Aimed at A-level Biology students. This is simply some instructions on how to make a 2D model of a synapse from plasticene and various odds-and-ends, and some photos of what my less-able sixth-formers created.
The model can be used to illustrate the mechanism of a cholinergic synapse, and also to study the effects of different types of drug on the functioning of the synapse.
While the idea is quite simple, hopefully it will lead to some other ways to use modelling for explaining biological processes. A pound’s worth of inspiration?
