Life in Cellville™: Mindy Membrane and the Battle of the Oils — Printable Edition

What happens when different fats roll into Cellville?

Join Mindy Membrane in this specially designed Printable Edition of Life in Cellville™: Mindy Membrane and the Battle of the Oils.

Mindy has an important job. She surrounds Cellville, protecting the cell and controlling what moves in and out. Her flexible membrane is built from phospholipids, and keeping it working well is an important job.

But one day, two very different groups arrive. The Flow Friends bring fats that can provide building blocks for fresh membrane lipids. Then the Sticky Crowd rolls into town, and Cellville soon finds itself facing trouble.

As free radicals begin damaging membranes throughout Cellville, Mike, Gigi, Lenny, Vicky, Nora, and the rest of the crew feel the effects. Now Mindy and the Cellville Crew must work together to face the damage and help their membranes rebuild.

Through colorful characters, rhyme, and adventure, young readers discover the science of cell membranes, phospholipids, dietary fats, free radicals, antioxidants, and cellular repair.

Unlike the full color Digital Edition designed for screen reading, this Printable Edition has been specially reformatted for 8.5 × 11 paper with printer friendly white backgrounds, while keeping the colorful Cellville characters and important science illustrations.

• The complete Mindy Membrane and the Battle of the Oils story
