Activity Title: Parts of animal and plant cells
Learning Target: Identify the major parts of plants and animal cells.

Cell- is the smallest basic structural and functional unit of an organism. The term cell was first
introduced in 1665 by Robert Hooke, an English physicist .
Major part of the animal and plant cells:
 Centrioles- It is an organelle found only in animal cells that functions during cell division.
 Chloroplast- A green pigment containing organelle found only in plant cells.
 Cytoplasm- It consist of a jelly- like substance where all the other parts of the cell are located.
 Endoplasmic reticulum- Transport protein to different parts of the cell.
 Mitochondria- “Power house of the cell” convert energy in food to a form usable to the cell.
 Organelle-The organelles embedded in the cytoplasm of both plants and animal cells are almost
the same but there are few distinct organelles that are unique and is only found in plant cell.
 Cytoskeleton- It provides interior framework for the animal cell.
 Nucleus- It is located in the cytoplasm of the cell.
 Cell membrane- It controls what enters and exits the cell such as water, nutrients and waste and
thereby protects and supports the cell.
 Golgi Body- It is a set of flattened sacs that serves as the packaging and distribution center of the
cell. It packages, stores, and secretes energy.
 Lysosomes- It contains powerful enzymes that digest food particle in the cell.
 Peroxisomes- They absorb nutrients that cell has acquired.
 Ribosomes- It is made of RNA and other protein.
 Vacuoles/Vesicles- They play a role in storing nutrients and increasing cell size during growth.

regulates all cell activities. Embedded in the cytoplasm are small structures with specific functions for
cell growth and development called the (6) _____. These are of different types and functions. (7)
___________ produces energy through chemical reactions – breaking down fats & carbohydrates.
