Required, call 210 9469641, from Monday to Friday 9:30- 16:30
60 minutes
The dates and times shown are indicative and can be altered upon request in advance. Any science experiment demonstration can be arranged to take place between Monday and Friday from 09:15 to 13:00.:15
120 students
1st grade of Lyceum
The students observe the basic cell features and relate a certain structure with a specific function.
A selection of experiments is realized with the help of the students, and it allows Biology to exit the school classroom and become an interactive experience! Starting from the study of a single cell, we discover the distinct levels of organization of life, and we compare different cells and biological systems.
Human body functions are introduced, and cell structure is related to cell function. This scientific demonstration focuses on two distinct biological systems, the cardiovascular and the nervous system.
How do different tissues look under a microscope? How can we identify one’s blood type? Can we fool our senses? Is it possible for music to affect our taste? We answer these, and many more questions in an interesting and interactive way.
