 Illustrations in Figures 1 and 2
Procedure
1. Study closely Figures 1 and 2. These are diagrammatic presentations of plant and
animal cells and their parts.
Q1. Compare the shape of a plant cell with that of an animal cell.
Q2. Which cell parts are found in both cells?
Q3. Which are present only in animal cells?
Q4. Which are present only in plant cells?
Q5. Based on your observations and study of plant and animal cells, cite differences and
similarities between them.
Q6. What do you think will happen to the cell if the plasma membrane does not function
properly?
Q7. What is the purpose of the cell wall in plants?
Q8. Look at Fig. 1 again. Why are there several chloroplasts in the plant cell?
Q9. How would vacuoles in plants serve as defense against animals that eat them?
D. Discussion

Teacher’s Activity Student’s Activity

What are the three basic The nucleus, plasma membrane

parts of the cell? and cytoplasm.

What is Nucleus? It controls all the activities of

the other parts that occur within
the cell.

What is Plasma Membrane? It encloses the cell and separates

what is inside it from its
environment.
What is Cytoplasm? It consist of a jelly-like
substance where all the other
parts of the cell are located.
What are the two parts of plant The cell walls and
cell that are not found in animal cells? chloroplasts.

What is Cell Wall? The cell wall is made of stiff

material that forms the
outermost part of plant cells.

What is Vacuole? They play a role in storing

nutrients and increasing cell size
during growth.
What is a Vesicle? They serve as storage of water
and food and function in the
excretion of waste materials.
What is Centrioles? It is an organelle found only in
animal cells that functions
during cell division.
What is Chloroplast? A green pigment-containing
organelle found only in plant
cells.
What part of animal cells that The centrioles.
are not found in plant cells

E. Application
A Venn Diagram shows relationships between and among sets or groups of objects that
have something in common. It uses two circles that overlap with one another. The
common things are found in the overlapping area, while the differences are in the non-
overlapping areas.

 F. Generalization

What are the parts of the cell? Cell wall, chloroplast, nucleus,
plasma membrane, cytoplasm,
mitochondrion, golgi body,
smooth ER, rough ER,
lysosome, vacouke/vesicle and
centrioles.

Describe plant and animal cell? Plant cells are rectangular or

angular or rigid in shape, while
animal cells are rounded and
somewhat irregular.

Differentiate plant cells from animal cells? Differences between plant and
animal cells:
Plant cells have cell walls and
chloroplasts which animal cells
do not have. Animal cells have
centrioles which plant cells do
not have.
Similarity between plant and
animal cells:
Both plant and have animal cells
have common parts namely: the
nucleus, plasma membrane,
cytoplasm, the mitochondrion,
rough and smooth endoplasmic
reticulum, Golgi body,
vacuole/vesicle and lysosome.

IV. Evaluation
Part I. Directions: choose the letter of the correct answer to the following questions.
1. What controls most of the cell processes and contains the hereditary information of
the DNA?
a. Mitochondria c. Nucleus
b. Chloroplast d. Nucleolus
2. What is a cell membrane?
a. A thin flexible barrier around the cell that regulates transport.
b. A rigid cover that provides support for the cell.
c. The place where light energy, water and carbon dioxide are used.
d. Convert solar energy to chemical energy.
3. What is the main function of Cell Wall?
a. To protect and provide support for the cell
b. Convert solar energy to chemical energy
c. Build proteins
d. Takes in carbon dioxide
4. They are look like the ER, its function is to modify proteins made by the cell and
pack and export proteins to the cell parts.
a. Nucleus c. Mitochondria
b. Ribosomes d. Golgi apparatus
5. It controls all the activities of the other parts that occur within the cell.
a. The nucleus c. The chloroplast
