Biology Project Cell Parts (Organelles) Mr. Nair

Due date(

You will choose one of the following projects to demonstrate what you have learned about the structure and function of cell parts. Spelling and grammar are an important part of this project. No food items (perishable) may be used.

Choose either a plant cell or animal cell and present it using one of the options listed below. All written portions must be securely mounted and integrated on the project.

Written Portion Requirements

1. All parts of the cell project clearly labeled and attached to the project

2. Description, Function and a picture of each of the cell parts listed below

3. Bridge maps of each organelle are listed.

Organelles to be included in BOTH CELLS:

cell membrane

rough endoplasmic reticulum

smooth endoplasmic reticulum

golgi apparatus

nucleolus

nucleus

ribosomes

mitochondria

Organelles to be included in PLANT CELLS ONLY:

cell wall

chloroplast

vacuole

Organelles to be included in ANIMAL CELLS ONLY:

lysosomes

centrioles

cilia and flagella

Project ( Build a City, House, Factory, Country, Island, or School Like a Cell. Build a 3D model. Using the 10 cell parts above either for a plant or animal cell, show how each has a job similar to a section or building in a model city, island, country, etc. Each part of the city must be easily recognizable. If you use “city hall” to represent the nucleus, it must look similar to a city hall building. It must also be clearly labeled with the cell part it represents and state why you chose to use it in your model (analogy). Example “Here is city hall. It represents the nucleus of the cell because this is the control center that directs the activities of the city like the nucleus directs the activities of the cell."
