How Do You Make A 3D Plant Cell For A School Project?
Hands-on learning helps the student retain knowledge better and grants a deeper understanding than textbooks alone. Building a cell model, especially a 3-D one, will help the student better visualize the cell and cell components. Making an edible cell model makes it even better–then the student gets to eat the finished product. Boil water on the stove. Use 3/4 the amount recommended on the gelatin package. Pour the gelatin mix into the hot water and stir until the gelatin mix is fully dissolved. Add an equal amount of cold water to the mix. Place a layer of clear plastic film inside the pan. This represents the cell membrane. Cut it large enough so there will be an extra inch on all sides that will extend out of the tin foil pan. Fill a small sealable plastic bag with water. Insert it in the cell to represent the vacuole. Pour the gelatin mix into the tin foil pan. Place the tin foil pan with the gelatin and water-filled bag into the refrigerator to cool. Remove the tin foil pan from
