It is the basic structure for all living things. 2. What is a cell? 3. The main purpose of a cell is to ________________. 4. How does the cell make it easier for an organism to survive, grow, and reproduce? 5. Why aren’t cells large? Directions: Use the following website to answer question 6: https://kidskonnect.com/health/human-body/ 6. The human body is made up of ____________ trillion cells. One _______________ cells must be replaced every __________________. Part 2: Types of Cells Directions: Use the following website to answer questions 7-12: http://www.ehow.com/list_7388164_different-cells-human-body.html http://science.jrank.org/kids/pages/30/Cells-At-Work.html (for number 10 only) 7. ______________________ cells protect the body. These cells cover the ____________________ and ______________________ of our body’s organs. 8. Why are nerve cells important to the human body? 9. _______________________ cells help maintain a bone’s structure and regulates the release of ______________ into the bloodstream. 10. Which type of cell works in bundles to flex or contract? 11. Fat cells are also known as ______________________ cells and store fat that the body may use as energy if necessary. 12. What is the function of red blood cells in the human body? 13. What is the difference between red blood cells and white blood cells? Part 3: Socrative Quiz Directions: Visit the following website: www.socrative.com and click on the “student login” button in the top right hand corner. Our class code is Silverscience. When the website prompts you for your name, please write your first and last name. The name of this quiz is: Introduction to Cells. If your quiz does not work, please see me for a paper copy; you must complete this quiz at this point in the webquest. Part 4: “How Big is a...” Directions: Go to this website: www.cellsalive.com. Click on the “How Big” link on the left side of the webpage. Look at the objects that can be found on the head of a pin. Zoom in and out to determine which object is the smallest, then slowly zoom out so you can see how other objects compare. 14. If you zoom all the way in, what is the smallest object on the head of the pin? _______________________________ 15. Zoom out a litter farther. What is the hooked shaped object you see? ________________________________ 16. Compare each of the following objects on the pin. Circle the one that is larger for each pair. a. Baker’s yeast or E. coli b. Lymphocyte or ragweed c. Red blood cell or staphylococcus d. Ragweed or dust mite Part 5: Cell Organelles Directions: Use the following website to answer questions 17-31: http://www.cellsalive.com/cells/cell_model.htm CLICK ON THE ANIMAL CELL 17. ________________________ membrane (plasma membrane) is a protective barrier for the cell. It is made up of a double layer of ____________________. The cell membrane is made more complex by the presence of numerous __________________ that are important to cell activity; they specifically control what enters and leaves the cell. 18. What is the difference between the cytosol and cytoplasm in a cell? 19. What is inside the nucleus that is responsible for providing the cell with unique characteristics? __________ The nucleus is also considered to be the control center of the cell. 20. The prominent structure inside of the nucleus is the _________________. This produces ribosomes, which move out of the nucleus and take positions on the _____________________________ where they are critical in protein synthesis. 21. ____________________ are packets of RNA and protein that play a critical role in cells; they are the site of protein synthesis. 22. What is the organelle that is the site where proteins made by ribosomes collect and prepare to be transported throughout the cell? ________________________ 23. This organelle, _____________________________________, is a continuation of the rough endoplasmic reticulum and appears to have a smooth texture. It may have a different function depending on the cell type. 24. What is the role of the mitochondria in the cell? 25. The mitochondrion has a double ______________________. The outer membrane is ___________________, but the inner membrane has a lot of folds called _______________________ that increases the surface area inside the cell. On the cristae, food (sugar) combines with oxygen to produce ATP, which is a primary ____________________ source for the cell. 26. What organelle is responsible for packaging macromolecules that will be transported to other parts of the cell? 27. _______________________ contain enzymes. This organelle is responsible for digesting nutrients by the cell. 28. What is the purpose of a vacuole in a cell? 29. Compare and contrast a vacuole found in plant and animal cells. CLICK ON THE PLANT CELL 30. Plant cells have a rigid, protective cell _______________, which provides and maintains the rectangular shape of the cells. 31. These organelles contain chlorophyll, which gives plants their green color and allows them to absorb energy from sunlight. _______________________ are the site of photosynthesis for plants, where they make their own food.
