Teach water uptake by the roots with our interactive paper model

Use our innovative model to teach water uptake by the roots and into the xylem.

Your students make the specialised plant cells then use them to make a root. They can then follow how water is taken up by root hair cells and transported through the cell wall (apoplastic) or the cytoplasmic (symplastic) routes into the xylem. Students move model water molecules to visualise the alternative pathways. A great way to understand this topic.

Buy once, print forever!

The model shows root structure, Casparian strip, xylem structure, root hair cells, plant cell specialisation.

You can link it to our leaf structure model to show how transpirational pull operates to draw up water into the root.

Includes colourful classroom Powerpoint presentation!

Takes just 30 minutes!

Dimensions: 26cm x 16cm / 10in x 6in

Download includes: Colour and black-and-white templates, plus a classroom PowerPoint with background science and assembly instructions.
