Lysosomes (Clean up crew for the cell) Organelle which recycles waste, worn out cell parts, and food molecules. Quickly breaks down a cell when it dies. EQ-If I am made of cells, what makes up a cell?
Nutrient: carbohydrates Source: potatoes, pasta, rice, bread, fruits & vegetables Why its needed: energy for cell, to make cell parts
Nutrient: lipids Source: fats in butter, oils, nuts Why its needed: stored energy for the cell to use later, to make cell parts
Nutrient: proteins Source: meat, fish, eggs, nuts and beans. Why its needed: makes up the structure of cells and cell organelles. Also helps perform chemical reactions in cells.
