1 Cell Model Project Modeling Cell Structure You will plan to make a model of an animal cell using household items. You are not actually making the model. You are creating a plan that would show how you would make it- like an architect would create the plan for making a building. Guidelines: ü Your diagram must be hypothetically 3-dimensional, as was shown in class. This means it would need to have height, width and depth. ü Your plan must be colored, neat and creative. ü Cell Parts Required as Representations and labeled: o cell membrane o cytoplasm o nucleus o vacuole o mitochondrion ü The cell part representations must be similar to the real cell parts in their structure For example, the nucleus is round in shape and controls cell activities. The nucleus representation should not be square and should represent a control center. ü Make a key that identifies each cell-part representation. Analysis and Reflection (to be answered on a separate sheet of paper): 1. Describe the structure and function of each cell part included in your diagram. 2. For each cell part, describe why you chose the item as a representation. 3. What were the easiest and most challenging parts in creating your plan? Which cell part was most challenging to model? Why? Which cell part was easiest to model? Why?

2 Representations Key Creativity Structure & Function Analysis Rationale Analysis Reflection Most required cell parts Several required cell parts are properly labeled and are properly labeled and represented in structure represented in structure All required cell parts are properly labeled and represented in structure All cell structures are neatly and correctly identified on a key with the name of each cell part and representation. All of the graphics used in the model reflect an exceptional degree of and function of all cell parts. for all cell part Thoroughly identifies and explains easiest and most challenging parts of plan. One cell part is missing/ incorrect. Most of the graphics used in the model reflect student creativity in their Thoroughly and correctly describes the structure and function of most cell parts. Thoroughly and correctly describes the rationale for most cell part Identifies and explains easiest and most challenging parts of plan. Two cell parts are missing/ incorrect. The key is not neatly presented. Several of the graphics used in the model reflect creation and/or display. and function of several cell parts. for several cell part Identifies easiest and most challenging parts of plan. Explanation is general. Few required cell parts are properly labeled and represented in structure Three or more cell parts are missing/incorrect. Graphics used in the model reflect little and function of few cell parts. for few cell part Identifies easiest or most challenging part of plan. Explanation is general. A cell membrane is neatly presented on the model and key. Self Peer Structure and function of a cell membrane is thoroughly described. The rationale for the cell membrane representation is clear. Cytoplasm is neatly presented on the model and key. Structure and function of cytoplasm is thoroughly described. The rationale for the cytoplasm representation is clear. A nucleus is neatly presented on the model and key. Structure and function of a nucleus is thoroughly described. The rationale for the nucleus representation is clear. A vacuole is neatly presented on the model and key. Structure and function of a vacuole is thoroughly described. The rationale for the vacuole representation is clear. A mitochondrion is neatly presented on the model and key. Structure and function of a mitochondrion is thoroughly described. The rationale for the mitochondrion representation is clear. Easiest and most challenging parts are explained.

3 Name: Planning Sheet Sketch and label your model plan in the space below: Create a key that identifies what each cell part is represented by: Key cell membrane: cytoplasm: nucleus: vacuole: mitochondrion:

4 Analysis and Reflection: 1. Describe the structure and function of each cell part: The cell membrane The cytoplasm The nucleus The vacuole The mitochondrion

5 2. For each cell part, describe why you chose the item as a representation: I used to represent the cell membrane I used to represent the cytoplasm I used to represent the nucleus I used to represent the vacuole I used to represent the mitochondrion 3. What were the easiest and most challenging parts in creating your plan? -The most challenging cell part to model was because -The easiest cell part to model was because
