    This document provides a review of key concepts about cells that students need to know for an upcoming unit on cells. It lists learning objectives about describing characteristics that humans share with other living things and how human diseases result from interruptions to normal organ system functioning. It provides textbooks and online resources for students to review information about eukaryotic and prokaryotic cell structures, the functions of cell organelles, the cell cycle, mitosis, and meiosis. It also includes review questions testing understanding of these topics.

    What do I need to know for this unit?


    Learning Objective

    Describe the characteristics that human beings


    share with other living things.
    Describe how human diseases result from the
    interruption of normal organ system functioning,
    including AIDS, heart disease and cancer.

    Textbook:
    Biology of Humans (Goodenough; 5th Edition):
    Chapter 3 The Cell
    Chapter 19 Chromosomes and Cell Division

    Review Questions:
    1. Compare and contrast eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. What cellular structures do
    they both have? Which cellular structures do only eukaryotes have?
    Hint look at the list below (which is a list of the structures found in eukaryotic
    cells) and determine which of these are found in prokaryotic cells too.

    2. Identify and give the function for the following cell structures on the pictures on the
    last page.
    Identify the structures that are found only in animal or plant cells and which are
    found in both cell types.

    3. What is the function of the plasma membrane?


    A. What are 3 functions of proteins in the plasma membrane?
    4. Explain what happens in each stage of the cell cycle.
    A. In which stage(s) of the cell cycle does the cell spend the most time?
    5. Explain what happens in each stage of mitosis.
    A. Be able to identify cells in various stages of mitosis.
    6. Explain what happens in each stage of meiosis.
    A. What are homologous chromosomes?
    B. What is crossing over? Why is it important?
    7. Compare and contrast mitosis and meiosis. (Compare and contrast means list the
    differences and similarities.)
    A. How many cells do you have at the end of each process? Are these cells diploid
    or haploid?
    B. How is the process of mitosis similar/different to the process of meiosis?
