The cell is the smallest unit of life
- Cells form tissues, tissues form organ and organs form organs organs work together to form organ system and organs system form an organism

   SC.6.L.14.4
Compare and contrast the structure and function of major organelles of plant and animal cells, including cell wall, cell membrane, nucleus, cytoplasm, chloroplasts, mitochondria, and vacuoles.

11

Organelles

Tiny cell structures that carry out specific functions within the cell.
Just like all the organs in the body help the body function.

media

12

Cell Membrane ( Fence)

All cells have it. It is the outside boundary that separates the cell from the environment.

"Hey border patrol let the water and food inside we need need them, but don't let the Corona Virus in we don't need that."

media

13

Multiple Choice

Which statement(s) best describes the function of the cell membrane.

1

The cell membrane helps to protect only plant cells from larger molecules.

2

The selective barrier allow small molecules to enter and exit in animal and plant cells.

3

Animal cells have a thick cell membrane to keep cells rigid.

4

The cell membrane keeps material from entering and exiting the cell.

14

Nucleus

'Brain' of the cell. Control all cell activities.

The nucleus contains the DNA of the cell.

media

15

Cytoplasm

Jelly-like structure. Keeps all the organelles together in the cell.

media

16

Mitochondria

"Powerhouses" of the cell because they produce most of the energy the cell needs to carry out its functions.

  Both plant and animal cells have mitochondria.

media

17

Match

Match the statements with the correct options.

D.    The structure within the cell that provides energy to keep the cell running.

An organelle that carries out photosynthesis.

A.      sample viewed under a microscope has mitochondria only.

A sample viewed under a microscope contains mitochondria and chloroplasts.

A structure in the cell that contains the genetic material.

The mitochondria

The chloroplast

The mitochondria

The vacuole

The nucleus

18

media

What are some organelles that are unique to plant cells and how do they function?

19

Cell Wall

Layer of non living material that surrounds the cells of plants.

Only in plant cells.

Gives plants it's shape. It helps protect and support the cell.

media

20

Vacuole

Storage of the cells. Plants cells have one large vacuole. Animal cells have many large vacuole.

media

21

Chloroplast

Only found in plant cells. Allows the cell to make its own food.

Stores water for photosynthesis

Provides rigid support for some cells

Forms from endocytosis

Mitochondria

Chloroplast

Large Central Vacuole

Cell Wall

Vesicle
