Interact with a plant cell to test your knowledge of the organelles.
- To begin this interaction click the link below and wait for the game window to open up
- Once open, click on the Plant Cell link in green letters
- The interactive cell will appear on the screen, click/touch the organelles listed below the cell to learn what each organelle of the cell looks like as well as what each organelles functions is
- Make a mental note of the difference in the Plant and Animal Cell diagrams: What organelles are found in a Plant Cell that aren’t located in an Animal Cell? Why are these particle organelles only located in the Plant Cell?
- Go through each organelle to gain a better understanding on the Plant Cell and how it functions once all have been completed exit window and return to StepStone
