9. Research
Get a copy of the Biology STEMscopedia and turn to the chapter on cells.
Prokaryotic
Eukaryotic
In your notebook create two circle maps:
label one
the other

10. Research Research the characteristics of each
type of cell and use the information to complete your circle maps
(15 minutes
solo time by
yourself then
5 minutes with
with a partner.)
Prokaryotic
Eukaryotic

11. Share your findings with at least 3 other people who were not a part of your research group.

12. What are they and why do we need them?
Cell Organelles
What are they and why do we need them?

13. Now lets research the following cellular organelles
Now lets research the following cellular organelles. You may use any appropriate tool (textbooks, computers, tablets, etc.) to complete your research
Cell Wall, Cytoplasm, Nucleus, Ribosomes, Flagella, Mitochondria, Chloroplast, Endoplasmic Reticulum, Central Vacuole, Golgi Bodies, Plasma Membrane, Lysosomes

14. Draw a picture of the organelle.
Name of the organelle
Function (what does the organelle do.)
In what type of cell would you find the organelle?
(prokaryotes, eukaryotic plants, or eukaryotic animals)
Does your animals cells contain this organelle? If so, why is it important to them?
Record your findings in your notebook as shown in the diagram on the left.
You can use both the right and left sides of your journal to record your information.
Draw a picture of the organelle.
Name of the organelle
Function (what does the organelle do.)
In what type of cell would you find the organelle?
(prokaryotes, eukaryotic plants, or eukaryotic animals)
Does your animals cells contain this organelle? If so, why is it important to them?

15. Locate the Characteristics of Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cells cards and accompanying graphic organizer. Make a comparison between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells by placing each card in the appropriate place on the organizer.

17. Locate the Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cell Comparison Table and the envelope containing the Cell Structure and Function cards. Remove the cards from the envelope and place them in the correct column on the table. Note that there are three copies of each card; this is because some cards may belong with more than one cell type.

19. When you have finished
placing the cards in your
organizer. Check with
the other groups and
compare your answers. Then create a chart like the one below in your notebook and record your answers.
