Neuron modelling kit
Captivate your classroom and explore multiple concepts with our large and small foam neuron models! Students can use the Neuron Modelling Kit© to:
- Distinguish between multipolar neurons, bipolar neurons, unipolar neurons and interneurons, and determine their location and function in the human body.
- Construct a model and identify parts of a multipolar neuron.
- Use myelin sheath pieces to demonstrate differences between two types of neuroglia in the central and peripheral nervous systems.
- Construct simple and complex neural pathways and examine the overall effect on neuronal firing at excitatory and inhibitory synapses.
Each kit contains enough for one group:
- Large Neuron Models (10 pieces for assembly) 2
- Large Schwann Cells (Velcro pieces) 10
- Multipolar Neurons 2
- Bipolar Neuron 1
- Unipolar Neuron 1
- Interneurons 4
- Small Schwann Cells 10
- Oligodendrocytes 2
- Sheet of Nuclei Stickers 1
