Virtual Plant Cell: Into Aquaporins

Virtual Plant Cell: Into Aquaporins highlights the important role that aquaporin proteins play in shuttling water, carbon dioxide and other molecules vital to good plant health, into and out of plant cells. This VPC: Into Aquaporin video supports the Planting Science: Classifying Systems in Cells lesson plan developed by the ARC Centre of Excellence for Translational Photosynthesis. Virtual Plant Cell is a suite of immersive, educational virtual reality and 360° video experiences created for classroom use by the ARC Centre of Excellence in Plant Energy Biology: www.plantenergy.edu.au/VPC
