1. LN# 8 Cells

2. Cells Cells are the basic unit of living organisms.
The cell theory describes the connection between living things and cells.
The cell theory has 3 parts.

3. The Cell Theory All organisms are made of one or more cells.
The cell is the basic unit of organization of organisms.
All cells come from preexisting cells.

4. Prokaryote vs. Eukaryote
There are two types of cells.
Prokaryotic cells
Do not have membrane bound organelles.
They make up single celled organisms called bacteria.
Eukaryotic cells
Contain membrane bound organelles.
They make up single and multi cellular organisms.
Multi = humans
Single = paramecium

5. Organelles Membrane bound structures inside the cell.
                                              
Organelles
Membrane bound structures inside the cell.
Organelles allow specialized functions to occur inside the cell.
Some organelles include:
Mitochondria
Chloroplast
Nucleus
Plasma membrane

6. Plant vs. Animal Cells

7. Only in Plant Cells Cell wall Chloroplast Large vacuole
provides structure and support
also found in bacteria and fungi
Chloroplast
uses energy from the sun to make carbohydrates
Large vacuole
used for storage

8. Only in Animal Cells
Centriole
help cell during cell division
