Paramecium Model
Product Code : SCL-ZM-11364
Quick answer: This Paramecium Model is an enlarged, dissection-style teaching model of the ciliate Paramecium, mounted on a base. It gives a whole class a large physical reference for the structure of a single-celled organism and complements microscope lessons in protozoology. Lab Exports manufactures it in Delhi for schools, colleges and universities.

Uses
In protozoology, Paramecium is the usual example of a ciliate: a slipper-shaped cell that swims by beating its cilia and sweeps food particles into its oral groove. Within one cell it carries out the work that tissues do in larger animals, which makes it a good starting point for lessons on unicellular organisation.
Live specimens are small and fast, so a microscope view rarely holds still long enough for a class discussion. The enlarged model gives the teacher a fixed reference to point at while students compare it with their own microscope observations, drawings and charts.
- Show a live culture or a prepared slide of Paramecium under the microscope.
- Use the enlarged model to point out the body form and internal structure.
- Ask students to sketch and label the cell from the model.
- Revise the functions of the parts with a short identification exercise.
Key features
- Enlarged scale so the whole class can see the structure at once
- Dissection-style presentation that opens up the cell for structural study
- Base mounting keeps the model stable on a bench or display shelf
- Complements slides, live cultures and charts in protozoology practicals
- Useful for identification exercises and revision
