Cell Organelle Lesson Plan

Topic: There are two major cell types in relation to living organisms, Eukaryotes and

Prokaryotes. Living organisms are made of cells which have various organelles that preform

different functions. Each organelle is unique and necessary in a process called cellular

respiration.

Goal: The goal is for students to be knowledgeable about the different cell types and the

different organelles within cells.

Objectives:

1. Students will be able to compare and contrast the cell types Eukaryotes and Prokaryotes.

2. Students will identify different cell organelles based off shape and relative position.

3. Students will understand that various organelles preform different functions in each cell.

Materials

• PowerPoint presentation

• Cell organelle handout

• Computer (students)

• PowerPoint software (students)

• Internet (not required but recommended)

Procedure:

Opener: The PowerPoint will start with a somewhat unrecognizable slide of a cell;

which students may be asked to identify. After any guesses or correct responses, students
 may then view the next slide which shows clear images of various cells, leading to a

famous cartoon character named Cell. After which, the topic of the presentation may be

revealed.

Lesson: Students will first question and identify the two types of cellular organisms,

Eukaryotes and Prokaryotes, shown with the PPT. Students will then be shown and

lectured about various organisms and where they fit into the two groups to demonstrate

further understanding. With the introduction of various cell types, students will then be

shown via PPT diagrams of specified cell organelles within each cell type. Cell Handout

can now be passed out. Students will be instructed to complete the given assignment that

is listed at the end of the PPT. Last, students will be shown a premade example of part of

the assignment and then begin the assignment.

Closure: Assistance to any students may now be acknowledged as students begin to

compose their own PPT that describes cell organelles, in accordance to the instruction

given on the teachers PPT.

Assessment: Students will be assessed on the completion of the assignment. Completion of the

assignment includes the required number of type of cells and organelles and accuracy of the

description of cell organelles. Further details located in the grading rubric.

Set Building: Concepts learned in this lesson will lead into cell respiration and cell division.

Special Needs Accommodation: Students with hearing disabilities may use FM listening

devices as per IEP. Students with visual disabilities may use screen magnifiers as per IEP. Any

special instruction that may be needed shall be accommodated.

Cellular Respiration
• Cellular respiration is the process where the cell takes sugar and breaks it
down to use the energy to produce ATP. ATP is the way for a cell to store
energy to be used later for a variety of processes.
But first! An activity
Cell Organelle Diagram
• Using PowerPoint or Paint, create a picture diagram of each of the
following : Animal Cell, Plant Cell, Bacteria Cell

• Make sure to label what kind of cell is on each slide!

• Diagram must include: Cell Wall, Cell Membrane, Capsule, Cytoplasm,

Nucleus + Nucleolus or DNA, Chloroplast, Mitochondria, Endoplasmic
Reticulum, Vacuole, Lysosome, Ribosomes, Pili, Flagellum, and Golgi Body

• Note that some of the listed Organelles do not go with certain types of
cells! (ex. Cell Walls are NOT found in Animal Cells)

• Does not have to be exact size or shape, but make it somewhat

accurate! (DO NOT make every organelle the same shape)

• Use the Cells handout and/or the internet to create your diagram

• Email me the completed assignment when done

 Cells
• There are two types of cell, prokaryotic (bacteria) and eukaryotic (animal, plant, fungi
and protoctista (unicellular organisms)).
• Prokaryotes have no nucleolus – the DNA is in the cytoplasm, and it can from small
circular strands of DNA called plasmids.
• Eukaryotic cells all have their DNA enclosed in a nucleus.
• Note that viruses are not cells, by DNA with a protein coating.
• Prokaryotic cells all have small ribosomes, whereas eukaryotic all have larger
ribosomes.
• All eukaryotic cells have a nucleus, mitochondria, Golgi body, vesicles and endoplastic
reticulum. Prokaryotic have none of these organelles.
• Prokaryotic cells have cell walls, but only plant cells and fungi have walls in the
eukaryotic class.
• Any eukaryotic cell with a flagella have a 9 + 2 microtubule arrangement, but prokaryotic
do not have a 9 + 2 arrangement.
• A bacterial cell contains cytoplasm, nucleus and ribosomes. Its external structure is
made up of a cytoplasmic membrane, a cell wall and a capsule, which is surrounded by
pilli, which is a type of a small hair, which coats the outer body.
• A plant cell contains cytoplasm, a vacuole, mitochondria, Golgi, smooth and rough
endoplastic reticulum, a nucleus, ribosomes and a peroxisome. Its body is made of a
plasma membrane and a cell wall. This wall keeps it rigid.
• An animal cell contains Cytoplasm, Centriols, Peroxisome, Lysosome’s, Microfilaments,
Mitochondria, Rough and Smooth Endoplastic Reticulum, a Nucleus, Chromatin,
Ribosome’s, Microtubules and a Golgi apparatus. Its made of a Plasma Membrane with
Cilia, small hairs, surrounding the entire cell.
• The Cytoplasm is what suspends all the other organelles in the cell
• Lysosomes are made by the smooth ER, and are used to destroy and recycle old
organelles and microorganisms that the cell no longer needs. Mitochondria are used to
produce energy (in the form of ATP) in the cell.
• The rough endoplasmic reticulum is used to produce proteins, using ribosomes that
cover their surface. The proteins are normally in the form of mostly tRNA. The nucleus
controls the whole cell, and is the largest organelle.
