Cells, Microscopes and creepy crawlies A close up on a cell
A close up on a cell • Living things are called organisms • Organisms are made up of one or more cells • Your body is made up of trillions! of cells • Cells do not have the same shape
A close up on a cell • Some organisms are made up of just one cell • They are called ‘single-celled’ or ‘uni-cellular’ Euglena Amoeba Paramecium What features can you see?
The internal structure of a cell • A cell has many parts • Not all cells contain all of these parts • These parts are called ‘organelles’ • Each cell has a different job
