Introduction to cells
[*] Learn something about the cell from the following web site :http://www.cellsalive.com
1. (a) In the left frame, click CELL BIOLOGY, then choose " How big is a ......? " (interactive, 互動)
Enjoy the short movie (The flash plug-in is needed).
(b) Try this *swf file : The size of cells relative to each other [intranet version] [ VERY INTERESTING ! ]
2. Browse CELL GALLERY to view a variety of cells.
