Cell Structure and Function Review

Welcome to 8th grade science!  I hope everyone had a great first day and you are ready for day 2!  This week in science we are reviewing plant and animal cell structure and function.  This is material that you learned in 7th grade so we are not going to spend a lot of time on this topic.  We will have a quiz next week on the structure and function of the cell organelles.  Remember that understanding cell structure is essential for understanding Genetics.
