PRE-CCLS SCIENCE
The cell membrane is a thin ,
flexible barrier around the cell.
Many cells also have a strong
layer around the cell membrane
known as the cell wall...
Some cells also have a nucleus, a large
structure that contains the cell’s genetic
material and controls the cell’s activities.
The material inside the cell’s membrane –
but not including the nucleus – is called the
cytoplasm. The cytoplasm contains many
important structures.
SHIFT 3
Staircase of
Complexity
POST-CCLS SCIENCE
Under the microscope, a cell looks a lot like a fried egg:
It has a white (the cytoplasm) that’s full of water and
proteins to keep it fed, and a yolk (the nucleus) that
holds all the genetic information that makes you you.
The cytoplasm buzzes like a New York City street. It’s
crammed full of molecules and vessels endlessly
shuttling enzymes and sugars from one part of the cell
to another, pumping water, nutrients, and oxygen in and
out of the cell. All the while, little cytoplasmic factories
work 24/7, cranking out sugars, fats, proteins, and
energy to keep the whole thing running and feed the
nucleus – the brains of the operation. Inside every
nucleus within each cell in your body, there’s an
identical copy of your entire genome. That genome tells
cells when to grow and divide and makes sure they do
their jobs, whether that’s controlling your heartbeat or
helping your brain understand the words on this page.

TEXT-BASED ANSWERS
Questions tied
directly to the
text, but extend
beyond the
literal
Students must
cite text to
support answers
Personal
opinions,
experiences,
and connections
to the text are
minimized in
favor of what
the text actually
says or doesn’t
say

Questions are
