Structure and Function of Cells
2.0 Recognize that all organisms are composed of cells, and that many organisms are
single-celled (unicellular), e.g., bacteria, yeast. In these single-celled
organisms, one cell must carry out all of the basic functions of life.
3.0 Compare and contrast plant and animal cells, including major organelles (cell
membrane, cell wall, nucleus, cytoplasm, chloroplast, mitochondria, vacuoles).
4.0 Recognize that within cells, many of the basic functions of organisms (e.g.,
extracting energy from food and getting rid of waste) are carried out. The
way in which cells function is similar in all living organisms.

You can tell it's a cell by the way it looks
When it's under a microscope or in a book
It may be an animal or a plant it's true
But I know it's a cell, cause I see all the clues
Chorus:
You can tell
You can tell it's a cell
Yeah, you can tell
You can tell it's a cell
Now you and I've got a brain, it helps us do what we do
It helps with walkin' and talkin' and eatin' our food
And cells need one too, to keep 'em stayin' alive
It's called a NUCLEUS and floats around inside
Chorus
Well CYTOPLASM is that jelly-like goo
That oozes round inside a cell, yeah, it's in you too!
But if there wasn't something there called the
CELL MEMBRANE
There'd be cytoplasm everywhere, we'd really complain!
Chorus
Now plant cells are unique, they're really something to see
Yeah they've got a CELL WALL to make 'em stronger, you see
They've got CHLOROPHYLL and CHLOROPLASTS on their list
And they make their own food by PHOTOSYNTHESIS
Chorus
Now cells are really small, yeah, they're hard to see
But look on down through a microscope there they'll be
And you and I are made of cells and so are birds and bees
Just like apples and bananas and the leaves on the trees
Chorus
We came to school this year,
To learn about the cell,
We learned the names of parts,
Which we call organelles.
Our thanks to Robert Hooke,
Who looked into his scope,
He saw dead cork cell walls and
Now cytology is no joke.
CHORUS:
Oh, organelles, nucleolus, mitochondria,
Endoplasmic reticulum and golgi apparatus,
Nucleus, cytoplasm, cell membrane with pores,
Ribosomes, chromatin, and many vacuoles.
Inside every single cell,
You'll find all of these parts,
They do many different jobs,
They even make up our heart.
All cells come from other cells,
All living things do too,
We hope you now can name the
Organelles inside of you!!
