Genomics Digital Lab
Genomics Digital Lab: Plant Cells (GDL), the first in a series of GDL games, modules, and interactive simulations covering an array of topics in biology. GDL: Plant Cells, is an interactive game/lab about plants and how to keep them alive.

But why should you care about plants? Plants are the foundation for life on earth. The air we breath, the food we eat, and the gas in our cars - all come from plants! Your mission is to save our dying plant!
