Cell Organelle Research Worksheet (WEBQUEST)

Class, this post is for your Webquest assignment on Cell organelles, now that you've learned about the basic cell. This will be done over 2 days (you can use headphones).
Your task is to research different cell organelles and describe the function and structure of each one, draw pictures of the organelles (with labels), and identify if they belong in animal cells, plant cells, or both. Also, write an analogy/metaphor for each organelle. Focus more of the FUNCTION of the cell organelles. 

Use the following websites to help you fill in all pages of the packet. Your Textbook is also available to use, on pages 364-367. Remember, ONLY use the following websites!:
