Introduction to Cells

Hello class! Monday we will begin our unit on cells.  I would like you to get started by taking a look at cell structures.  Here is a great website to get you started:

This is an interactive site to help you begin to know some terminology associated with cell structures.  Please be prepared by knowing these terms:
1. Mitochondrion
2. Golgi apparatus
3. Endoplasmic reticulum ~ two types
4. Vesicle
5. Nucleus
6. Vacuole
7. Chromatin
8. Lysosome
9. Ribosomes
10. Centriole

There is a difference from the cell on the left and the cell on the right. How do they differ? What major difference can you describe?
