Lab-Aids™ Molecules of Metabolism Kit: Understanding Digestion and Respiration

Description

Student will be able to see and appreciate how large molecules are converted to smaller molecules that the body can use. Cellular respiration is addressed by illustration how Adonosine Triphosphate (ATP) the energy molecule of life is formed by the systemic release of potential energy trapped in the chemical bonds in food molecules. The major molecules of the Kreb's Cycle (aerobic respiration) are also illustrated in this kit.
