Today…on pg 14 of your journal If you didn’t do your homework… Cornell notes over Answer questions 5 and 6 on pg 186 Answer questions 1-8 on page 211 If you did your homework Divide your paper into 8 sections. At each slide record the name, draw what you see, is it prokaryotic or eukaryotic (how do you know)

Below your notes, number 1-6. With a partner, decide whether the cells on each slide are a prokaryotic or eukaryotic slide. Be sure to put a reason WHY you chose your answer.

Prokaryotic or Eukaryotic?

Answers: 1.Prokaryotic—no nucleus, no organelles 2.Eukaryotic—plant cells, green discs are chloroplasts (organelle) 3.Eukaryotic—complex, contains a nucleus, many organelles 4.Prokaryotic—small, simple, no organelles are seen 5.Prokaryotic—small, simple, no organelles are seen 6.Eukaryotic—unicellular, organelles present

…on the top of the paper write “Endosymbiotic Theory” Only write what is in bold!

Endosymbiotic Theory “endo” = inside of “sym” = together “biotic” = living “theory” = scientific explanation based on scientific evidence …Put that all together and you get…

Endosymbiotic Theory The theory that the eukaryotic cell is actually composed of prokaryotic cells – One prokaryotic cell living inside of another prokaryotic cell, made a more complex cell called the eukaryotic cell Organelles were once independent prokaryotes
