Title Box 1: What do all cells have in common? Cell membrane:

regulates what enters and leaves

Genetic material: DNA Ribosomes: makes proteins

Cytoplasm: liquid part of the cell

Title Box 2: What are eukaryotic cells? Complex, highly

organized cellsHave a nucleus Have membrane

bound organelles = tiny cell organs with jobs

Examples: plants and animal cells

Title Box 3: How are animal cells unique?

Have the following organelles:

Lysosomes: filled with enzymes that clean up the cell

Vesicles: sacs that transport

Title Box 4: How are plant cells unique?

Have the following organelles:

Cell Wall: rigid structure that surrounds cell membrane and provides addition support and protection

Chloroplast: uses sunlight to make sugar

Large Central Vacuole: stores water, materials and wastes

Title Box 5: What happens during cell differentiation?

Cells specialize to perform different tasks

Have all the same DNA

Express different DNA

Title Box 6: Summary

Instructions: - Write a 3-4 sentence summarize what you new things you learned today

- Number and highlight each period - Be specific!!! (Example: “I learned about cells” is not specific, what did you learn about cells?)
