Cells & Tissues
Objectives:
At the end of this activity, the students will be able to:
Explain the significance of the cell as the fundamental unit of life.
Describe and identify the unique features of a prokaryotic cell.
Describe and identify the unique features of an animal cell.
Describe the roles of the organelles in these cells.
The cell is the basic structural and functional unit of life. It has all the main structures
to perform the basic activities to keep it alive: nutrition, respiration, responsiveness,
reproduction, growth and adaptability.
The cells are either prokaryotic, meaning they have no membrane bound nucleus or
they are eukaryotic, which have a membrane bound nucleus. These are however, more
differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. The cell is made of protoplasm; its
living portion. The protoplasm is organized into a nucleus and the cytoplasm.
Questions to answer:
1) What is the importance of a microscope in the study of the cell structures? (3 pts)

Cell cycle: Mitosis
Somatic Cell Division
Somatic (soma = body) cell division occurs when one cell divides to produce two
genetically identical cells. Cell division is needed for growth of the individual, wound
healing, and replacement of old and dying cells
The cell cycle can be divided into two basic periods: interphase, a long period during
which the cell conducts its normal activity, grows, and prepares for cell division; and the
mitotic phase when the cell is dividing. The mitotic phase consists of mitosis, or nuclear
division, and cytokinesis, or cytoplasmic division. The four stages of mitosis are
prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.

Identify the stages of mitosis:
A._____________________Prophase
B._____________________Interphase
C._____________________Anaphase
D._____________________Telophase
E._____________________Metaphase
