Directions: Use the Venn Diagram above to answer the following questions:
1. A student is examining a cell under the microscope. The cell is small, has a region of loose DNA, and no membrane-bound organelles. What type of cell is it? A. It must be a prokaryote B. It must be a eukaryote C. It could be either a prokaryote or eukaryote 2. A student is examining a cell under the microscope. The cell has a cell membrane, ribosomes, and DNA that is tightly packed inside of a nucleus. What type of cell is it? A. It must be a prokaryote B. It must be a eukaryote C. It could be either a prokaryote or eukaryote

3. A student is examining a cell under the microscope. The cell has DNA, uses energy, maintains homeostasis, and reproduces. What type of cell is it? A. It must be a prokaryote B. It must be a eukaryote C. It could be either a prokaryote or eukaryote

Determine if the following images are prokaryotes or eukaryotes. If it is a prokaryote place a P next to the image. If it is a eukaryote place an E next to the image.

Activity 3: The Cell Organelles Reading and Graphic Organizer Purpose: To find out about the function of each of the cell organelles Task: As you read, complete the graphic organizer on the opposite. Outcome: Identify the cell organelles and their functions The Cell Organelles Cells are the basic unit of life. We rely on our cells to metabolize food, reproduce, pass on genes, and maintain homeostasis. All cells have organelles (smaller parts) inside that help them carry out these complex tasks. All Cells Share a Basic Structure There are two main types of cells: prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells. All cells share a basic structure: they are all surrounded by a plasma membrane. The plasma membrane controls what enters and exits the cell. Inside the membrane is the cytoplasm the fluid filling of the cell. All cells have ribosomes tiny, circular structures that synthesize (make) proteins. Lastly, all cells have DNA. The Nucleus In prokaryotes (bacteria), the DNA is loose in the middle of the cell. But all eukaryotic cells (plants, animals, protists, and fungi) have a nucleus in the middle of the cell. The nucleus is an organelle that contains the organisms DNA. Because the DNA has the genetic instructions that control all the cells activities, the nucleus is often called the brain of the cell. Chloroplasts and Mitochondria The chloroplast and mitochondria are organelles that help the cell get energy. Chloroplasts are only found in plant cells. Chloroplasts have a special chemical inside them chloroplyll that makes them green and allows them to make food using energy from sunlight. Mitochondria are found in all eukaryotic cells. Mitochondria convert food into energy for the cell. The Endoplasmic Reticulum, Golgi Body, Vacuoles, and Lysosomes In order for molecules to move around the eukaryotic cell, they travel through the endoplasmic reticulum(ER). The rough endoplasmic reticulum has lots of ribosomes attached to it, so a lot of proteins are made in and travel through the rough ER. The smooth ER is not covered with ribosomes. This is where a lot of lipids are made. The Golgi Body packages molecules for transport (movement) outside the eukaryotic cell. Once it has been packaged at the Golgi Body, a molecule can leave the cell through the cell membrane. When the eukaryotic cell needs to store stuff, like water or food, it uses vacuoles. In plant cells, there is usually one big vacuole. In animal cells, there are usually lots of smaller vacuoles. Sometimes these storage organelles also help move stuff around the cell and are called vesicles. The lysosomes help the cell breakdown waste, like old molecules and cell parts. Only animal cells have lysosomes. The Cell Wall Both prokaryotes and plant cells have a cell wall outside of their plasma membrane. The cell wall gives the cell extra support and protection, and helps the cell maintain its shape.
