Elementary Science Resource Teacher

2. All living things are made up of cells.
Bacteria cells
Protozoan cells
Fungi cells
Plant cells and
Animal cells

3. Plant Cells Plants are classified into the Plant Kingdom.
Plants may be grouped into
Vascular or non-vascular
Plants are made up of
plant cells.
Plant cells have:
- a strong cell wall,
-large water vacuoles, and
-several chloroplast for
photosynthesis used in
energy & food production.

4. Plant cells Plant cells are usually square or rectangle shaped.
Cell wall
Cell membrane
Plant cells are usually square or rectangle
shaped.
Plant cells have:
-cell wall,
- cell membrane,
--chloroplasts, -nucleus,
-large vacuoles for food & water, and
- cytoplasm to protect all the internal organelles.

5. Plant Cells Multi celled organisms
Cytoplasm is the clear jelly like matter that protects the inside cell organelles.
Cell walls are found in plant cells but not in animal cells. They are stiff, non-living cell parts that help shape the plant cell.

6. Plant Cells
*Cell membrane holds the cell together and lets substances pass in and out of its pores.
Chloroplasts are organelles in some plant and protist cells. They contain chlorophyll that helps the plant cell store solar (SUN) energy.

7. Review Question #1: What do these plant cell organelles do?B
chloroplasts
cell wall C D
vacuoles
cytoplasm

8. Question #2: Which gas is used by plants during photosynthesis?-
A carbon dioxide
B oxygen
C nitrogen
D phosphorus

9. Answer to question #2.
You got it! A
Plants use carbon dioxide during photosynthesis and they excrete (their waste) oxygen.

10. Question #3: Which of these is the source of energy
for photosynthesis?
A Gravity
B Electricity
C Magnetism
D Sunlight

11. Answer to #3: Yes, sunlight D.
Sunlight is the source of energy for plant photosynthesis.

12. Can you name some of the Parts of a PLANT CELL?

13. What do animal cells look like?
Animal cells tend to be sphere or round shaped.
Animal cells have:
-cell membrane to hold the cell together,
-cytoplasm a watery gel inside the cell,
-nucleus with a nuclear membrane, and
-sometimes small vacuoles where
food and chemicals are stored.

14. Animal Cells -cytoplasm- jelly like gel that suspend organelles
Each animal cell has:
-a cell membrane- holds cell together and allows substances in and out of the cell,
-cytoplasm- jelly like gel that
suspend organelles
inside the cell,
-a nucleus- the control center;
or the “Brain,” of the cell,
-nuclear membrane- allows substances to pass in & out
of the nucleus.
nucleus

15. Animal Kingdom Animals are classified into the Animal Kingdom.
Animals are consumers.
(They must eat food to live.)
Animals can be grouped as
Invertebrates or vertebrates.
Invertebrate -No backbone
Vertebrates - Backbone present

16. Animal Kingdom: Can you classify these animals?
butterfly
hamster
mouse
spider
humans
worm
seahorse
turtle
frog
fish
octopus
seastar

17. Animal Kingdom:Answers
