Design i) Objectives: To identify different parts of a cell To describe the structure and function of each organelles in a cell To differentiate between- Eukaryotic and Prokaryotic Cell and Plant and Animal cell ii) Summary: Cells are the basic structural and functional units of all living organisms. They come in different shapes and sizes, but their fundamental structure remains the same. Each cell is enclosed by a cell membrane, which controls the entry and exit of substances, maintaining a stable internal environment. Inside the cell, the cytoplasm holds various organelles that perform essential functions. The nucleus, often called the control center, contains genetic material (DNA) and regulates cell activities like growth, reproduction, and protein synthesis. Several organelles work together to keep the cell functioning efficiently. Mitochondria, known as the powerhouse ...
