C. LESSON PROPER 20
mins
What are the three fundamental parts of a
cell? Sir, cytoplasm, cell membrane and nucleus.
Right, What do we mean by cytoplasm and cell
membrane?
Sir, cytoplasm is the region where the main
metabolic life activities take place.

Very good! Cytoplasm contains all the

necessary life-sustaining components.

Cytoplasm serves as the reservoir for the entry

and exit of materials in the cell.
Cell membrane serves as the outer boundary
of the cell, but what is the protective covering
of the plant cell which animal cell does’nt Sir, cell wall.
have?
Yes, cell wall is a thick, outer layer found only
in the plant cell. Imagine that the cell wall is
like the wall of our school, what is the function Sir, it serves as the boundary of our school from the
of the wall in our school? outside.
Sir, it serves as a protection for us.
Yes, what else?
Right, those are also function of cell wall and it
is also the sthrengthen element to support the
other parts of the plant cell especially the
plasma membrane. Cell wall is also the
responsible for the shape of the plant cell.

Both plant and animal cells have cell

membrane. What is the other term for cell Sir, cell membrane is also known as plasma
membrane? membrane or plasmalemma.

Very good, the modern electron microscope

shows that the cell membrane consists of a
double layer of fats or lipid with scattered
proteins. What are the three main functions of Sir, separates the contents of the cell from the
plasma membrane? external environment, regulates the passage of
materials into and out of the cell and allows
communication with other cells.

Yes, plasma membrane can be compared to

happen?

Very good, What do we call the control center

or the brain of the cell which is generally an Sir, nucleus.
oval-shaped or spherical-shaped structure?
Right, nucleus is usually located at the center.
Nucleus is like a leader in a group which is the
one who regulates and coordinates all the Sir, our principal.
activities of the cell. In our school, who is our
nucleus? Sir, President Duterte.
Very good, how about in our country, who is
the person that we can call as a nucleus?
Sir, nuclear membrane is a double membrane and it
Correct, Nucleus is filled with a semifluid has nuclear pores.
medium.
What do we mean by nuclear membrane?

Right, each membrane of nuclear membrane

is a phospholipid bilayer. Unlike the cell
membrane, it has “nuclear pores” which serve
as pathways for the exchange of materials Sir, Nucleolus is composed of ribonucleic acid (RNA)
between the nucleus and the cytoplasm. and protein molecules.
What are the composition of nucleolus?

Sir, it assembles amino acids to create proteins

Very good, nucleolus is the site where the
subunits of ribosomes are formed. What is the
function of ribosomes?
Correct, ribosomes can be compared to Sir, Carpenters.
factories where we can make products like
shoes and bags. What else can ribosomes be
compared?
Yes! Of course, carpenters can make our Chromatin, Sir.
house, schools and other buildings.
What is the last one that also found in the
nucleus?
Right! Chromatin is a tiny strands inside the Sir, the DNA and protein molecules.
nucleus that contains the instructions for
directing the cell's functions. What are those
intructions being referred to.
Yes, the word DNA stands for
deoxyribonucleic acid. During cell division, the Sir, genes.
chromatin coils and becomes condensed into
rod-shaped structures called “chromosomes”.
What do we call the bearers of hereditary
traits that found in the chromosomes? Mitochondria, Sir.
Now let’s move on to the organelles found in
the cytoplasm of the cell.
What part of the cell is also known as the
Powerhouse of eukaryotic cells?
Correct, mitochondria or mitochondrion in
plural form, are the sites of cellular Sir, the ATP.
respiration. Sir, adenosine triphosphate.
It harnness energy by breaking down food
molecules to make the main carrier of energy
in cells. What do we call that main carrier of
energy in cells?
Indeed, but what do we mean by ATP? Sir, endoplasmic reticulum.
What do we call the part of the cell which
consists of flattened sheets, sacs and tubes of
membranes that extend throughout the Sir, because it specializes in the transport of lipids
cytoplasm? and membrane proteins.
Right, but why is that endoplasmic reticulum
or the ER structurally continuous with the
nuclear membrane? Sir, the rough endoplasmic reticulum.

