Cells Alive - Internet Lesson
Name: _____________________________________
URL: www.cellsalive.com
Objective: You will look at computer models of cells, learn the functions and the descriptions of the cells and their
components.
Part A. "HOW BIG IS A...."
http://www.cellsalive.com/howbig.htm
From here, you will access the links: "How Big is a..", the animal cell model, the plant cell model, and the bacterial
cell model.
Here you will look at objects found on the head of a pin. Your job is to rank them in order of size on the chart below
and estimate the length of each (in nanometers, micrometers, or millimeters). The line in the bottom right corner of
the screen is used to help you estimate. Sketch each of the objects.
Object

E. coli
Staphylococcus
Ebola virus
Rhinovirus
Part B. Bacterial Cell Model

Part C. Animal Cell Model
http://www.cellsalive.com/cells/cell_model.htm
For this model, you will need to click on the various parts of the cell to go to a screen that tells you about the parts.
Click on Animal Cell at the bottom of the picture. Answers to the following questions are found there.
1. What do mitochondria do?
Sketch each of the following.
Mitochondria
2. How big are mitochondria?
3. What does the Golgi Apparatus do?
4. What is the difference between smooth and rough ER?
Lysosome
5. Where is the nucleolus found?
6. What does the nucleolus do?
Golgi Apparatus
7. What does the cytoskeleton do?
8. Cytosol goes by what other name?
Rough ER
9. What is the function of the cytosol?
10. What is the function of the lysosome?
Turn the page….
Part D. Plant Cell Model
Now click on Plant Cell at the bottom of the picture…
1. What other type of cell has a cell wall?
Sketch the following
Chloroplast
2. What makes the plant cells green?
3. In plant cells, what does the vacuole do?
Vacuole
Part E. Overview
For the chart below, place a check in the box if the cell has that component.
Plant
Animal
Bacteria
Chloroplast
Vacuole
Ribosome
Mitochondria
DNA
Endoplasmic Reticulum
Cell Wall
Golgi Apparatus
