Directed Reading for Content Mastery (in Spanish): A Spanish version of the DirectedReading for Content Mastery is provided for those Spanish-speaking students who are learning English.
Reinforcement: These worksheets provide an additional resource for reviewing the con-cepts of the chapter. There is one worksheet for each section, or lesson, of the chapter.The Reinforcement worksheets are designed to focus primarily on science content and lesson vocabulary, although knowledge of the section vocabulary supports understanding ofthe content. The worksheets are designed for the full range of students; however, they willbe more challenging for your lower-ability students. Answers are provided in the TeacherGuide and Answers section.
Enrichment: These worksheets are directed toward above-average students and allow themto explore further the information and concepts introduced in the section. A variety offormats are used for these worksheets: readings to analyze; problems to solve; diagrams to examine and analyze; or a simple activity or lab which students can complete in the classroom or at home. Answers are provided in the Teacher Guide and Answers section.
Note-taking Worksheet: The Note-taking Worksheet mirrors the content contained in theteacher version—Content Outline for Teaching. They can be used to allow students to takenotes during class, as an additional review of the material in the chapter, or as study notesfor students who have been absent.
AssessmentChapter Review: These worksheets prepare students for the chapter test. TheChapter Review worksheets cover all major vocabulary, concepts, and objectives
of the chapter. The first part is a vocabulary review and the second part is a concept review.Answers and objective correlations are provided in the Teacher Guide and Answers section.
Chapter Test: The Chapter Test requires students to use process skills and understand content.Although all questions involve memory to some degree, you will find that your students willneed to discover relationships among facts and concepts in some questions, and to use higherlevels of critical thinking to apply concepts in other questions. Each chapter test normallyconsists of four parts: Testing Concepts measures recall and recognition of vocabulary andfacts in the chapter; Understanding Concepts requires interpreting information and morecomprehension than recognition and recall—students will interpret basic information anddemonstrate their ability to determine relationships among facts, generalizations, definitions,and skills; Applying Concepts calls for the highest level of comprehension and inference;Writing Skills requires students to define or describe concepts in multiple sentence answers.Answers and objective correlations are provided in the Teacher Guide and Answers section.
Transparency ActivitiesSection Focus Transparencies: These transparencies are designed to generate interestand focus students’ attention on the topics presented in the sections and/or to assess
prior knowledge. There is a transparency for each section, or lesson, in the Student Edition.The reproducible student masters are located in the Transparency Activities section.

ProcedurePart A—Using the Compound Light Microscope1. Study Figure 1. Identify the parts of your
microscope so that you will understand thedirections for this activity.
2. Cut out a small letter e from a magazineand place the letter on a microscope slide.WARNING: Use care when handling sharpobjects. Put a small drop of water on theletter and place a coverslip over the waterand the letter.
3. Place the slide on the microscope stage.Move the slide to center the letter e over thehole in the stage. Use the stage clips to holdthe slide in place.
4. Turn on the light if your microscope hasone. WARNING: Do not use direct sunlightas a light source. It can damage eyes. If itdoes not, adjust the mirror so that the lightis reflected through the eyepiece.
5. Look to see how the letter e is positionedon the slide before looking through theeyepiece. In the space for Figure 2a in Dataand Observations, draw the letter as yousee it without the aid of the microscope.
6. Click the low power objective lens (short-est, if more than one lens is present) intoposition. The lens should be directly overthe hole in the stage. Bring the lens close tothe slide using the coarse adjustment knob.NOTE: Be careful not to touch the slidewith the lens. This might break the lens andthe slide.
7. Look through the eyepiece of the micro-scope. Carefully bring the letter into focusby slowly turning the coarse adjustmentknob. If you cannot see the letter, movethe slide a little bit to be sure the letter isunder the lens. If your microscope hasonly one objective lens, proceed directly tostep 9; skip step 8.
8. Click the high power objective lens intoplace. If your microscope has a highpower objective, it will also have a fineadjustment knob. Look through the eye-piece again. Carefully bring the letter einto focus by slowly turning the fineadjustment knob. NOTE: Never turn the coarse adjustment knob when thehigh power objective lens is in place.
Click the low power objective lens backinto place before going on to step 9.
9. When the letter e is clearly visible, draw inFigure 2b the position of the letter as yousee it through the microscope. Next, movethe slide to the left as you look throughthe eyepiece. Note which way the letterappears to move. Move the slide forward.Note which way it appears to move now.
10. Remove the slide and clean it.
Part B—Preparing Microscope Slides1. Place a drop of water on a clean glass slide.
Put a strand of hair from your head and ahair from your forearm on the water drop.Place a coverslip over the drop of water andthe two different strands of hair.
2. Observe the hair using the procedure youused in Part A to observe the letter e.
3. In the space for Figure 3a in Data andObservations, draw the two hair strands asthey appear through the microscope. Labelthe hairs “head” and “arm.” Notice whichstrand appears thicker and show this differ-ence in your sketch.
4. Repeat Part B using a strand of nylonthread and a strand of wool thread. Drawand label the threads in Figure 3b in Dataand Observations.
Hands-On Activities
Data and ObservationsIn the spaces below, draw what you observed.
Questions and Conclusions1. Compare your drawing of the letter e without the microscope to your drawing of the letter
seen through the microscope. Describe how the microscope changes the position of the letter.
2. In what direction does the slide under the microscope appear to move when you move it to the left?
3. Describe the differences in thickness you observed between arm hair and head hair.
4. Describe the differences you observed between wool thread and nylon thread.
5. What is the total magnification of your microscope? (Multiply the magnification of the eye-piece lens by the magnification of the objective lens. These numbers are printed on the lenses.)
6. Describe how you would correctly prepare a microscope slide of an insect wing for viewingunder the microscope.
7. What precautions must be taken when using the high power lens?Ha
If you were asked how a tree, a fly, and you are alike, you might answer, “We are all alive.” If youcould examine each under a microscope, you might answer, “We all contain cells.” One veryimportant similarity among all living things is that each is made of very small units called cells.
StrategyYou will prepare living things for microscopic viewing.You will see that each living thing is made of cells and be able to name the parts of a cell.You will compare plant cells to animal cells.

