Animal, Plant & Soil Science
Lesson B2-1
Cells
Interest Approach
Discuss the materials used to build homes (lumber, brick, nails, etc.). Emphasize that when these items are put together properly, great structures can be built, but that individually they cannot accomplish much. Compare cells with these building materials. Cells are the building blocks of an organism. When cells are linked together to form an organism, they can accomplish much more than individual cells could ever do.
Objectives
Explain a cell’s role and compare and contrast the types of cells (prokaryotic and eukaryotic).
Describe the components of an animal cell and explain their functions.
Describe the components of a plant cell and explain their functions.

What is a cell’s role in an organism?
The cell is the basic unit of life. Cells can be divided into two categories
based on structural components: prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells.
A prokaryotic cell is a cell that lacks a nucleus.
A eukaryotic cell is a cell that contains a distinct nucleus.
What is a cell’s role in an organism?
A. The cell is considered the building block of living organisms.
Organisms are grouped by the number of cells they contain.
1. Unicellular organisms are organisms that have only one cell.
2. Multicellular organisms are organisms composed of many cells.
What is a cell’s role in an organism?
B. Biogenesis is the principle that life comes from life.
Nonliving things cannot produce life. When reproducing, life produces life that
is similar to itself.
What are the parts of an animal cell, and what are the functionsof those parts?
Cells of all organisms have the same basic makeup, or structure.
Differences do occur, however, between the cells of plants and animals.
A. Animal cell components: 1. The cell membrane is the outside
covering of the cell. It is made of a thin layer of lipids (fats). The functions of the cell membrane are:
What are the parts of an animal cell, and what are the functionsof those parts?
a. To separate the cell contents from the external environment. b. To allow raw materials (carbohydrates
and proteins) to enter the cell. c. To allow newly made proteins and waste
to exit the cell.
What are the parts of an animal cell, and what are the functionsof those parts?
2. The nucleus is the “brain” of the cell. The nucleus controls all the cell’s activity. It is surrounded by the nuclear membrane,
which functions similarly to the cell membrane.
The nucleus also contains chromosomes, which are small strands of genetic material.
What are the parts of an animal cell, and what are the functionsof those parts?
3. Cytoplasm is a jellylike substance between the cell membrane and the nuclear membrane.
It contains several specialized structures called organelles.
a. The endoplasmic reticulum is a network of membranes that connects the cell membrane to the nucleus. There are two sections of the endoplasmic
reticulum. Each section has its own function.
What are the parts of an animal cell, and what are the functionsof those parts?
(1) The smooth endoplasmic reticulum is the site for the production of lipids (fats) and hormones.
(2) The rough endoplasmic reticulum is the site for the production of proteins.
What are the parts of an animal cell, and what are the functionsof those parts?
b. Mitochondria are small, egg-shaped organelles that manufacture adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is used as an energy source for the cell. It converts food into energy through cellular
respiration. c. Lysosomes are round organelles that cause
the digestion of proteins through the release of enzymes. These are made by the Golgi apparatus.
What are the parts of an animal cell, and what are the functionsof those parts?
d. The Golgi apparatus consists of flattened membrane sacs that receive substances transported from the endoplasmic reticulum. It also stores the substances and alters their
chemical structure.
What are the parts of a plant cell, and what are the functions ofthose parts?
Cells of all organisms have the same basic makeup, or structure.
Differences do occur, however, between the cells of plants and animals.
A. Plants cell components:
What are the parts of a plant cell, and what are the functions ofthose parts?
1. The cell wall is the outside covering of the cell. It is made of multiple
layers of cellulose. Cellulose is a complex
sugar molecule. The cell wall thickens
and becomes rigid once the cell stops growing.
What are the parts of a plant cell, and what are the functions ofthose parts?
2. The nucleus is the “brain” of the cell. The nucleus controls all of
the cell’s activity. It is surrounded by the
nuclear membrane, which functions similarly as the cell membrane.
The nucleus also contains chromosomes, which are small strands of genetic material.

3. Cytoplasm is a jellylike substance between the cell wall and the nuclear membrane. It contains several specialized structures
called organelles. a. The endoplasmic reticulum is a network
of membranes that connects the cell wall to the nucleus. There are two sections of the endoplasmic
reticulum.
What are the parts of a plant cell, and what are the functions ofthose parts?
Each section has its own function. (1) The smooth endoplasmic reticulum is
the site for the production of lipids (fats) and hormones.
(2) The rough endoplasmic reticulum is the site for the production of proteins.
What are the parts of a plant cell, and what are the functions ofthose parts?
b. The vacuole is a large sac bound by a membrane. It may occupy up to 90 percent of the cell. The vacuole contains water,
stored foods, salts, pigments, and wastes.
What are the parts of a plant cell, and what are the functions ofthose parts?
c. Mitochondria are small, egg-shaped organelles that manufacture adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is used as an energy source for the
cell. It converts food into energy through cellular
respiration.
What are the parts of a plant cell, and what are the functions ofthose parts?
d. Chloroplasts contain green pigments called chlorophyll that trap light energy for photosynthesis. Chlorophyll is
produced in cells exposed to light and is abundant in leaves.

e. The Golgi apparatus consists of flattened membrane sacs that receive substances transported from the endoplasmic reticulum. It also stores the substances and alters their
chemical structure.
