Jell-O Cells…

This year for science we are studying Anatomy & Physiology. Our first lesson was an into to Anatomy & Physiology which ended with us making edible cells out of candy and Jell-O. It was great fun! Evelyn has to leave for ballet right as we were finishing, so she missed out on the picture taking.

Jell-O = cytoplasm

Peanut M&M = mighty mitochondria

Plain M&M = lysosomes

Smarties = Golgi body

Fruit Roll-up = endoplasmic reticulum

Sprinkles = ribosomes

Tubular sprinkles = centrioles

1/2 of an Orange Slice (we couldn’t find large gum drops) = nucleus
