Plant and Animal Cells
GLE SC2.1 Diversity of Life
The student demonstrates an understanding of the structure, function, behavior, development, life cycles
and diversity of living organisms by describing the basic structure and function of plant and animal cells.
Goal: You will be describing the basic structure and function of plant and animal cells.
This project will consist of 3 parts:
1. A colored, drawing of an animal cell with labeled organelles.
2. 3-D model of a plant cell with labeled organelles.
3. Completed worksheet on pages 3 & 4 of this packet

Requirements
Plant Cell Model
1. You must label these organelles within your plant cell:
 Cell Wall

 Cell Membrane

 Nucleus

 Cytoskeleton

 Endoplasmic Reticulum

Ribosome
Mitochondria
Chloroplast
Vacuole
Golgi Complex
Draw an Animal Cell
Directions: In the space provided below, draw an animal cell. Make sure to draw all of the
organelles listed below. Identify each organelle by coloring it the color indicated in the word
box. Use pg. 69 of the Life Science textbook

cell membrane (yellow)
lysosome (green)
cytoskeleton (pink)
mitochondria (orange)
ribosome (black)
Golgi Complex (blue)
nucleus (red)
Endoplasmic Reticulum (purple)
Cell Worksheet
1. Complete the Venn Diagram using the words below:

2. How would you know the difference between an animal cell and plant cell?
3. Why doesn’t an animal cell need a cell wall?
4. How are plant and animal cells similar in structure to our bodies?
