Action Potential Model

ABOUT THIS PRODUCT:

Make action potentials easy to understand with our fun game!

Your students can explore how a sensory neurone converts a stimulus from the outside into a signal that is relayed to the central nervous system.

• First, your students make the game from the colorful parts of the template and then they play the game.
• Players roll the dice to gain sodium ions to create an action potential and race down a sensory neurone to reach the synapse.
• First player to release the neurotransmitter wins!
• Developed with biology teacher Jon Hale.
• Takes about 15 minutes to play!

This game teaches students about generator potentials, action potentials, voltage-gated sodium channels, sodium-potassium pumps and more!
