How do plant & animal cells make and use energy?
Students show the relationship between the need for plants to undergo photosynthesis in order to generate oxygen. They see the flaws associated with this thinking because of the lack of CO2 and H2O and lack of sufficient gravity in order...
Curated OER
PROTOPLAST PRODUCTION
Students are allowed to strip away the cell walls of plants cells (using enzymes) and then observe the resulting spherical protoplasts (plant cells minus the cell wall). They see that plants cells indeed have a plasma membrane in...
Curated OER
Compare and Contrast Plant and Animal Cell
In this plant and animal cells worksheet, students complete a chart, checking features that describe cell parts. Features will describe either plant, animal, or both types of cells.
