This article discusses a possible application for plant cells. Here they are being used to generate a 5G signal for Bluetooth devices. This article can help students understand that cells can be developed and used in a multitude of ways, and that they are not limited to the functions they preform in our bodies. Referencing this article also creates a link between the cell in biology and sustainable energy

This article discusses stem cells. I would discuss the importance of stem cells in the medical world, refering to their use in many areas of research such as cancer research or research for cures for infections. They can also be used to grow tissue for regenerative surgeries. This helps students to again understand the importance of cells, outside of the role they play in our bodies.

Experiment - viewing and identifying plant and animal cells

22351418 — 2023-11-08 15:42:25 UTC

Students will be given the opportunity to view and try to identify plant and animal cells using a microscope. This will help them revisit and remember the structures of animal and plant cells while also building their laboratory skills. This activity links in L.O from NOS. It also gives students an opportunity to develop their key skills around working with others, communicating, managing myself and managing information and thinking.

This article discusses genetically modified food. Genetically modified food such as 'golden rice' has been adapted to aid in fights against famine, nutrient deficiencies and starvation. This show the broader role of science, and how our interests as a society can shape our research

This video can be used as an introduction to what cells are and where we find them before taking a closer look at their structure and its functions

6. Video Resource

22351418 — 2023-12-06 15:34:50 UTC

This video can help to summarise the differences between plant and animal cells for students. Students could watch this video and then make a table comparing the two types of cells for themselves.
