  1. Journal Question: 19 Nov 2012 • Please complete this chart and question on a blank notecard. • How are a Cell Wall and a Cell Membrane DIFFERENT from each other?

  2. Specialized Cells Did you know…cells have jobs too?!?!

  3. Christian Ponder • Position: Quarterback • Job Description: calls the plays and hands off/passes the ball to teammates

  4. Percy Harvin • Position: Wide Receiver • Job Description: catches passes and runs with the ball.

  5. Adrian Peterson • Position: Running Back • Job Description: takes handoffs and runs with the ball.

  6. Jared Allen • Position: Defensive End • Job Description: sack the QB

  7. O-Line • Position: Offensive Line • Job Description: protects the QB

  8. Ryan Longwell • Position: Kicker • Job Description: kicks field goals

  9. So what…? Do all of these players have the same purpose??? NO! and neither do cells. Cells are specialized like players on a football team with specific functions or jobs.

  10. Question? Can you think of cells that we have studied in class with a special purpose? Here are some HINTS

  11. Structure and Function of a Cell • The structure of a cell (what’s inside or how it is shaped) can tell us a lot about what the function or job of that cell is. • Just like the players on the football team, a wide receiver is going to have a very different body type from an offensive lineman.

  12. Now it is your turn to design a specialized cell… • Design a cell that would fit the functions listed below. Consider the following: • How does the way it looks or what it contains help it to fulfill its job? Job Description: • Roams the body looking for foreign invaders • Attacks/engulfs foreign invaders it meets • Digests and destroys invaders that it engulfs

  13. Macrophages (a kind of white-blood cell and part of your immune system)

  14. Some Examples of Specialized Cells • What kind of cells are these? • Red blood cells • What is its function/job? • Carries oxygen around the body • Why do you think it looks the way it does? (How does it’s shape relate to it’s job?)

  15. Some Examples of Specialized Cells • What kind of cell is it? A nerve cell • What is its function/job? Sends signals/impulses around the body • Why do you think it looks the way it does? (How does it’s shape relate to it’s job?)

  16. Some Examples of Specialized Cells • What kind of cells are these? • Skin cells • What is its function/job? • Serves as protection for internal organs and structures • Why do you think it looks the way it does? (How does it’s shape relate to it’s job?)

  17. Exit Slip Do you agree or disagree with the following statement: All cells look and function the same. Explain with EVIDENCE to support your answer why you agree or disagree with the statement. Come up with one more specialized cell and describe its function?
