Question

You make a model of a cell in a large, rectangular, clear plastic container filled with the following: gelatin, green M&M's, red licorice, several beans, one small inflated balloon, candy sprinkles, and an avocado seed.

How is using the model to study cells helpful?

Answer 1

Models are tools such as diagrams, pictures, objects, or descriptions that are used to represent another object, idea, or concept.

Models are useful in biology as they are helpful in explaining and describing biological molecules and structures such as cells, DNA, and proteins, as well as organs and tissues.
