2. Content Area: Science
Grade Level: 5th Grade
Summary: The purpose of this power point is for the student to become familiar with different parts and functions of plant and animal cells.
Learning Objective: Given a picture or function, the student will be able to identify organelles inside plant and animal cells with 100% accuracy.
Content Standard: SPI Identify the major parts of plant and animal cells such as, the nucleus, cell membrane, cell wall, and cytoplasm.
Accomplishment: GLE Distinguish between the basic structures and functions of plant and animal cells.

3. First we need to familiarize ourselves with the parts of an animal cell
Click on the names of the organelles in the cell to see the function.
Plasma
Membrane
Mitochondria
Endoplasmic
Reticulum
Nucleus
Ribosomes
Lysosomes &
Peroxisomes
Golgi
Apparatus
Click when finished
Cytoplasm

4. Now let’s look at a plant cell!
Click on the names of the organelles in the cell to see the function
Mitochondria
Golgi
Apparatus
Cell Wall
Plasma
Membrane
Vacuole
Peroxisomes
Ribosomes
Cytoplasm
Nucleus
Chloroplast
Click when finished
Endoplasmic
Reticulum

5. Plasma Membrane
The plasma membrane of a cell is like a security guard of a building. It only lets certain people or things go in or out of the cell.

6. Endoplasmic Reticulum
The Endoplasmic Reticulum is like a little factory inside the cell. It, along with the help of a team, make proteins for the cell.

7. Golgi Apparatus
The golgi apparatus works with the endoplasmic reticulum to make the proteins it just created bigger and better; similar to an assembly line.

8. Ribosomes
Ribosomes are like protein production teams that work in the endoplasmic reticulum factory and transport the proteins around the cell.

9. Nucleus
The nucleus is the control center that tells the rest of the cell what to do.

10. Lysosomes & Peroxisomes
The lysosomes and peroxisomes are the recycle and waste centers of the cell.

12. Mitochondria
The mitochondria is what makes food for the cell. They act as the digestive system that breaks things down to make energy.

14. Cell Wall
Cell walls are only found in plant cells and help structure the cell and hold it all together.

15. Chloroplast
Chloroplast are only found in plant cells. They are what make the plant green. They work to create sugars and create the byproduct that we need to breathe.

16. What part of the cell makes food for the cell?
A. Endoplasmic Reticulum
B. Mitochondria
C. Nucleus
D. Cytoplasm

17. Which of these organelles is the golgi apparatus?
