Download Stores water, nutrients, waste, etc. “Storage Sack” within the cell

5-2.1 Cells
1 and 2 – See Cell Notes for Drawings
3. Compare and Contrast Plant and Animal Cells
Plant Cell
Have larger vacuoles
Have a cell wall and
chloroplasts
Alike
Both have cytoplasm,
cell membrane,
nucleus,
mitochondria,
vacuoles
Animal Cell
Have small vacuoles
4. Cell Organelles and Their Functions




Cell Membrane: Controls what goes in and out of the cell.
Cytoplasm: gel-like fluid that the other organelles float around in
Nucleus: “brain” of the cell. Controls the rest of cell
Vacuole: Stores water, nutrients, waste, etc. “Storage Sack”
within the cell
 Mitochondria: Makes energy for the cell
 Cell Wall: Stiff structure outside of the cell membrane. Give
structure to the plant cell.
 Chloroplast: in charge of photosynthesis for the plant cell
5. See cell notes for drawings.
6. Euglenas and plants both have chloroplasts. This means both
euglenas and plants can make their own food through photosynthesis.
7. Definitions:
 Unicellular: made of one cell
 Cell: smallest unit of living matter that has major structures with
in it.
 Multicellular: made of more than one cell
 Bacteria: unicellular organism without a nucleus
 Protist: unicellular organism with a nucleus.

1. Definitions
 Ecosystem: contains all of the living organisms and their nonliving surrounding
environment that contributes to the functioning of the ecosystem.
 Populatoin: all the members of one kind of organism that live in a particular
area
 Community: group of different populations of organisms
 Abiotic Factor: all the nonliving parts of an ecosystem
 Biotic Factor: all the living, once living, or once “part of a
living thing” parts of a an ecosystem
 Microorganism: living thing too small to be seen without at least a 10x
magnifier
2. Saltmarsh – All of the blue crabs. All of the herons. All of the
flounder.
Grassland – All of the bison. All of the grasshoppers. All of the prairie
dogs.
3. Forest – Deer, cardinals, bobcats, raccoons, pine trees.
Pond/Lake – All of the fish, algae, frogs, and copperheads.
4. Abiotic Factors- Sunlight, temperature, water, weather, amount of
oxygen
5. Biotic Factors – Animals, Plants, Microorganisms, Fungi
