Visible Body helps students tackle the most difficult introductory biology concepts with interactive 3D models.

  • With our animal cell, plant cell, bacterial cell, blood cell, and DNA models, students can learn cell structure and function without a microscope.
  • Students can explore the evolutionary relationships between different groups of organisms with our phylogenetic tree model.
  • Interactive simulations of photosynthesis, cellular respiration, mitosis, and meiosis give students a hands-on way to master complex biological processes.
