** WHAT'S COVERED **
1. What cells are
The definition of cells as the basic building blocks of life.
How cells replicate to form organisms.
2. The function of the cell membrane
How the selectively permeable membrane controls which substances enter and leave the cell.
Allowing nutrients in, removing waste, and keeping harmful substances out.
3. Subcellular structures (organelles) in animal and plant cells
An overview of the common structures: nucleus, cytoplasm, cell membrane, mitochondria, and ribosomes.
The specific function of each of these common organelles.
4. The differences between animal and plant cells
Exploring the structures found only in plant cells: the rigid cell wall, permanent vacuole, and chloroplasts.
The roles of these unique structures in supporting the plant cell.
