Cells are the building blocks

of all living things

That’s you!

The sperm cell fertilized the egg cell and formed a

zygote. . .

What just happened here?

The zygote divided into two, then four cells.

What had to happen in order to change the four cells you saw on the last slide to the small fetus you viewed on this slide?

Page 22: Cells.carmenriv

What had to happen in order to change the four cells you saw on the last slide to the small fetus you viewed on this slide?

The cells had to differentiate from stem cells, and they had to divide so the animal could grow

Based on their structure, what is the function of these nerve cells?

Page 37: Cells.carmenriv

Based on their structure, what is the function of these nerve cells?

Nerve cells have long projections that send and receive signals.

Page 38: Cells.carmenriv

Just like different cells have different functions based on their structure,

different parts of the cell (organelles) have specificfunctions as well

Page 39: Cells.carmenriv

The cell membrane

Page 40: Cells.carmenriv

The cell membrane

Based on the video, what functions does the cell membrane accomplish for the

cell?

Page 41: Cells.carmenriv

The cell membrane

Based on the video, what functions does the cell membrane accomplish for the

cell?It provides structure, and it helps transport

molecules

Page 42: Cells.carmenriv

The cytoplasm

*The cytoplasm is the liquid and organelles inside the cell.

*Nutrients are dissolved in it.

*Materials the cells needs are also dissolved in the liquid.

Page 43: Cells.carmenriv

The nucleus

Function: It stores DNA (genetic information) in the form of chromosomes

Page 44: Cells.carmenriv

Mitochondria

Page 45: Cells.carmenriv

Mitochondria

How does the structure of this organellerelate to its function?

Page 46: Cells.carmenriv

Mitochondria

How does the structure of this organellerelate to its function?

It converts sugar into ATP through cellular respiration - the folds of the inner membrane increase surface area.

Page 47: Cells.carmenriv

The ribosome

Page 48: Cells.carmenriv

The ribosome

Page 49: Cells.carmenriv

The ribosome

Function:Along with the nucleus and the

endoplasmic reticulum, the

ribosome helps create new

molecules for the cell

(proteins)

Page 50: Cells.carmenriv

Lysosomes

Lysosomes are organelles that containenzymes that help the cell break down waste,

food, and dead cell parts

Page 51: Cells.carmenriv

How is a plant cell different from an animal cell?

Page 52: Cells.carmenriv

Plant cells contain cell walls for structure

They have a cell wall in addition to a cell membrane. It is much more rigid, and it provides a framework for the

cell.

Plant cells contain chloroplasts

Page 55: Cells.carmenriv

Plant cells contain chloroplasts

Chloroplasts add in photosynthesis by absorbing sunlight

Plant cells contain chloroplasts

Chloroplasts add in photosynthesis by absorbing sunlight

The large central vacuole

has several functions.

It can hold waste, and it helps

maintains a cell’s turgidity.
