    Middle School Project
    Students learn about the animal eukaryotic cell using an analogy. This project is to supplement your normal teaching about the cell. Great project for students to remember the organelles and structure of the cell. Topics include cell membrane, mitochondria, riosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, vacuoles, lysosomes, and the nucleus. Extension topics include, channel proteins, receptor proteins, peroxisomes, and the cytoskeleton.

    Cheek Cell Lab
    Free Lesson Plan
     
    High School Lab
    In this short lab, students take a sample of cheek cells from themselves using a toothpick, put a stain on the slide along with the cheek cells, and observe the nucleus and cell membrane under a microscope. Students also answer analysis questions about the procedure and cells.

Cell Organelle Concepts

  • Eukaryotes - eukaryotic animal cells, eukaryotic plant cells.
  • Prokaryotes - prokaryotic single cell organisms.
  • Nucleus - nucleolus, nuclear pores, nuclear envelope, DNA.
  • Ribosomes - protein synthesis, ribosomal RNA, ribosomal proteins, messenger RNA, transfer RNA, amino acids, polypeptide chain, proteins.
  • Endoplasmic Reticulum - rough endoplasmic reticulum, smooth endoplasmic reticulum, cell transportation, protein translation, proteins, lipids.
  • Golgi Apparatus - Golgi body, Golgi complex, cell packaging, vesicles, proteins, lipids.
  • Mitochondria & Chloroplast
  • Lysosomes - digestive enzymes
  • Central Vacuole - cell sap, water, salts (calcium), inorganic ions (K+ and Cl-), enzymes, toxic byproducts.
  • Cell Wall - cellulose, cell shape, protection, filtering mechanism, found in plants, bacteria, Archaea, fungi, and algae.
  • Cytoplasm - cytosol.
  • Cytoskeleton - microfilaments, microtubules / centrioles.
