3D Plant Cell Model Project... I have a few questions. Help?
My teacher suggested using candle gel and a plastic box. And that's it. The rest is up to the students. And I'm absolutely lost about what I'm suppose to do.
For the nucleus, I'm thinking of using a Styrofoam ball, and I bought play-dough for the organelles. But, I'm not sure about the candle gel. I do want to use it, since I heard that it looks pretty cool and all, but how does it work? Should I melt (I think I'm suppose to melt it) it and pour it into the box THEN put the rest of the organelles in it? Do I put the organelles first? Am I even suppose to melt the gel?
Somebody please relieve me of all this candle gel related questions, please. I'm trying to stay out of using common house junk like I know the rest of the class will, and I *need* to get a good grade on this to make up for all the work I missed during the weeks I was absent. So I have to impress the teacher, or rather, live up to all his ridiculously high expectations he has for me. Also, is there any other ideas that you might have for a plant cell model that doesn't involve candle gel? No food materials please. So... help?

I think the candle gel your teacher is referring to is an actual wet gel-type substance and not candle wax. You don't have to melt it because it's already goopy. Try looking at a craft store. You may need to ask someone for what you are looking for but you should be able to find it without too much trouble. You will just be able to insert your play-dough organelles right in and move them around as you want. The gel should not harden (at least short term, I'm not sure about if you let it sit for a really long time). I hope that helps. Good luck!

i think of interest foyer is the terrific save for this challenge. I made an animal cellular. purchase a Styrofoam ball with regard to the dimensions of a basketball. Use candies for the areas of the cellular. listed under are some areas that's advisable to comprise. Nucleus cellular wall (plant cellular basically) cellular membrane Chloroplast (plant cellular basically) Mitochondria Vacuole Lysosome Cytoplasm Ribosome Endoplasmic Reticulum Golgi bodies Oh, and you in all probability ought to label them on the cellular sort. And their function.
