Hi Guys,I’m Celli the Caterpillar and I am going to teach you about these tiny organisms that are found in

our bodies as well as in plants. Do you know what they are called?

If you said CELLS then you are one smart

cookie! There are two kinds of cells that we are

going to learn about.

Cells Alive

Let’s play with the cells to see

what all the parts do.

Interactive CellsThere are two types of cells: prokaryotic

cells and eukaryotic cells.The simplest cells are prokaryotic cells like bacteria. Eukaryotic cells are more complex and are found in plants, animals and fungi.

ANIMAL CELLSWatch Tim and Moby as they go over the different

parts of an animal cell and what special jobs

they hold.

1. Cell Membrane

2. Nucleus

3. DNA- Chromosomes

4. Cytoplasm

5. Organelles

6. Mitochonria

7. Lysosomes

8. Endoplasmic Reticulum

9. Vacuole

10. Ribosomes

11. Golgi Bodies

Can you label all the parts of an ANIMAL CELL? HELP! I can only get

out of here if you can name all the parts of this cell. HURRY!

Vacuole

THANK YOU!!!

WHOOSH you guys are really

smart.

These dawg on animals, love to chew on me! It is a good thing that our

cells are not exactly the same. Can you figure out what are two

differences in our cells?

Here is a Plant Cell, do you think that you can

identify all of it’s parts? Hmmmm, let’s

see….

Fill in the Venn Diagram below with the components of each cell. Remember, if they share the same parts, then you need to write them in the overlapping area. If they have parts that are unique to each individual cell, then you need to write them in the area that is only for that cell.

Plant and animal cellsAll cells have these features in common:a cell membrane which controls what passes into and out of the

cell cytoplasm where chemical processes (controlled by enzymes) take

place, and a nucleus containing genetic material which controls the cell's

behaviour. In addition, plant cells have the following unique features:a rigid cell wall made of cellulose vacuoles containing cell sap, and chloroplasts, containing chlorophyl which enables photosynthesis

to take place. Make sure you can draw and label a generalised animal and a

generalised plant cell, like this:

Although it is useful to think about the general features of plant and animal cells,

all cells in living organisms display specialised features that make them suited to

carrying out their very specific jobs - for example, root cells, stem cells and leaf

cells within a plant. A complex organism can be compared to a factory production

line with different people performing different tasks. Cells within an organism

display a similar division of labour to make the whole organism work properly and

at a high level of efficiency.
