Operation--Cell Styled


A new game about cells has been released by Milton Bradley! The company is now selling a new version of the popular game, Operation, called Operation--Cell Styled. This game is exactly like Operation except instead of operating on a person, people will be operating on cells. On the cards there will be a clue as to which organelle they must remove. The person who correctly identifies and removes the most cell parts wins! 

Examples:

A card could say: 
“These are vesicles produced by the golgi apparatus; it’s involved in intracellular digestion; when cells bring in macromolecules, the vesicle fuses to _____ and the contents are digested.”  

What is the cell part that has to be removed?

Lysosome! 











Another card could say:
“This cell part stores substances and are membranous sacs;  it’s larger and singular in plants.”

What is the cell part that has to be removed?

Vacuoles! 












The day this game hit the stores, we bloggers at Simply Cells went out and bought one. In-between blogging and talking about cells, we play this game to pass the time. It’s lots of fun and sure to be the best game of the year!
