Living things are made of cells. First of all. When we investigated our cheek cells with 400x magnification, we found that it represented animal cell from the blob-shaped figure it made.
We can also see that it has a nucleus and cell membrane. We know this cell is from a living thing because it came from our cheek cells. Secondly, we observed a plant and found its cells. It had a more fixed shape than our first animal cell, it was shaped like a box. We found the plant cell’s cell wall/membrane and its chloroplasts. Since the plant is a living thing, and we know cells make up plants too. This is more evidence to show that living things are made of cells.
Lastly, "Multicellular organisms have different types of cells that make up their body parts and help the organisms meet their needs. Roots are made of root cells, which are different from leaf cells. Muscle cells have special parts that allow them to move. In a multicellular organism, many cells work together to carry out the basic activities of life." Link^
From this we know that living things are made of cells, but different living organisms need different have different kinds of cells. Therefore, All living things are made of cells.

There are three types of cells; plant, animal, and bacteria. Initially, in class I observed a human cheek cell, under 400x magnification we could see that this cell had a nucleus and a cell membrane and was a blob-shaped figure. This shows us that this is an animal cell because of its shape, and that it came from our cheeks by rubbing it with a toothpick and observing it under a microscope. Secondly, we also observed a plant during class. We were able to find cells, but it was different from our cheek cells. It was box-shaped and could see little dots in the cell and lines separating each plant cell from others. We know that this cell we observed is a plant cell because of its more fixed shape, and the little dots in the cell are its chloroplasts(only found in plant cells) and we could see either its cell wall or membrane. Lastly, we looked at cells in yogurts. Although we were not able to take a picture of it, we found little lines swimming around, they were small so we were not able to see any things within the cell.
This is a bacteria cell because they were moving and were small, this is an example of a unicellular cell. Therefore, plant, animal, and bacteria cells are the different types of cells.

You can distinguish the different types of cells in many ways. Initially, when we were observing the animal cell, we found that it was blob-shaped and was bigger than the other cells we observed. We also learned in class that only animal cells have lysosomes, only plant cells have cell walls that animal’s do not. From this we know that some cells have things that others do not. So from looking at what the cells have, we can tell which type of cell it is. Secondly, when looking at each of the three cells under a microscope with 400x magnification, the animal cells seem bigger than the plant cells, and the bacteria cells were smaller than the plant cells. So when distinguishing cells, the difference in sizes might help you determine which cells were which types of cells. Lastly, when observing cells under the microscope, some cell’s shapes may be different than others. The animal cells would be blob-shaped, the plant cells would be more fixed like a box, and the bacteria cells would be little lines with heads. The shapes of the cells may help you distinguish which cell types are the cells because all the different types of cells shapes’ are different from each other. Therefore, there are many ways to distinguish the different types of cells from each other.
