Instructional Ideas
- Give learners a fluid mosaic model drawing on which they can take notes
- After the video, have learners explain the analogy between cell membranes and musk oxen
Classroom Considerations
- Must have a computer, Internet access, and a projection system
- Part 33 in a series of 37
Pros
- Relates musk oxen to a phospholipid
- Provides a complex drawing of cell membrane, but the focus is on phospholipids and proteins so as not to overwhelm learners
Cons
- None
