The Cell: Unit of Life – #TC201 This program shows the kinds of cells and emphasizes the fact that all cells have a common organization and how all cells carry out similar biochemical processes. |
 |
The
Outer Envelope – #TC202
Here students become acquainted with the properties of the plasma membrane, how it governs the kinds of molecules that go in and out of cells, and how cells feed by engulfi ng (phagocytosis) and drink in fl uids by pinocytosis. |

How
Cells Obtain Energy –
#TC203
This program illustrates the mechanisms of photosynthesis and cellular respiration. It introduces ATP, the universal energy carrier molecules that supplies energy hungry reactions, and shows the structure and function of Chloroplasts and Mitochondria, energy transforming organelles. |

How
Cells Are Controlled –
#TC204
Illustrations show how genetic instructions carried on DNA are transcribed into RNA, leading to the production of specific enzymes that control the thousands of biochemical processes going on in living cells. |
 |
How
Cells Reproduce –
#TC205
This program shows how DNA replicates, how copy errors occur and are fixed by repair enzymes, and how DNA is compressed into chromosomes making possible mitosis and cell division. |
