Cell Structure and Function

The following links are related to the topics:
A. Compartments of the cell (cell organelles): Plants versus Animals
B. Cell Sizes
C. Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes
D. Types of cells in the human body

Standard 1c: Students know how prokaryotic cells, eukaryotic cells 
(including those from plants and animals), and viruses differ in complexity 
and general structure. 

Standard 1e: Students know the role of the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi 
apparatus in the secretion of proteins. 

*Standard 1j: Students know how eukaryotic cells are given shape and 
internal organization by a cytoskeleton or cell wall or both.
