Cell City

Your Task The technology to shrink and inject a full size science student into the blood stream of a living human is now available. Your mission, if you decide to accept it, is to navigate your way from the blood stream to a human liver cell, enter that cell, and study the internal organelles of that cell. Sound like a fun vacation? You will discover that a city is an excellent analogy for a cell.
