Meet Cellerium

 Hey guys! SuperSara here with another blog about cells. A-Tom's still really sick and doctors say he has the flu for life. But, I talked to A-Tom and he told me he has a friend named Cellerium. Cellerium is gonna be teaching all you guys about cells today, and SuperSara will go sit on the couch and watch television. Ok, here's Cellerium.

  Hey, my name is Cellerium. I am a cell scientist, and I'm going to take you guys on a journey of cells! Here we go!

Everything living thing in the world is made up of cells. Cells are very important because they keep us alive. Once you die, your cells die too. There are two basic types of cells; plant and animal.

Here are some vocabulary words:

• Nucleus:  Round and dark. Is "the brain" of the cell.

• Cytoplasm: What the nucleus floats in. Basically it's just this jelly blob that takes up most of the room in the cell.

• Cell membrane: Protects the cell. Let's good stuff in and out of the cell. Doesn't let bad stuff come in and reminds me of a castle wall.

• Mitochondria: The powerhouse of the cell. Gives the cell energy, and are rice shaped.

• Lysosomes: The cleanup crew. Lysosomes are small structures involved with the digestive system.

• Vacuole: The storage bins. They store food, water, and watse. They pump extra water out of the cell.

• Ribosomes: Small round structures in the cytoplasm that make proteins.

A Eukaryote cell, the ones that  we are made up of

Next we are going to have a video by SuperSara about cells.

Well... That's all for today! SuperSara fell asleep on the couch, but she specifically told me to tell you this: SuperSaraSuperBye!!!!
