Getting Into Cells

It is now time to focus our study of homeostasis to cells.

So, your homework for Wednesday is to answer two questions:
1. How do cells fulfill the 10 Characteristics of Life (MRLSTRNGER)?
2. How do cells manage homeostasis.
For this second question, you should focus on a specific kind of cell (e.g., the leaf cell of a potato plant), since all cells have different needs.

To help, you might organize yourself around these questions:
a. What is the cell you are studying?
b. What does it do?
c. Does it work with any other cells to accomplish its purpose?
d. What are the conditions in which it lives?
e. How is your cell well adapted to its environment?

Have fun!