It’s hard to believe, but there was a time when we didn’t know anythingabout cell structure. In fact, the word cell (from the Latin word for chamber,cello) wasn’t used as a biological term until 1665. That’s when Robert Hooke,an English-born scientist, looked at a thin slice of a cork plant under a com-pound microscope he had built himself. Hooke noticed small holes sur-rounded by walls and named these tiny pores cells. After that, scientistsbelieved cells were found only in plants. But in 1839, Matthias Schleiden andTheodor Schwann, both German scientists, shared their scientific findings withone another. Schleiden had been studying plant cells and Schwann had beenstudying animal structures. Together, they compared plant and animal struc-tures and found that the structures were very similar—too similar to be acci-dental. They concluded that cells are the basic building blocks for both plantsand animals. In 1858, Rudolf Virchow took Schleiden’s and Schwann’s theoryand stated it simply: all cells come from other cells. This remains known as thecell theory.
Throughout the mid-1800s and into the 1900s, scientists continued to dis-cover more and more about cells thanks in part to Gregor Mendel’s study ofgenetics, Friedrich Miescher’s discovery of nuclein (which later became knownas DNA), and James Watson’s findings about DNA’s structure. Although manyamazing discoveries have happened in recent years, including genetic engineer-ing and gene therapy, all of it is because of the work of those early cell explorers.

1. How important was Hooke’s homemade microscope to the discovery of the plant cell? Explain.
2. Restate the cell theory in your own words.
3. Why do you think it took almost 200 years for scientists to formulate the cell theory?
There are many different kinds of micro-scopes. A magnifying glass is a simple micro-scope. The term microscope commonly refers to acompound light microscope. These microscopesare called compound because they are made oftwo sets of glass lenses in a tube or tubes.
The total magnifying power of a compoundlight microscope is the product of the magni-fying power of the lens in the eyepiece and themagnifying power of the lens in the objective.Most compound light microscopes can mag-nify a specimen up to 1,000 times its real size.
Microscopes allow you to see fine details.Spaces between objects that are closertogether than 0.1 mm can be seen. The abilityof a microscope to separate very small dis-tances is called resolving power. If the resolv-ing power of the lens is not good, the imagewill appear blurred.
When you look into the eyepiece of amicroscope, the circular area you see is thefield of view. When a ruler is placed across theopening on the stage, the field of view can bemeasured in millimeters.

A Factory AnalogyTransparency Teaching Tips■ The concept presented here is cell structure. Ask
students to name the cell parts which correspond tothe factory’s painted exterior walls, interior, powersource, storage barrels, and front office (cell mem-
brane or cell wall; cytoplasm; mitochondria; vesi-cles; and nucleus).
■ Draw a simple cell on the board; label and thenexplain each cell part.
Content Background■ The human body contains more than 10 trillion
cells, each around .0025 centimeters in diameter(400 per centimeter).
■ The size of a many-celled organism depends noton the size of its cells, but on the number of cellspresent.
Answers to Student Worksheet1. The control center is like the nucleus.2. The factory’s generator (source of power) is simi-
lar to the mitochondria.3. They store materials made in the factory for
removal and transport on the river.

