Study Guide
Learning Goals
I will be able to identify organelles and other cell componenets, including the
nucleus, cell membrane, cell wall, chloroplasts, vacuole, mitochondria, and
cytoplasym and explain their basic functions.

I will be able to compare the structure and function of plant and animal cells.

I will be able to explain the processes of diffusion and osmosis within a cell.

I will be able to describe various.multicellular organisms and compare ways in

which these two types of organisms meet their basic needs.
