    Experiment No. 3

    Uploaded by

    Cyrus Garcia
    This document describes an experiment to characterize and classify cells as either prokaryotic or eukaryotic. The experiment involves observing prepared slides of different cell types under a microscope and recording their key structures. Characteristics like cell shape, size, presence of organelles are noted for each cell type. Based on these observations, conclusions are drawn about similarities and differences between cells, as well as how this can be used to classify unknown specimens.

    EXPERIMENT NO. 3
    CHARACTERISTICS OF A CELL

    Cells are the basic units of structure and function of all living things. There are
    two major divisions into which all cells fall – prokaryotic and eukaryotic. Prokaryotic cells
    are cells that lack a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles. Bacteria and related
    microorganisms are prokaryotes. Eukaryotic cells are cells that contain a nucleus and
    membrane-bound organelles. Organisms such as animals, plants, fungi, and protists
    are all eukaryotes. In this investigation, you will observe several prepared slides to
    examine The differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. You will also use
    these differences to classify an unknown specimen.

    Analysis and Conclusions
    1. Based on your observations, do all cells have the same shape? Support your
    answer.

    2. Based on your observations, do all cells have the same size? Support your
    answer.
    3. What cell structures are common to all cells?

    4. What cell structures are found only in eukaryotic cells?

    5. Are the nuclei always found in the same place within different types of cells?
    Support your answer.
    Critical Thinking and Application

    1. Skin cells seem to fit together like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle. How is this
    arrangement of cells helpful to an organism?

    2. Why do cells have different shapes and sizes?
