Videos

I thought the videos were very interesting, but very complex. I'm very used to learning about the processes within the cell through textbooks and two dimensional figures, and it was very different seeing it in a three-dimensional sense. The most interesting part was the mitochondria, which literally looked like a miniature animal crawling along a string. Another aspect the videos covered was the interconnectedness that occurs within the cell. Each part of the cell is dependent on every other part, a concept I failed to understand when previously learnign about the cell. Originally, I learned each part has a unique role and sat in the same place in the cell. The video also did a great job showing that every part of the cell is constantly moving, and organelles are running into each other. Overall, the videos were a strong visual aid, and I hope we continue to view many more.
