Learning Target 1 Quiz: Cells and Cell Parts
Its time to test your knowledge!
Get a copy of the quiz and a GradeCam form.
Go to your desk and silently complete the quiz.
I'm Finished, now what?
When finished turn in your quiz to the teacher. Your next task will be to complete the handout containing a crossword and label the image of a microscope. Turn this in at the end of the period.

Still need help clarifying what the organelles in a plant and animal cell are as well as determining their functions? Lets Review! Using the provided handout and the online cell explorer.
Cell Types and Functions
Lets take a look at several specialized cells and their functions (jobs). Using the powerpoint below complete the How Does a Cell Structure Determine Function document.

How do we know what cells look like?
|
Eukaryotic Cell Project
The pictures in most textbooks teach what the “average” or “typical” animal or plant cell looks like, but in reality there are many variations in shape and structure within cells to help them accomplish a specific function.

Resources:
|
Part I:
Research one of the following cell types and compare its specific cell structure (morphology) to that of the “typical” animal or plant cell that we have been learning about in class. Complete the included chart of comparisons between the average cell and the cell type you picked. On the list, be sure to mention HOW your specific cell’s shape (STRUCTURE) and organelles contribute to its actual job (FUNCTION) in a living thing.

Specific Cell Types to Research:
A. Erythrocyte B. Neutrophil C. Neuron D. Goblet cell E. Osteoclast F. Osteocyte G. Adipocyte H. Ciliated Columnar Epithelial I. Cardiomyocyte J. Cnidocyte K. Macrophage L. Stoma Guard Cells M. Schlerenchyma N. Collenchyma |
Part II:
Include two hand-drawn and colored pictures: 1) A labelled picture of the “typical” animal OR plant cell we learned about in class (whichever is more relevant to your assigned cell in part I). 2) A labelled picture of your specific cell type (from part I) Scoring Guide: 60 pts. possible 15 Points for Comparison Chart 15 Points for Accurate Colored Drawings of Both Cells 15 Points for Neatness and Overall Effort 15 Points for Presentation Skills (know your information, make eye contact, don’t read to us, etc) |
Eukaryotic Cell Project Gallery Walk
Circulate the room and analyze each Eukaryotic cell type. Using the Eukaryotic Cell Project Gallery Walk Handout, look at each poster and list the cell type, structure, organ tissue system, and how the structure affects the function of the cell.
