Lesson 3: Comparing plant and animal cells
Understand the differences between plant and animal cells
Record evidence using a microscopeCommunicate about cells using scientific
terminology

Lesson 3: Cells as Building Blocks
All living organisms are made of cells – they are the building blocks of life. Cells cannot be seen except under a microscope. This is why it took so long to discover them. Some organisms are made of only one cell; most are made of millions of cells working together.
Amoeba is a single-celled organism

Lesson 3: Common Structures in Animal and Plant Cells
All plant cells and animal cells have three main structures – the nucleus, the cytoplasm and the cell membrane.
DNA is inside the nucleus controls reactions and is responsible for cell reproduction
Cytoplasm makes up most of the cell and is where chemical reactions happen
Small structures inside the cytoplasm called organelles help keep the organism alive
Cell membrane surrounds the cell and controls what can get inside (water, oxygen, glucose) and outside the cell (carbon dioxide)
Special organelles called mitochondria convert glucose and oxygen into a form of energy that the cell can use.

Lesson 3: Differences between Animal and Plant Cells
Plant cells also contain: cell wall, vacuole, chloroplasts
The cell wall is an extra protective layer outside the cell membrane. It gives the cell shape and strength.
The vacuole is a large bubble full of liquid. It provides internal pressure for the cell, keeping it firm and in shape.
Leaf cells also contain small, round, green organelles called chloroplasts. These contain a green pigment called chlorophyll, which absorbs energy from the Sun and helps the plant make glucose.

Lesson 3: Key Vocabulary and Notes
Key Vocabulary: nucleus, cytoplasm, cell membrane, mitochondria, cell wall, vacuole, chloroplast
Key Notes: Animal cells and plant cells contain : nucleus,
cytoplasm, cell membrane, mitochondrion, vacuole
Plant cells: also contain, cell wall, chloroplastChlorophyll allow for plants to make glucose,
using energy from sunlight
