UNDERSTAND
Cell Structure and Function

What are the different cell structures

and their functions?

“The animal and plant cell”

All organisms, big or small are made up of cells. Some organisms are single-celled, composed
of only one cell. Others are multicellular, possessing many cells that work together to form an
organism. Cells are the basic unit of structure and function of all life forms. It is made up of
several structures or organelles that perform a unique function that facilitates life. The
fundamental parts of the cell are the nucleus, cytoplasm and the cell membrane.
Microscope is a tool that can help you see tiny objects and living organisms like cells. With its
help, we can see even the smallest part of the cell which are its organelles.
Studying cells help us understand how organisms function. It also helps our scientists to
identify and diagnose diseases at a cellular level therefor giving them the avenue to produce
medicines and vaccines to prolong life.

A. “The Cell as a School”
Direction: A cell is like our school. Each part of the cell (school) has responsibilities
that must be done and certain organelles (people or places) do them. Identify the
function of each part of the cell by identifying which person or place in the school that
does the same job, give the characteristic of the certain organelle (people or place) that
you considered to be doing the job as your justification. The first one has been done
for you as an example to follow.

B. Directions: Thoroughly answer the questions below. Use clear and complete
sentences.
1. Nucleus is a membrane bound organelle where the genetic material is found. DNA is
transcribed to mRNA in the nucleus but it is not the site for translation. Instead, the mRNA
moves out of the nucleus going towards the ribosome for protein synthesis.
a. How can the structure of the nucleus facilitate its delivery of its function?

b. Why can mRNA translation cannot be done inside the nucleus?

2. Most of the cell organelles are membrane-bound. The lysosome is also a membrane-
bound organelle. What do you think will happen if it’s membrane will be damaged?

REMEMBER
Key Points

 An organelle is like the internal organ of a cell. It is a membrane bound structure found
within a cell.
 The organelles are structures that has their specific function to facilitate life processes
of the cell.
 The mitochondrion, Golgi apparatus, endoplasmic reticulum, vacuole, ribosome and
lysosome are common to both plants and animal cells.
 Centrioles are only found in animal cells while cell wall and chloroplast are only found
in plant cells.
