Mr.

V’s 3-D Cell Model


You will create a 3-D model of a plant or animal cell
(your choice) using common materials. You will label the
structures on the model with numbers, providing a
typewritten key to identify the labels. Also on the key
you should specify the function of each organelle.

Example:

Number Organelle Function


1 Nucleus Control center of
the cell. Stores
DNA.
2 Ribosomes Puts together
proteins
ORGANELLES THAT MUST BE IN YOUR CELL MODEL:
cell membrane vacuole mitochondria
ribosomes golgi apparatus peroxisomes
nucleus smooth ER nuclear
cytoplasm rough ER membrane
nucleolus

Animal cells only: Centrioles, lysosomes (very rare in plant


cells).

Plant cells only: Cell wall, chloroplasts.

 The cell can be no smaller than 4" x 6", and no larger


than 9" x 12".
 The cell must be 3-D. Therefore, it can not be a poster or
only puffy paint.
 Do not use any type of food products with the exception
of maybe dry pasta. Your models will be on display…I
don’t want any giant killer Hilmar ants all up in my
classroom.
 Use clear drying glue. Avoid tape, pins and staples. Ideas
for materials include: yarn, beads, toothpicks, pipe
cleaners, string, straws, Styrofoam, Plexiglas, food, play-
doh... Use many types and your imagination, but be sure
it will stay together!
 You must identify all the organelles listed above for
whichever cell you choose.
 The type of cell, your name and period must be identified
somehow on the model and the key.
 DO NOT label the organelles on the model, use ID
numbers. The key will identify which organelle is
represented by each ID number.

DUE: Monday October 17TH
