Plant Cell Model Kit
Colorful, teaching model designed specifically to withstand years of active student investigations of the plant cell. Excellent contrasting model to be used with the animal cell model (FB1370) for teaching the differences between plant and animal cells. Model is made of resilient, non-toxic, damage-proof EVA foam. A detailed instructor’s guide includes five inquiry-based lab activities, reproducible worksheets, complete background information, cross-curriculum activities and assessment ideas. Topics covered include cell structure and function, osmosis, photosynthesis and plant pigments.
Flower Model Kit
Colorful, budget-priced teaching model made of resilient non-toxic, damage-proof EVA foam. This rugged foam material allows for hands- on manipulation of the model without concern for breakage or damage. An excellent 3-D visual reference for teaching the entire life cycle of a flowering plant. Detailed instructor’s guide includes complete background information, reproducible worksheets, cross-curriculum activities and assessment ideas. Topics include pollination, fertilization and structure and function of all flower parts.
Flower Model, Dicot
Representing a greatly enlarged, complete flower, this 17" x 14" x 10" non-breakable vinyl plastic model teaches the reproductive function of flowers, angiosperm pollination and fertilization. Three petals, four sepals and four stamens are detachable. Two anthers are sectioned open to expose pollen grains. The ovary is dissected to reveal the seven-celled female gametophyte. Pollination is demonstrated by six pollen grains that have adhered to the stigma. One of them has gener- ated a pollen tube that has penetrated the micropyle. Depicting the condition just prior to double fertilization, the tube nucleus, closely followed by the two sperm cells, can be observed near the apex of the pollen tube. Twenty-seven hand-coded structures are identified in the accompanying key.
Flower Model Activity Set
This affordable model accurately depicts the essential parts of a flower. Cross-sectional view shows the process of fertilization from anther to ovary. 18" x 24" high-impact plastic. Includes a detailed activity note- book, model key, glossary, blackline master and full color overhead transparency.
Leaf Structure Model
Students can view the structure of the leaf from all angles. The model shows the 3-D histological structure of a Beech leaf magnified 1,500 times. Clearly shown is the upper epidermis, palisade layer, parenchyma cells and lower epidermis with stomates. Elements of the vascular tissue are likewise shown in cross section. Model measures 35 x 37 x 11 cm.
