1	Cells/Living Systems SOL 5.5 by Ellen Benegar Suffolk Public Schools
2	Basic Cell Facts All living things are made from cells. New cells come from existing cells. Cells are too small to be seen with the eye. You can use a microscope to see many parts of a cell.
3	Animal Cells Animal cells are a spherical (globe-like) shape. They can sometimes be an irregular shape.
4	Structure and Function of Animal Cells Nucleus- controls and regulates all cell activities Cell Membrane- protects and supports the cell Vacuole- stores food, water and cell waste Cytoplasm-contains and supports the cell organelles. It is a thick, jelly-like substance. Link to an interactive cell to show the functions of each part
5	Plant Cells Plant cells have a more rectangular shape because the cell wall is more rigid.
6	Structure and Function of Plant Cells Nucleus- controls and regulates cell activities Cell Wall- provides support and protection for the plant Cell Membrane- protects and supports the cell Vacuole-stores food, water and waste materials of the cell Chloroplasts-they make food for the plant Cytoplasm-contains and supports the cell organelle. It is a thick, jelly-like substance. Link to interactive plant cell functions.
7	PLANT CELL vs ANIMAL CELL
8	Move the correct description to classify whether it belongs to plants or animals or both.
9	Categorizing Living Things Organisms that share similar characteristics can be organized into groups to help understand similarities and differences.
10	5 Kingdoms Living things can be categorized into 5 different kingdoms: Monerans Protists Fungi Plants Animals
11	Monerans Consist of:
12	Protists Consist of:
13	Fungi Consist of:

15	Vascular Plants These plants have special tissues to transport food and water. Most plants are vascular. Examples of vascular plants are trees, flowering plants and ferns.
16	Nonvascular Plants Do not have tissues to transport food and water. Examples of nonvascular plants are mosses.
