1. Viruses Vs. Cells
Comparing the two.

2. Quickwrite! 
Based on what you remember about viruses and cells from IPC:
Differences between the two?
Similarities?
Examples of each?
Be prepared to share.

3. QuickShare!
Discuss what you wrote with your table partner.

4. Set up you notes as cornell notes
Set up you notes as cornell notes. You are expected to write 3 questions that you may still have or need more understanding on in the left margin and provide a summary at the bottom. I will check tomorrow.

5. Create a Venn diagram comparing and contrasting virus/cells

6. Structure: Viruses: Cells:
Central core of DNA or RNA surrounded by a protein coat
Cell Membrane & cytoplasm
Eukaryotes will have a nucleus and organelles

7. Size: Viruses: Cells: TINY! 5 – 300 nanometers
Larger: micrometers
1 meter = 1000 millimeters (mm)
1 millimeter = 1000 micrometers (µm)
1 micrometer = 1000 nanometers (nm)

8. Reproduction: Viruses: Cells: Dependent on host cell
Independent Reproduction
Asexual
Sexual

9. Genetic COde:
Viruses:
Cells:
DNA or RNA
DNA only

10. Viruses continuously reproduce, but NEVER grow.
Growth & development:
Viruses:
Cells: No
Yes
In multicellular organisms, cells increase in number and differentiate
Viruses continuously reproduce, but NEVER grow.

11. Obtain Energy: Viruses: Cells: No Yes
Viruses use their hosts’ energy. Therefore, when the host is too weak to produce energy for the virus, the virus moves on.

12. Respond to the Environment :
Viruses:
Cells: No
Yes

13. Change over time:
Viruses:
Cells:
Yes
Yes

14. Examples:
Viruses:
Cells:

15. How to Stop:
Viruses:
Cells:
Vaccines
Antibiotics

16. QUICKWRITE!  CHOOSE ONE! (or two or three if you have the time)
How has your knowledge of viruses and cells changed?
What was most interesting?
What applies to everyday life?
