4 Name Date The Human Cell The cell is the smallest entity that still retains the properties of life. A cell can survive on its own or has the potential to do so. This diagram shows an example of an animal cell. While each type of cell differs somewhat, they all share similar structures and functions. Use the terms in the word box to label the diagram. vacuole Golgi body cell membrane cytoplasm mitochondrion endoplasmic reticulum nucleus Human Body 2004 Creative Teaching Press At a Smaller Level 5

5 Name Date Types of Cells Cells differ enormously in shape, size, and activities. Yet all cells are alike in three aspects.
