Starter Activity
• Name 4 differences between plant and animal cells.
ANSWERS
1. Shape (plant cells are
rectangular and animal cells
are generally round)
2. Plant cells have a large
vacuole
3. Plant cells have a cell wall (to
provide extra structure)
4. Plant cells have chroloplasts
(where photosynthesis takes
place)
Learning Intentions
• To explore the basic unit of life (cells) and the organelles that help
them complete their functions
Success Criteria
• I can name the organelles visible under a microscope and describe
their functions in both animal and plant cells.
Schedule
#1) Presentations (all that have not presented)
#2) Correction of worksheets (cells) from last Friday
NUCLEUS
CELL MEMBRANE
CYTOPLASM
MITOCHONDRIA
CELL WALL
CELL MEMBRANE
CYTOPLASM
VACUOLE
The jelly-like substance that
transports substances throughout
the cell.
Controls what enters and
exits the cell.
NUCLEUS
MITOCHONDRIA
The control centre for the
cell. Where DNA is stored.
CHLOROPLAST
Provides the energy for cell
functions
Provides extra rigidity to
plant cells (plant only)
The location of
photosynthesis (plant only)
Stores waste and nutrients
for the cell
