Plant vs. Animal Cells

Lesson Objectives: Students will learn and understand the difference between the animal and plant cell, the difference between a cell wall and cell membrane, describe the function of parts of the cells.

MS-LS1-2. Develop and use a model to describe the function of a cell as a whole and ways the parts of cells contribute to the function.
