Objective 8: Study and gather information about a human cell of your choice
A. Understand
1. Choose any type of cell in the human body, learn as much as you can about that cell. Feel free to use the internet or other resources to learn about the cell of your choice. Click on the following link to choose a cell type of your choice:
List of Distinct Cell Types of the Adult Human Body
B. Practice
1. Complete the following worksheet and see how well you know different types of cells. Check the answer key when you are finished to see how well you did.

C. Check for Understanding (on a prezi)
1. Present your findings to me and your fellow biologists using Prezi, an interactive powerpoint presentation.
www.prezi.com
(If you are an honors biologist, you must become on expert on two different cell types and make Prezis for both. You will only be required to present your findings for one of the two cells to the clsss.)
To provide you with some guidance, here are some items you must learn and present in order to fully consider yourself an expert on the cell you have chosen:
1. How is your cell an example of a eukaryotic cell? (use Obj. 1 to help you)
2. Function of the plasma membrane (use Obj. 2 to help you)
3. Structure of the plasma membrane (use Obj. 3 to help you)
4. Structure and function of all main organelles in the cell (use Obj. 4 to help you)
5. How the chosen cell demonstrates cellular transport (use Obj. 5-7 to help you)
6. Function of the cell you chose in the human body
7. Important and interesting facts about the cell you have chosen
*****Note**************************************************************************************************************************************
Your presentation must be on a prezi
Your presentation must be from 5-7 minutes long
Your last slide must show all of the websites and resources you used for your presentation
