Science 8 e-Workshop Assignment: The Cell
For this assignment, you and a partner will be using iPad applications “apps” and online sources
to learn about the cell. You will see 3-D representations and visual depictions of both the
animal and plant cell, as well as a wide range of information regarding the functions of each of
their organelles; the structures that make up cells.
Section A: Looking at the Cells (24 Marks)
The Animal Cell
Part 1 – Correctly and clearly label the organelles of the animal cell. (4 marks)
Label all of the following organelles:
Nucleus, Mitochondrion, Lysosomes, Endoplasmic Reticulum, Golgi Body (Golgi Apparatus),
Cell Membrane, Cytoplasm, Vacuoles
Part 2 – Using the organelles from the previous section, complete the chart of organelles and
their respective functions. You will also need to add in a descriptor of your own ie. “This
organelle acts like a …”
Important Notice* Use your own words to describe the organelle functions, don’t just copy
down what the apps say!! (8 marks)
Name of Organelle
Function

The Plant Cell
Part 1 – Correctly and clearly label the organelles of the plant cell. (4 marks)
Label all of the following organelles:
Nucleus, Mitochondrion, Endoplasmic Reticulum, Golgi Body (Golgi Apparatus), Cell
Membrane, Cytoplasm, Vacuole, Chloroplasts, Cell Wall
Part 2 – Using the organelles from the previous section, complete the chart of organelles and
their respective functions. You will also need to add in a descriptor of your own ie. “This
organelle acts like a …”
Important Notice* Use your own words to describe the organelle functions, don’t just copy
down what the apps say!! (8 marks)

Section B: Analyzing the Information (6 Marks)
1. Compare and contrast the plant and animal cells.
– What makes a plant cell different from an animal cell? What organelles does one have,
that the other does not? What makes a plant cell similar to an animal cell? (2 marks)
2. List two online sites you and your partner used during this e-Workshop to gather
information on the cells and why you felt they were useful. (2 marks)
