Part 2: Using a Model of the cell. Models are used by scientists to view something
that might be too small to see with the naked eye.
Diagram of the Plant Cell: After examining the plant cell model, label the
diagram:
Word Bank for Cell
Diagrams:
Cell Wall
Cell membrane
Nucleus
Nucleolus
Cytoplasm
Chloroplast
Lysosome
Endoplasmic
reticulum
Ribosomes
Now examine the animal cell model. Use it to label the parts
of the animal cell.
Rough ER / Smooth
ER
Mitochondria
Vacuole
Part 4: Venn diagram: Compare the plant and animal cell in structure and function: Use
the information you have gathered from videos, the cell models and your text book.
PLANTS
ANIMALS
Have more time? Go for the 5! Watch more of the videos or check out your text book and
continue to gather information on CELLS! Create a poster, video, power point, fact-book etc.
on what you have learned!
