Name ______________________________________ Period ___________ Pre-AP Biology Cell Specialization Lab Background: A multi-cellular organism is composed of many cells that work together. Multi-cellularity enables cells to develop a specialized form and function. For example, flat, stacked cells like the cells of your epidermis, are good for protection. Procedure: In this lab, you will rotate lab stations. Each station will have a numbered microscope containing a different cell. Each cell you observe has a specialized shape to perform a specific function. View each slide carefully and make detailed notes. Data: For each cell: Include a drawing of each cell. Describe the structures and characteristics of the cell. Using the cell description for each cell, predict the possible function of the cell. Using the following possible cell types given by your teacher. Predict the cell at each station. For Cell #1 you are to make a wet mount slide of your cheek cell and complete the chart. Questions: What is meant by “cell specialization”? What is the function of ciliated cells in the lungs? How is a nerve cell adapted to perform signaling functions? Describe the levels of organization of multi-cellular organisms? After you have completed your lab, show your work to your teacher.
