Continue to investigate the wonderful world of cells, their structure and function, in detail and close up through multiple pathways in this CD-ROM.

Explore more on cells and find out about cellular transport, drugs and another simple cell investigation. In cellular transport find out what it is, what it does, where do cells go, and passive and active transport. In Simple Cell, review the interactive virtual cell (both plant and animal) that features in-depth text information and includes 3D models, high-powered microscope images, illustrations, movies and animations. And in More on Drugs find out about drugs and how they affect the human body.

Handles investigate cells through topics of interest to students. Topics in this section include nutrition, organelle diseases, health hazards, and lots of information about the mysteries of blood. Uncover the components of a food label, what is in the food that we eat, the cellular properties of nutrients and how they affect the living systems that use them. Carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, mineral elements, vitamins and RDA are all explained. Find out how different organelle diseases, such as Lou Gehrig's disease, Ragged muscle fibre disease, and Pompe's disease, effect our health and the organelles they impact. Learn about childhood diseases (Retinoblastoma, Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, Cystic Fibrosis, Tay-Sachs Disease) and help diagnose patients who have them in the Exam Room. In Health Hazards look at some common health hazards (poisons, pollution and lead) and how they affect us and our cells. Discover information on the mysteries of blood in About Blood. Investigate, plasma, red and white blood cells, and platelets, haemophilia A & B, leukaemia, other blood diseases and blood donation.

Conduct ethical investigations in Ethics with scenarios that include antibiotics and resistance, DNA forensics, pregnancy and drugs and choosing a baby's sex.

Movies of scientists at work are … movies of scientists at work. View movies, listen to the audio or read the script of Plant Mitosis Slide Preparation, Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), Gel Electrophoresis, Histology, Egg osmosis, and Pipetting, link to external websites, practice some of the procedures, and continue discussions.

Cellular Challenges provides a unique assessment component in the BioScope Quiz Show. Quizzes can also be modified to suit individual class needs. And Build A Cell will reinforce a student's understanding of organelles.

Search by terms, browse the glossary, access the knowledge pages, and examine the site index in the Info bank .

The User Manual is located in the Manual section of Product Information , as well as production details, reference material, and contact information. Support material that includes activity pages, is available through subscription. Further complementary websites are accessible with Internet connection through the evergreen BioScope World.

Many pages contain links to external websites, narration of terms and other text, stunning illustrations, animations and movies, links to detailed glossary definitions and knowledge pages. Every page visited is recorded in a tracking system so that the user or supervisor can see what parts have been investigated.

As students progress through the CD-ROM they will better understand the world of cells, their structure and function, and how cells are part of their daily lives.