Very good! There are two kinds of

endoplasmic reticulum, kindly give one?
Yes, the rough endoplasmic reticulum or RER Sir, the ribosomes.
generally occurs as flattened sheets, studded
 on its outer surface with small spherical Sir, the SER has no attached ribosomes.
bodies. What do you call these small spherical
bodies?
Correct, and the other one is smooth
endoplasmic reticulum or the SER. Kindly
describe the Smooth endoplasmic reticulum? Sir, it is Camillo Golgi.
Right, the SER is usually a site for fat
metabolism and forms vesicles for
transporting large molecules to other cell
parts. Sir, Golgi bodies.
Who discovered and named the golgi
apparatus in 1898?
Very good, the Golgi apparatus is a system of
flattened, membrane-bound sacs that look like Sir, it is involved in modifying, sorting and packaging
a stack of pancakes. What is the other term of macromolecules for secretion or for delivery to other
Golgi apparatus? organelles.
Yes, the number of Golgi bodies in a cell
depends on the function and stage of
development of the cell. Sir, by forming vesicles.
What are the functions or role of Golgi
bodies?

Indeed, but how do these Golgi bodies deliver

macromolecules to other organelles? Vacuoles, Sir.
Very good, the rounded vesicles which have
been pinched off from the ends of the Sir, the vacuoles of the plant cell is bigger than in the
flattened sacs of the Golgi apparatus. animal cell.
What is the part of the cell which is
responsible for storage of water or food while
others are for excretion of waste materials.
Very good, now kindly differentiate the
vacuoles of the plant cell and animal cell.

Indeed, in plant cells, they are very large,

occupying up to 90% of the cell volume. They
function for intracellular digestion, space
filling and control of cell turgor. Aside from
the water, sugar and salts, vacuoles in plant
cells also contain pigments and toxic
molecules.
D DISCUSSING NEW CONCEPTS AND PRACTICING 3 mins
NEW SKILLS
What is the process by which plants
manufacture food by using sunlight? Sir, photosynthesis.

Very good, but what part of the plant cell do

photosynthesis take place? The chloroplasts, sir.
Right, Chloroplasts are the green-colored
plastids and that is the reason why plants are
also known as the Producer.
Are plastids found in the animal cells also? No, Sir.
Ok, how about the algae? Sir, plastids are also found in algae.
Very good, algae is one of the photosynthetic
protists that lived in aquatic environments.
Later on, we will discuss about protists and
other microorganisms.
Plastid is one of the three special organelles in
 the cytoplasm which we will discuss next
meeting.
E. DEVELOPING MASTERY (LEADS TO FORMATIVE 10mins
ASSESSMENT 3)
Now, go to your respective group and leaders,
kindly get your worksheet. This activity is what (Leaders will get their worksheet)
we call “Organelles got talent”. All you have to
do is match the function cards and memory
items by gluing them into the correct locations
in the chart. You are given 10 minutes to finish
your work. Do you understand class?
Then, you may start. Yes, Sir.
(Students will do the attached activity.)
Ok, times up. Kindly pass your paper, finished
or not finished. (Students will pass their worksheet.)
F. FINDING PRACTICAL APPLICATION OF 2mins
CONCEPTS AND SKILLS IN DAILY LIFE
Why do we need to study the cell?
Sir, because to understand how the cell maintain life.

Very good, what else in terms of medicine?

Sir, it is important for finding a new way of providing

Indeed just like the discovery of the stem cells. treatments for a number of ailments afflicting people
Stem cells are cells that have the ability to all over the world.
divide themselves indefinitely. With these
ablity they could be used to treat different
kinds of ailments like cancer.
How these parts of the cell work with each
other inorder to maintain life? Sir, they team work.
Yes, in other words they have unity.

What will happen if there is no vacoule in the

cell? Why? Sir, the cell will die because there are no storage of
food and water.
Right, each part of the cell has an important
role, even if it is small or unpleasant look. So
we must not judge by its physical appearance.
G. MAKING GENERALIZATION AND ABSTRACTION 5mins

What will happen to the plant cell if the size of

its vacoule is the same with in the animal cell? Sir, the plant cell will not be able to store large
amount of water and food which is necessary for
their growth and reproduce.

Yes, if the plant cell cannot store enough

water or food, they may not be able to grow
or reproduce by forming fruit and germinating
seeds.
Kindly differentiate the 2 types of cell which
are prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Sir, prokaryotes are unicellular while eukaryotes are
multicellular.
Right what else? Eukaryotes has nucleus and contains various
organelle while the prokaryotes has no nucleus and
they lack most of the organelles that eukaryotes
have.
