Download Introduction to Cell Theory

Monday 3 October
Topic: A day in the life of a cell
DO NOW
 What comes to mind when you hear
the word ‘protein?’ Describe what
functions you think they have in the
body. Why do you think they’re
necessary in a healthy body?
OBJECTIVE
Explain how at least 5 cell
organelles work together to
make and use proteins in your
body
TURN IN:
• 2 sheets – one of labeled cell parts, and one is the table of all the
organelle functions
HW:
Rough draft due Wednesday: Detailed
paragraph (typed or neatly written on
separate paper)
Describe how the organelles in a cell work
together to make and use proteins. Include at
least 5 different organelles in your essay.
AGENDA
• Day in the life of a cell!
• You will get a ‘script’ afterwards
which, combined with your
notes, is all you need for the hw
(Modifies and shapes the protein)
Protein
being formed
at Ribosome
Ribosome
Protein
Protein could go to membrane to be released
into blood stream
DNA
RNA
RNA
ATP
(for the cell to use)
(Holds genetic
information)
(Copies genetic from DNA and carries it to the
Ribosome to make proteins)
Cell Respiration
Glucose +
O2
Tuesday 4 October
Topic: A day in the life of a cell
DO NOW
 Where is DNA located and why?
 How do ribosomes get their building
information?
 What contribution to protein production
does the ER (endoplasmic reticulum) play?
OBJECTIVE
Explain how at least 5 cell
organelles work together to
make and use proteins in your
body (cont)

Cell analogies
 With a partner, you are to come up with analogies for a
minimum of 4 organelles of your choice
 These analogies must compare the function of the organelle
to a part of a city
 E.g. a vesicle is like a mail truck because it picks up materials to
deliver
 You and your partner should write your analogy on the
appropriate poster
 Most creative wins!
OBJECTIVE
Explain how at least 5 cell organelles work together to make and use proteins in your body (cont)
 Nucleus
 Vacuole
 Endoplasmic reticulum
 Lysosome
 Ribosome
 Cell membrane
 Golgi body
 Cytoplasm
 Mitochondrion
 Cell wall
 Vesicle
 Chloroplast
OBJECTIVE
Explain how at least 5 cell organelles work together to make and use proteins in your body (cont)
Friday 7 October
Topic: Cells Under the Microscope
DO NOW
 Complete the pre-lab questions
HW:
• Complete lab analysis questions
• Detailed paragraph (typed or neatly
written on separate paper), describeing
how the organelles in a cell work together to
make and use proteins. Include at least 5
different organelles in your essay.
OBJECTIVE
Identify various cells and cell
components by creating wet
mount slides from different
organisms.
AGENDA
• Review lab protocol
• Cells under the microscope
• TURN IN LAB BEFORE YOU
LEAVE
Lab Protocol
 It is imperative that you stay AT your lab table and RAISE
YOUR HAND for permission to move about the room
 This means roaming around for ANY REASON
 You get one roaming warning then the next offense is a blue slip
 Lab materials are to be used for the purpose written in the
lab report ONLY
 ANY misuse of lab materials is an automatic blue slip, no
questions asked
Lab Protocol
 Today you are observing animals cells (your own cheek cells)
and plant cells (Elodea leaflets)
 The ENTIRE lab is written step by step – do everything in
order so you don’t get lost/confused!
 Your lab is to be completed (with analysis questions) and
turned in TODAY
 If you don’t complete the lab, you must finish afterschool
during office hours
