From watching movie
1. There are two basic types of cells —prokaryotic and ___________________________.
2. Prokaryotic cells don’t have any membrane around their _______________________.
They are single-celled organisms that can live on their own.
3. Eukaryotic cells are what we’re made of. They have a __________________________
and hereditary material that’s surrounded by a membrane and control the life of a cell.
4. _____________________________________ and animal cells are both eukaryotic.
5. Cells come in all different shapes and sizes. The shape and size of a cell can
sometimes tell you something about its ________________________________.
6. Name two cells from your body: _____________________________________ and
_____________________________________________.
7. Plant and animal cells are pretty similar inside, but there are two major differences:

Plant cells can make their own _________________________ and animal cells
can’t.

Plant cells’ ____________________________ color comes from the organelles call
chloroplasts. Chloroplasts trap light energy and enable plants to conduct
photosynthesis.
