CELL-A-BRATE LIFE
Problem: What do animal and plant cells look like
INTRODUCTION
We have been studying life and found that a major characteristic of life is that all living things are
composed of cells. Cells are the basic building blocks of all life as we know it. Thanks to the
invention of the microscope, Robert Hooke in the late 1600's was the first to named the tiny
compartments of cork tree, cells.
Just like we have organs that perform certain tasks, cells have tiny organs called organelles (small
organs). These organelles allow the cell to carry out tasks the cells need to survive.
We will be looking at the two basic types of cells in multicellular organisms, plant and animal cells.
Plant cells have several features that animal cells do not have. The plant cells have a rigid cell wall
and have tiny green sacs called chloroplasts.
PROCEDURES:
PART I. ONION SKIN CELLS
A. Draw what you think a plant cell should look like. Label any organelle that you know about.
Q 1.What is a cell?
B. Get a thin sliver of onion skin cells. Remember "TO BEND AND SNAP"
The sliver should be VERY thin.
C. Now take a drop of the ONION STAIN and add it to your onion slide. Carefully lower the cover
slip at a 45 degree angle.
WAIT 2-3 MINUTES TO ALLOW THE STAIN TO BE ABSORBED
MAKE A ACCURATE CAREFUL SKETCH OF ONE ONION CELL UNDER HIGH POWER.
COLOR AND LABEL ALL ORGANELLES YOU CAN RECOGNIZE.
Q2. What are the small rectangular boxes called ?
Q3. The large brown dot inside the cell is what?
Q4 . What is the rigid outer covering of the plant cell called?
PART II. Green Plant Cell
A. Get a SMALL piece of the water plant
B. Make a wet mount slide of the piece of plant NO STAIN NEEDED
Remember to start on low and bring the stage all the way up first using the coarse knob
NEATLY DRAW AND COLOR ONE Cell under Low Med High
Label the Nucleus Cell Wall Chloroplasts (High power only)
You might want to look at page 90/91 in the book for help
Q5. How is this plant cell different than the onion cell?
Q6. What does this cell have in common with the onion cell?
Q7 What general shape are both plant cells?
Q8 What are the little green circles in the water plant called?
PART III. ANIMAL CELL
Draw what you think the animal (cheek) cell should look like. Label any organelle
A. Take a tooth pick and gently scrape the inside of your mouth
B. Rub the tooth pick on the slide and add a drop of stain. Drop the cover slip on top
WAIT 2-3 MINUTES TO ALLOW THE STAIN TO BE ABSORBED
NEATLY DRAW ONE CELL UNDER HIGH POWER Label: Nucleus Cell Membrane Cytoplasm
Give two similarities/differences between your Pre Look Cell and Actual Cell
Q9 What is the shape of these animal cells?
Q10 What is the approximate size of a cell?
Q11 Give a difference between the animal cell and the plant cells
Q12 Give an organelle that both the animal cell and plant cell have in common
