Title: Cell Lab

 Purpose:

 1. To review cell structures and their functions.

 2. To compare eukaryotic & prokaryotic cells.

 3. To observe the specialization of cell structure & function that occurs in multicellular organisms.

 Pre-Lab:

 Drawings

Draw an animal cell and label the following organelles.

Nucleus, Smooth ER, Rough ER, Golgi, Mitocondria, Cell

Membrane, Ribosomes, Vesicle, Cytoskeleton, Lysosome

Draw a plant cell and label the following organelles.

Nucleus, cell wall, cell membrane, central vacuole, chloroplast, golgi, ER, mitochondria

Draw a prokaryotic cell and label the following organelles.

Cilia, flagella, DNA, capsid

 Questions

 1. What is the difference between prokaryotic & eukaryotic cells?

 2. What cellular organelles are only found in plant cells?

 3. Where in the cell is DNA stored in eukaryotic cells?

 4. What organelle provides the cell with energy?

 5. What organelle in plants is responsible for converting solar energy to chemical energy (photosynthesis)?

 Lab

Bacteria

 1. Compare the shape of the cheek cells to the elodea cells.

 2. Describe the movement of the chloroplasts in the

Elodea.

 3. What cell parts are found in the Elodea that are not present in the cheek cells?

 4. Compare the bacteria cells to the cheek and Elodea cells in terms of size and organelles present.

 5. What special job are Elodea cells built for? What organelle is present that undergoes this process?
