    Lesson 1: Exploring Life

    Cell Theory:

    1) All organisms are made of cells

    2) The cell is the most basic (smallest) unit of life

    3) All cells come from other cells

    Characteristics of Life (All Living Things…)

    1) All living things are organized by cells

    2) All living things grow (get bigger) and develop (change)

    3) All living things reproduce (make babies)

    4) All living things respond to stimuli (react to changes in environment)

    5) All living things maintain internal conditions (keep internal temperature, blood-sugar the same)

    6) All living things use energy (from food or from sunlight)

    Unicellular Organisms: Organisms which are made of only ONE cell

    Multicellular Organisms: Organisms which are made of MANY cells

    Prokaryotic Cells: Simple cells, very small, no nucleus, not many organelles (bacteria)

    Eukaryotic Cells: More complicated cells, bigger, have a nucleus, have many organelles (plants/animals)

    Lesson 2: Cell Structure and Function


    1. Mitochondria – makes energy for the cell
    2. Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum – has ribosomes and is
    used for transportation
    3. Vacuole – a big air bubble, used for waste storage
    4. Cell wall – protects the cell and gives it structure
    5. Cytoplasm – the liquid inside the cell
    6. Chloroplast – converts sunlight into food for a plant cell
    7. Golgi Bodies – used to package proteins and make
    mucus
    8. Nucleus – houses the DNA
    9. Cell Membrane – is the skin of the cell, controls what
    comes in or goes out of the cell
    Both Plant and Animal Cells are EUKARYOTES and Plants and Animals are MULTICELLULAR

    The Differences between Plant and Animal Cells:

    1) Plant Cells have a cell wall, Animal cells don’t


    2) Plant Cells have chloroplasts, Animal cells don’t
    3) Plant Cells have one big vacuole that helps support the plant, Animal cells have many small
    vacuoles.

    Lesson 3: Structure and Support


    Function of Muscles:

    1) Help you move your body


    2) Keep your bones and joints held together firmly

    Function of Skeleton:

    1) Provides shape to your body and supports the weight of your body
    2) Protects internal organs
    3) Makes blood cells

    Three types of Muscles:

    1) Skeletal – Attached to your skeleton, are VOLUNTARY, contract to move bones


    2) Smooth – Inside stomach and intestines, are INVOLUNTARY, contract to move food through
    your body
    3) Cardiac – Inside the heart, are INVOLUNTARY, contract to move blood through your body

    Three Types of Skeletons:

    1) Hydrostatic – A tube filled with liquid, moves by pressure changes (worms, starfish, anemone)
    2) Exoskeleton – A shell on the outside of body (crabs, lobsters, shrimp, insects)
    3) Endoskeleton – Bones and cartilage inside the body (mammals, birds, reptiles, etc)

    Three Types of Joints:

    1) Ball and Socket – Can rotate and move back and forth (shoulders, hips)
    2) Hinge – Can only move back and forth (knees, elbows, fingers)
    3) Pivot – Can only rotate (neck, lower arm below the elbow)

    Ligaments – connect bone to bone

    Tendons – connect muscle to bone
