrane and protein processes with this set of magnetic model pieces. Using the included magnetic pieces, you can model basic cell structure, cell size, ETC cellular respiration, ETC photosynthesis, nerve impulse, membrane transport, diffusion, endocytosis, exocytosis, and more. Begin by building a simple cell membrane using only phospholipids. From that point, proteins and sugars are added, increasing the complexity of the membrane. You can continue to increase the complexity by building organelles using the same pieces. This unique kit allows you to illustrate how the same molecules are used repeatedly in different biological processes. Partial assembly required.

Includes a DVD with easy to follow instructions and video lessons.
