LTLT#4 Upcoming Assignments:


Cell Exit Ticket
1.     What is a Cell?
2.     Write down your definition of what an organelle is.


In your science journal, draw:
1.     An animal cell diagram
2.     A plant cell diagram

Diagrams should be:
-Accurately drawn (ex: animal cell should be roundish, plant cell should be rectangular-shaped)
-Neat & legible
-Labeled with parts, specific for each cell type (Ex: animal cells do not have cell walls or chloroplasts)
-Colorful



Cell Organelle Chart
1. Name the 12 cell organelles.
2. Create an illustration that represents the organelle. (ex: Cell membrane is like a door)
3. Write a short description of the organelle, and illustration.


Q: What can you compare a cell to?
Instructions:
1.     Choose something to compare a cell to. (Car, airplane, school, etc.)
2.     Choose either a plant or animal cell
3.     List the appropriate parts.
4.     Create analogies of each cell part, in relation to the thing you’re comparing the cell too.
Ex: If a plant cell were like a school, then the chloroplast would be like solar panels.
      5. Draw a neat, colorful, labeled diagram of your cell comparison.


For each LTLT#4 Vocabulary Word:
1.     Write a definition
2.     Write an example
3.     Draw a picture

Vocabulary Words:

Mini Quiz
Multiple Choice, 3 question quiz. Based on class work, and working through Cell Evidence Packets
1. What is the basic living unit in a plant leaf?
a. a molecule
b. a cell
c. an atom
d. an element

2. In trees and many plants, xylem transports water and nutrients from the roots to the leaves. Xylem is the most accurately defined as which of the following?
a. a cell
b a tissue
c. an organ
d an organ system

3. Which of the following statements about unicelluar organisms (Single-celled) organisms is correct?
a. unicellular organisms can carry out all the functions of life within one cell
b. unicellular organisms have tissues that perform certain functions
c. unicellular organisms are not living things and cannot carry out the functions of life
d. unicelluarl organisms have 1 organ that carries out most of it's important functions


Cell Short Reponse
Q: Where are cells and cell products found in a living organism?
Choose an idea that BEST matches your thinking, from the following choices.
1. Liquids in the body, such as saliva or blood, DO NOT contain cells or cell products
2. The outer covering of an organism, such as its shells or skin is not made of cells or cell products
3. only certain parts of an organism's body, such as muscles, contains cells and cell products.
4. Entire organisms are made up of cells and cell products.

WHY? Based on your evidence, list the reasons why your idea is either correct or incorrect.
*list 2-3 pieces of evidence from your investigation in class, on Tuesday 1/21 and Wed 1/22


Cell Chemical Compound Chart


Cell Compounds Exit Ticket
LT: I can describe the chemical compounds that make up a cell
1. What are the chemical compounds in a cell?
2. How do the chemical compounds in a cell help it to function. (Help it work? )



Cell Diffusion Quiz
1. Which of the following statements is TRUE about cells?
     a. cells make up only living things
     b. cells make up all living things
     c. cells make up everything in the world
2. Which part of the cell is responsible for providing ENERGY to the cell?
3. Which part of the cell is semi-permeable and and acts as a FILTER for the cell?
4. Which part of the cell is responsible for breaking down food and RECYCLING old cell parts

Short Response:
Diffusion occurs in cells through a process called osmosis. In class we did an experiment demonstrating diffusion with iodine and cornstarch in a plastic baggie. What is diffusion, and how did the lab demonstrate it? Make sure to answer all parts of the rubric.
a. explains/defines diffusion
b. explains how the lab demonstrated diffusion
c. identifies which cell part the plastic baggie represented and why.


Lab Data: Observing Osmosis In Gummy Bears
LT: I can investigate the movement of water into and out of a Gummy Bear (a gelatin polymer)
Problem: Where is the concentration of water molecules the highest; tap water, distilled water, salt water, or gummy bears?
Assessed on:
1. Data Table for Volume
2. Data Table for Mass
3. Correct use of labels (cm, grams, etc)
4. Analysis Questions-completion and depth of thought
5. Graphs of Mass and Volume-Comparing changes from Day 1 and Day 2


DNA Exit Ticket
LT: I can describe the structure and function of DNA
 1. What is DNA?
2. What are the base pairs of DNA?
3. How is DNA related to genes and traits?
LTLT#4


Create a representation of DNA.
Include:
-Representations of the 4 nucleotides, in 4 different colors.
-Accurate pairings of the nucleotides, AT, and GC
-Include information on DNA, chromosomes, genes and traits.
*can be on hand drawn on paper (2D) diagram, or a 3D Model
