working cell

Here is a picture of the Lysosome, Mitochondrion, Nucleus, Smooth
and rough endoplasmic reticulum.



These are the products I used to make my animal cell.
Green Beans, cereal, paper clips, pretzels, pasta, and a peach.


Another picture of the finished animal cell.



Here is a picture of me adding the Lysosomes.
Lysosomes are vesicle that digests macromolecules and
even cell parts.




Here is a picture of the Lysosomes and the Mitochondrion added.
The Mitochondrion is organelle that carries out cellular respiration,
prouducing ATP molecules.





Here is a picture of the completed animal cell. It has the cell membrane,
Cytoplasm, Lysosome, Centriole, Golgi apparatus, Nucleus, Rough
endoplasmic reticulum, Ribosome, Smooth endoplasmic reticulum, and
the Mitochondrion.
My animal cell was made out of a cantalope. Every part has a certain
function. The Centrioles are short cylinders of microtubules of unknown
function. Lysosomes is vesicle that digests macromolecules and even
cell parts. Cytoplasm is semifluid matrix outside necleus that contains
organelles. Golgi apparatus processes, packages, and secretes modified
cell products. Mitochondrion is organelle that carries out cellular
respiration producing, ATP molecules. Ribosomes are particles that
carry out protein synthesis. Smooth endoplasmic reticulum lacks
ribosomes, synthesizes lipid molecules. Rough endoplasmic reticulum
studded with ribosomes. Nucleus envelope id double membrane with
nuclear pores that encloses nucleus. Nucleolus is the region that produces
subunits of ribosomes. Chromatin duffuse threads containing DNA and
protein. A cell is the basic unit of life. All living things are made up of cells.
Nothing smaller than a cell is alive.

Tierza, I know you’ve been struggling with some computer issues, although the images for your labs all look great. You are getting the basics, but I would like to see more.
Also, you haven’t done the second compendium, ethics issue and self/unit eval. Let me know when you get those done by and I’ll consider them for credit. Let me know anything else I can help with…I know after battling through all this, you want to continue and excel in the class!

SELF/UNIT EVALUATION: I didn’t see this in your blog. Please be sure you answer these questions for an easy 5 points. Send me an e-mail when you’ve answered them.

COMPENDIUM REVIEW 1: CELLS: Most of the basics are here. Please work on organizing your review. Give me a table of contents or outline at the start. Then, develop each main point with a few simple sub-bullets or topics. Show how your graphics fit in with the topic. This is a nice start, but could use some editing and elaboration.

COMPENDIUM REVIEW 2: GENETICS: Please be sure you complete all the work. I didn’t see this second review.

MICROSCOPE LAB: This is a good baseline write-up. The image looks fine. The definitions look good. You should include a simple introduction and conclusion, following the lab write-up instructions

DRAGON GENETICS: This is a baseline write-up. The dragons should be the same with the same phenotype (look) and genes. Also, you should include a simple introduction and conclusion, following the lab write-up instructions. The definitions look good.

BUILD A CELL: The materials are beautiful as is the final result. You include all the parts of the cell, but don’t show how mitosis happens and how DNA replication and protein synthesis happens. Please read the lab project instructions carefully and ask me if you have any questions—I’ve given this baseline grade, but next time the project must be complete. Visually, it’s stunning!

ETHICAL ISSUE ESSAY: GENETIC ENGINEERING: I didn’t see this in your blog. Please be sure you this short essay for an easy 10 points. Send me an e-mail when you’ve answered them.


Please don’t forget to do your peer color group feedback on their ethical issues essays—you’ll probably find it interesting to see some other blogs also. And get started on Unit II if you haven’t already. Let me know if you have any questions or concerns about this feedback or your grades which can be seen on the YC Blackboard site.
