Science 8 Cells and Systems Unit Name: ___________________ Section: _________ Chapter 1 – Cells Section 1.1 – The Characteristics of Living Things (page 5-6) 1. List the 6 characteristics of living things. Refer to Table 1 on page 5. a) b) c) d) e) f) 2. Define organism: 3. What are the two main ideas of the cell theory? (a) (b) page 1 of 3 Section 1.3 – Plant and Animal Cells (page 10-13) 1. State the difference between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. 2. Animal Cell Structures – give the description and function for the following cell structures as seen through a compound light microscope: Cell Structure Nucleus Description Chromosomes Cell Membrane Cytoplasm Vacuole Flagellum Cilia 3. Draw Figure 2, page 11 in the space below. page 2 of 3 Function 4. Plant Cell Structures - give the description and function for the following cell structures as seen through a compound light microscope: Cell Structure Vacuole Description Function Cell Wall Chloroplasts 5. List the similarities and differences between plant and animal cell structures. 6. Where in the cell do you find genetic information? 7. Predict what might happen to a cell if the cell membrane was replaced by a plastic covering that prevented molecules from entering or leaving the cell. Why? 8. Cilia also function to remove dirt and debris. Where in the human body might you find cells with cilia? Explain your answer. page 3 of 3
