1. Animal Cells: Structure and Function Lesley Koch 3/4/15 Grade 9 Animal Cells Lesson Plan Animal Cells Lesson Plan

2. Cells: Building Blocks of Life All Living Things are Made of Cells!

3. Characteristics of Animal Cells In the last chapter, we discussed how animal cells are different from plant cells. Now, let’s dig deeper and learn about how animal cells function! Animal Cell Overview Animal Cell Overview

4. Important Organelles Nucleus “Brain” of the cell Contains genetic information (DNA) Executive functioning of cell Mitochondria “Powerhouse” of the cell Generate ATP (energy for the cell)

5. Nucleus Video Answer the following questions while watching the video: How does the nuclear membrane differ from the cell membrane? How many pairs of chromosomes does a cell have? What does DNA stand for? Nucleus Video Nucleus Video

6. Important Organelles Ribosomes Site of protein synthesis Made up of TWO subunits (large and small) More about ribosomes will be discussed in the next chapter (Protein Synthesis) Golgi Apparatus “UPS” of the cell Package molecules to go elsewhere in the cell Get them ready for shipment and delivery  

7. Plasma Membrane The plasma membrane provides protection for the cell. It contains two distinct layers (phospholipid bilayer) These two layers can be described as hydrophobic and hydrophilic. Hydrophobic: “Water” (hydro) “fearing” (phobia) Hydrophilic: “Water” (hydro) “loving” (philia)

8. Discussion Cells Alive! Interactive Cell Model Cells Alive! Interactive Cell ModelDirections: Explore interactive cell model (animal cell) with a partner Answer the following questions: 1.Name 3 organelles we did not talk about and give a characteristic of each 2.Which part of the cell is referred to as the “soup” of the cell? 3.If possible, give 3 characteristics of animal cell walls. **Turn in ONE paper with the answers to these questions with BOTH names on it