At Home in the SaltTransparency Teaching Tips
■ This transparency introduces cells and micro-scopes. Point out that the bacteria shown isincredibly small, so the picture was taken with ascanning electron microscope. The microscopeuses a beam of electrons to scan an object’s sur-face and create an image of the surface details.
■ Explain that all cells process energy and have envi-ronmental parameters in which they thrive. Thebacteria pictured is an extremophile, a microbethat exists under conditions that would be lethalto most organisms. Ask the students to describethe environmental extremes of the Dead Sea(extreme salinity).
■ The extremophile living in the Dead Sea is ahalophile, a salt-loving microbe (in this caseHaloferax mediteranei). Microbes like this are theonly living things in the Dead Sea. This kind ofbacteria is not pathogenic to humans.
Content Background■ The French physicist Louis de Broglie suggested
the idea for the electron microscope in 1924. Thefirst true electron microscope was built in 1933.
■ The Dead Sea has large amounts of salt, bromine,and various chlorides. The River Jordan flows intothe Dead Sea, mixing fresh water with the saltwater. The high heat of the region, however,quickly causes the water to evaporate, leavingbehind the salt. Under cooler conditions, theDead Sea would gradually lose its high salinity.
■ The region receives less than 100 millimeters (fourinches) of annual rainfall.
■ The Dead Sea has a number of health resorts.Many people believe that a bath in the sea’s min-eral water is conducive to good health. Companiescollect and sell the salt as well as various Dead Seasalt-related health products.
■ The Dead Sea is located between Jordan andIsrael, and part of it belongs to each country. InArabic, its name is pronounced AL-BAHR AL-MAYYIT (“Dead Sea”), and in Hebrew it is YAMHA-MELAH (“Salt Sea”).
Answers to Student Worksheet1. There is no life visible to the naked eye.2. A microscope is needed.3. The bacteria are single-celled organisms that do
not have nuclei. This makes them simple livingthings. However, answers may vary depending onstudents’ understanding of simple and complex.
Section Focus Transparency 3 (page 46)
Thanks for Sharing!Transparency Teaching Tips■ You may use this transparency to introduce viruses.
Explain that viruses are particles that infect hostcells. One-tenth the size of bacteria, viruses canonly be seen by an electron microscope.
■ Point out that viruses cannot reproduce. Virusescan multiply, or replicate, inside a host cell—usingthe cell’s structures. Many viruses, particularlyinfluenza and cold strains, are transmitted throughcoughing, sneezing, and direct contact with handsthat have touched the nose or mouth.
■ Have students discuss the ease with which virusescan be transmitted within a closed environment,such as a classroom.
Content Background■ The common cold encompasses five different
families and more than one hundred differentstrains of viruses, none of which provides immu-nity for the other varieties.
■ A virus may be active or latent (attached to a cell,but not active). When active, viruses can destroythe host cell.
■ Some viruses, such as yellow fever, are spread byinsect bites.
■ Virus is from the Latin word meaning “poison.”
Answers to Student Worksheet1. Answers will vary. Possibilities include tired, con-
gested, achy, etc.2. You can cover your mouth when you cough, your
nose when you sneeze, and wash your hands aftereither.
Teaching Transparency (Page 47)
Animal and Plant Cells
Section 1Transparency Teaching Tips■ Many students think of cells as two-dimensional
objects. Impress upon them that all cells and cellorganelles are three-dimensional.
■ Point out that cells come in many different shapesand sizes. Also explain that every cell does not con-tain every organelle. For example, human red bloodcells do not have a nucleus when they are mature.
Reteaching Suggestion■ Have students imagine that the classroom is a
giant cell. Have them use common objects toidentify organelles and explain where they wouldbe placed in the room. Example: desks could bemitochondria, pencil erasers ribosomes, and theair cytoplasm
ExtensionsChallenge: Cover the labels on the transparencyand have students identify the organelles.Enrichment: Have students describe commonobjects that have similar functions to theorganelles. Example: the nucleus may be thoughtof as a computer that stores and uses information.
Answers to Student Worksheet1. Rough endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi complex,
2. Plant and animal cells both have a nucleus with amembrane around it.
3. cell wall and chloroplast4. The plant vacuoles are much larger than the ani-
mal vacuoles.5. A cell containing many chloroplasts would carry
on large amounts of photosynthesis to make foodfor the plant.
6. The cell membrane is made up of a double layerof fats with some proteins scattered through it.
7. ribosomes8. Mitochondria provide the energy necessary for
movement.
