Summary

This is a good activity or an assignment to be used in the sub topic structure and function of cells. It requires students to make a model of a selected cell (animal cell or plant cell). The document includes pictures of sample models....

Description

Biology 3D Model of a Cell Task: Create a labelled 3D cell model of a chosen cell (either animal cell OR plant cell) in which the function of all the organelles are listed in a key attached with your model. Your cell model should 3-D. If you choose to make any part of the project 2-D you will not be eligible for all possible points.  You should show ALL the organelles given in the list. You may choose to add in extra organelles if you can.  Creatively represent their functions, for example: - nucleus act like the brain, because the nucleus controls all the cells activities and the brain controls the body. 

Marks will be deducted for not making a 3D model. But if you wish, I have added instructions for a simple 2-D model below. Make an animal cell model 1) On your sheet of paper, draw the cell membrane of the animal cell. 2) The yellow paper represents the cytoplasm. Cut the yellow paper in the shape of your cell and glue it. 3) To make the nucleus, choose some coloured paper and cut a round circle. Stick it on top of the yellow paper. 4) To make the endoplasmic reticulum, cut a long piece of pipe cleaners and make a zig-zag shape. Stick it with one end attached to your nucleus on the yellow paper. 5) To make the vacuole, cut a small white paper circle and stick it on the yellow paper. 6) To make the lysosomes, cut few circles from pink colour paper and stick it on the yellow paper. 7) To make mitochondria cut few oval shapes using orange colour paper and draw the inner membrane using a colour pen as shown below.

8) To make golgi apparatus, cut 4 short pieces of a pipe cleaner and stack them on the top of each other with a short gap. Stick the stack of pipe cleaners on the yellow paper. - Use a pen of the same colour as the pipe cleaner and draw few dots around the stack of pipe cleaners. 9) Label your cell or make a key to show different parts of the cell. 10) Then write down the jobs of the different parts of the cell on your model. Make a plant cell model 1) On your sheet of paper, draw the cell membrane of the plant cell. 2) The blue paper represents the cytoplasm. Cut the blue paper in the shape of your cell and glue it. 3) Straws represent the cell wall. Cut the straws to the right size and stick them around the cell membrane. 4) To make the nucleus, choose some coloured paper and cut a round circle. Stick it on top of the blue paper. 5) To make the chloroplasts, cut 5 green dots out of the green paper and stick them on top of your blue paper in the right place.

6) To make the vacuole, cut some white paper in the shape of the vacuole and stick it on the blue paper. 7) Add ALL THE OTHER CELL ORGANELLS as mentioned in the animal cell 2-D model. 8) Label your cell and then write down the jobs of the different parts of the cell on your model.
