      I grow cells in a test tube, so they don’t get all the nice nutrients that they would get if they were in a human body.

      That’s where I come in. Every few days I give the cells something we call ‘growth media’. It is a liquid full of all the nutrients that the cells need to live and grow!

      Hope that answers your question 🙂
