Typical Plant Cell on Stand

A three-dimensional model of a plant cell, designed to show its internal structures as seen under an electron microscope. The model features a portion of the cell wall removed to reveal the ectoplast, endoplast, tonoplast, vacuoles, nuclear structure, plastids, and mitochondria. It also includes a base and a numbered English key card for identification of the different parts.

Size 17 x 13 x 30 cm approx. Weight 480 g approx.

Electron Microscopic Detail: The model accurately represents the structures of a plant cell as seen under an electron microscope.

Cut-Away View: A section of the cell wall is removed to expose internal components.

Key Structures: The model highlights key plant cell structures, including:

• Ectoplast: The outer layer of the cytoplasm.
• Endoplast: The inner portion of the cytoplasm.
• Tonoplast: The membrane surrounding the vacuole.
• Vacuoles: Storage sacs within the cell.
• Nuclear Structure: The nucleus and its components.
• Plastids: Organelles involved in photosynthesis and other functions (e.g., chloroplasts).
• Mitochondria: The "powerhouse" of the cell, producing energy.

Base: The model is mounted on a sturdy base for stability and display.

English Key Card: A numbered key card is included to help identify and study the different parts of the cell.
