Welcome to Webcytology, an educational website on unicellular biology created for the ThinkQuest contest. Webcytology is especially designed for students between the 5th and 12th grades and their teachers, although anyone interested in learning more about unicellular biology can enjoy Webcytology's resources. Below are descriptions of the many sections available to you at Webcytology.

Simulation[click here]
The Simulation allows you to create your own unicellular species which is then placed into one of several virtual "worlds." As you create your species, you'll learn a great deal about many different types of cells and their organelles. Over time, you will be able to watch your organism reproduce, interact with other people's organisms, and contribute in its own way to the balance of nature.
