3.3 Cell Structure Video Guide
Use this video notes guide to take notes on the Cell Types, Structure and Function.
We viewed many types of cells that make up the human body in this video. Record one
or two things that cells can do in the body.
The cells in our body undergo over 500 quadrillion chemical reactions every second.
(Our notes tell us that ribosomes are the 4th structure all cells have in common.)
Eukaryotic Cells: They have organelles which include the nucleus and other special
parts. They are more advanced complex cells.
Prokaryotic Cells: They don’t have a nucleus or membrane enclosed organelles. They
do have genetic material but it’s not contained within a nucleus. They are unicellular
organisms.
