1. Eukaryotic Cell Structure and Function Animal and Plant Cells

2. Essential Questions
How does a cell function?
How do materials the cell needs get into the cell?
What are the 3 most important organelles and what do they do?

3. Eukaryotic Cell Structure
Cell membrane – membrane that surrounds cell and separates outer from inner.
Nucleus – internal compartment of cell that houses cell’s DNA
Organelles – structures in a cell that carry out specific jobs for cell.
Cytoplasm – the jelly-like fluid where the organelles “float.”

4. Cytoskeleton
Cytoskeleton – network of protein filaments( microtubules) in cytoplasm.
help cell maintain shape, move, and move organelles.
help with cell division

5. Cytoskeleton

6. Inside the Nucleus
Nuclear Envelope – membrane that surrounds the nucleus.
Chromatin – consists of DNA wrapped around proteins.
Chromosomes – condensed string-like structure that forms from DNA just before the cell divides.
Nucleolus – structure within the nucleus that makes ribosomes.

7. Inside the Nucleus Nucleolus Chromatin Nuclear Envelope

8. Ribosomes – made of RNA and protein. Make Proteins!

10. Small, membrane-bound sac that transports substances in cells
Vesicle
Small, membrane-bound sac that transports substances in cells
Some become lysosomes

11. Vesicle
vesicle

12. Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)
Endoplasmic reticulum – internal membrane system of the cell that moves proteins and other substances.
Rough ER – has ribosomes, makes proteins
Smooth ER – no ribosomes, makes lipids, and breaks down toxins

13. Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)
Rough ER
Smooth ER

14. Golgi Apparatus – modifies, sorts, and packages proteins.
like UPS

15. Golgi Apparatus
Golgi Apparatus

16. Lysosomes – small organelles filled with enzymes.
Digest molecules and old cell parts to be used by the cell

17. Mitochondria
Mitochondria – converts chemical energy stored in food into compounds that are more convenient for the cell to use.
“Powerhouse of the Cell!”
Makes energy (ATP).
Has own DNA

18. Mitochondria
Mitochondria

19. Plant Cells – 3 features Animal cells don’t have.

20. Central Vacuole
Central Vacuole – large, space; stores water and other substances such as ions, nutrients, and wastes.

21. Central Vacuole
Vacuoles

22. Chloroplasts
Chloroplasts – organelles that capture light energy from sunand convert it into chemical energy. (Photosynthesis)
Found only in plants, algae, and some bacteria.
Has own DNA.

23. Chloroplasts
Chloroplast

24. Cell wall
Cell Wall - structure surrounding cell membrane that provides structure and shape.
composed of proteins, carbs, and cellulose
protects from damage and connects it to next cell

25. Cell Wall
Cell wall

26. Animal Cell vs. Plant Cell

27. Make foldable of plant and animal cell.
Activities
Make foldable of plant and animal cell.
Must have drawing of both animal and plant cells.
Must be colored and labeled.
Must have venn diagram comparing cells.
Will be graded with rubric
Homework – Cell City Analogy
