Description: Living things are made of building blocks called cells. Cells are not all the same shape, but all cells have a nucleus, streaming material called cytoplasm, and a membrane. In addition, plant cells have a tough outer covering, the cell wall. Living things may be one cell or many cells in size, but all living things begin life as a single cell., Discusses cells, pointing out that they are the building blocks of all living things. Shows cell slides under a microscope and distinguishes the nucleus, cytoplasm, and cell membrane of an animal cell. Notes that all living things begin as a single cell and observes the cell division of a sea urchin. Concludes with a review of the concepts presented.
