2.3 Eukaryotic cells

 * Assessment statements ** (IBO notes added to some point to clearly indicate what needs to be understood and what does not)


 * 2.3.1 || Draw and label a diagram of the ultrastructure of a liver cell as an example of an animal cell. Include free ribosomes, RER, lysosome, Golgi apparatus, mitochondrion and nucleus. ||
 * 2.3.2 || Annotate the diagram from 2.3.1 with the functions of each named structure. ||
 * 2.3.3 || Identify structures from 2.3.1 in electron micrographs of liver cells. ||
 * 2.3.4 || Compare prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. ||
 * 2.3.5 || State three differences between plant and animal cells. ||
 * 2.3.6 || Outline two roles of extracellular components. Good examples are the plant cell wall (prevents excessive water uptake, strength and structure) and glycoproteins in animals (support, adhesion and movement). ||


 * Starter - organelle meet and greet**
 * You have 5 minutes to find out about a chosen organelle choices are limited to: free ribosomes, RER, lysosome, Golgi apparatus, mitochondrion and nucleus
 * Label yourself with the name of the organelle
 * When your organelle is named introduce yourself to the other organelles, describe your structure, where you can be found, and your function to the other organelles
 * When it is your turn move around the room and find out about other organelles
 * Tell the class about an organelle other than yourself

How well are your drawing skills progressing? Watch and draw your own example eukaryote media type="custom" key="24508052"

Log in to the [|DCS Bridge] to obtain your workbooks and supporting resources
 * Workbooks and Worksheets**

Essential Biology [|2.2 & 2.3 Prokaryotes & Eukaryotes] is an alternate set of notes encompassing both Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes

Build cell and organelle models
 * Approach**

Now after the starter and modelling activities complete your workbook

[|McGraw-Hill online learning] has a very basic introduction to eukaryotes. Listen, read and take notes then move on to the other resources.
 * Presentations and tutorials**

Steven Taylor ([|i-Biology]) has a great presentation to view and take notes from before starting your notebook media type="custom" key="23679984"

Jason De Nys also has a very good presentation to use for note development media type="custom" key="24508074"

Use the [|Wiley Science] or the [|Shepard Software] tutorials on both animal and plant cells to reinforce learning and augment your notes.

Review the assessment statements and complete your notes using [|Click Biology]

The John Kyrk animation is a very straighforward way to learn about the [|anatomy of a typical animal cell]

The [|Shepard Software games] are a quick easy way to review eukaryotic cell structure.

What is the [|function of golgi apparatus (KScience)]? This animation is a nice easy visual explanation

Learn about the structure of eukaryotic cells using the [|tutorial and self-test] from Mr T Brown

The [|biostuff tutorials] can be used later after note taking to check and reinforce knowledge as it directly reflecting the assessment statements.

Use teaching and visualization animations from St Olaf:
 * The explorable animal cell includes links to other sites to give further detail on the organelles
 * The endomembrane protein synthesis animation shows the roles the different organelles play in the creation of proteins for secretion

[|Pearson's Biocoach] can also be used to review your learning. Put your books away and use the quiz to check how much knowledge and understanding you have retained.

This [|interactive animation] from the University of Utah allows you to explore inside animal and plant cells, learning about the roles of the organelles and other sub-cellular structures**.** On the same site you can also learn about [|the inside story of cell communication].
