Unit 3 Lesson 1 What Are Cells?
All Made of Cells Cells are the basic units of structure and function in a living thing. The bodies of all living things are made up of cells, including nerve and skin cells. Living things are also called organisms and can be made up of one cell or trillions of cells. Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company

Unit 3 Lesson 1 What Are Cells?
All Made of Cells People did not know cells existed because cells were microscopic, or not visible without a microscope. Robert Hooke was the first person to study cells using a microscope. Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company

What Parts Do Cells Have?
Unit 3 Lesson 1 What Are Cells? What Parts Do Cells Have? Plants and animals are made of cells, but they need different cell parts to stay alive. The nucleus Makes more cells. produces energy. Takes in materials. Gets rid of wastes. Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company

Cells Divide and Multiply
Unit 3 Lesson 1 What Are Cells? Cells Divide and Multiply Cell division makes two cells from one. Cells divide for two reasons: to grow As cell division occurs, the organism grows. Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company
21
Cells Divide and Multiply
Unit 3 Lesson 1 What Are Cells? Cells Divide and Multiply to reproduce. When organisms reproduce, they make egg and sperm cells through cell division. Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company

Cells Divide and Multiply
Unit 3 Lesson 1 What Are Cells? Cells Divide and Multiply Chromosomes are structures in the cell’s nucleus made of DNA. DNA is made of sections called genes. Genes control an organism’s characteristics. An organism’s characteristics, such as height or eye color, come from the parent’s cells when they reproduce. Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company
23
Unit 3 Lesson 1 What Are Cells?
How Cells Divide Mitosis is a six-step process that allows the organism to grow. Each chromosome is copied. Chromosome are joined. Chromosomes line up in the middle. Chromosomes separate and move to opposite ends of the cell. A nuclear membrane is formed. Finally, the cytoplasm divides Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company

Unit 3 Lesson 1 What Are Cells?
How Cells Divide Meiosis forms eggs and sperm, or sex cells, which have half as many chromosomes as body cells. Egg and sperm cells join to form a new single cell during sexual reproduction. The single cell divides by mitosis and grows into a new individual. Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company

Where Do Traits Come From?
Unit 3 Lesson 1 What Are Cells? Where Do Traits Come From? Meiosis causes genetic differences since an organism receives only half of its genes from each parent. This results in genetic differences between parents and offspring. Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company
31
Where Do Traits Come From?
Unit 3 Lesson 1 What Are Cells? Where Do Traits Come From? Inherited traits are characteristics passed from parents to their offspring. Examples of these characteristics might include eye color, hair color, freckles, and face shape in humans, and fur color and texture in animals.

Dominant and Recessive Traits
Unit 3 Lesson 1 What Are Cells? Dominant and Recessive Traits In the 1800s, Gregor Mendel observed height differences in pea plants. Mendel investigated how the height trait was passed on from parent plants. Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company

Dominant and Recessive Traits
Unit 3 Lesson 1 What Are Cells? Dominant and Recessive Traits Mendel hypothesized that traits in organisms are controlled by a pair of factors and each parent passes on one factor. In the pea plants, tallness was a strong, or dominant trait. Shortness was a weak, or recessive trait. Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company
