introduction to organelles of a cell

This learning resource focuses on identifying the major organelles in plant and animal cells and explaining their primary functions. Students will learn about the roles of eight essential organelles, such as the nucleus, mitochondria, chloroplasts, and more. The material highlights the differences between plant and animal cells, including unique structures like the cell wall and chloroplasts that are found only in plants. It guides students through definitions and functions of each organelle, supplemented by matching exercises and deep dive questions to encourage critical thinking about cell biology. By the end of the lesson, students will have a clearer understanding of cell functions and the reasons behind the specific requirements for plant and animal cells.
