SCENARIO
You work as an educational assistant at W5. You are putting together an information pack to tell other learners about the structure and function of animal cells. You should include a labelled, ideal animal cell, linking each structure to its function.

Task1- this task covers grading criteria P1: describe the organisation of the eukaryotic cell in terms of the functions of the organelles

Produce a large labelled diagram of a typical animal cell and describe the functions of each of the following organelles.
Nucleus, nucleolus, plasma membrane, mitochondria, rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum, cytoplasm, Golgi apparatus lysosomes
Task 2 – this task covers grading criteria P2: describe the four different tissue types

a) Draw examples of the four different tissue types. Label your drawings.
b) Describe the structure and function of the tissues you have drawn.
Task 3 – this task covers grading criteria M1: use diagrams or micrographs to compare and contrast the four tissue types

Using the diagrams below to compare and contrast the four types of tissue.
Types of muscle tissue
a. Directions: Look at the following pictures of the 3 types of muscle tissues. Observe the characteristics of each tissue. Fill in the chart below

skeletal smooth cardiac shape of cell

Large, Smooth, Lot of space between cells Long, Interlaced
Lots of different shapes/sizes location of nucleus

Edge of the glory Centre of cell
Centre of cell presence of striations

Task 4 – this task covers grading criteria D1: explain the relationship between cells, tissues, organs and organ systems in the organisation of the human body

Choose two organ systems and explain the levels of organisation from organelles to organ system, between cells, tissues and organs within each system.
