Extra Credit Opportunity:
 Choose an organelle from your cell that interests you and find research it
 Write a paragraph summary about the organelle, be sure to answer the following:
o What is the main job of the organelle?
o Who discovered the organelle? Is there any fascinating information about the
organelle?
o Are there any experiments being done to find out more about the organelle?
 What is the experiment about? How did they do it? What did they learn?
 Be sure to include the reference to where the information came from:
o Name of the organization. Date site was visited. <Internet Address>
o Author. Book Title. Page where information was found. Date book was published.
 How many points can I get?
o The extra credit is worth no more than 10 points; however you cannot receive any
more than the maximum points total for this project.

CELL PROJECT PACKET
NAME: ____________________________
o Animal Cells brochures must have at least 7 organelles explained
o Plant Cells brochures must have at least 10 organelles explained
 Wanted Poster for one (1) organelle
o Design and create a “wanted poster” for one cell organelle
o Describe why that organelle is wanted
o Offer a reward for finding or returning the organelle
o Explain if the organelle is found in a plant cell, animal cell, or both
 Classified ad selling an organelle
o Design and create an advertisement for “selling” a cell organelle
o Describe the organelle and its function(s)
o State the cost for buying it
o State how to contact you to buy it (can be made up)
o Explain if the organelle is found in a plant cell, animal cell, or both
All projects should:
1) Be neat
2) Be colored
3) Be the students own work- Plagiarism results in automatic failure
4) Be on time
What organelles should I include on my project?
Chromosomes/DNA
Cell Membrane
Nucleus
Cytoplasm
Vacuoles
Ribosome
Golgi Complex
Lysosome
Mitochondria
Endoplasmic Reticulum
*Cell Wall
*Chloroplast
The grading rubric will be handed out separate.
