3 Concept 1. Activities and Answer Keys CONCEPT 1 Activities and Answer Keys Activity 1-1: Why Are Cells Small? PLAN Summary Students explore a model cell having the shape of a cube (cuboidal), such as some of the cells in the human throat (trachea) and kidney (the nephrons). They investigate the change in cell efficiency with increasing size, focusing on the relationship between surface area and volume. Students use two-dimensional drawings, a threedimensional model, and mathematical calculations to make these comparisons. Finally, they relate their explorations of the surface area/volume ratio in the model cell to the importance of the microscopic size of human cells in the body. Objectives Students: construct paper models in the shape of cubes to represent cells. investigate the surface area-to-volume ratios of model, cube-shaped cells. explain the relationship between surface area and volume of a cube as its size changes. explain the importance of the microscopic size of cells in the body. Student Materials Resource Activity Report Plain paper for constructing a model of a cube Scissors Metric ruler Clear tape Teacher Materials Activity Report Answer Key Demonstration cube models, 1 cm, 2 cm, 4 cm, and 8 cm on an edge Advance Preparation Gather student materials. Prepare demonstration cube models, 1 cm, 2 cm, 4 cm, and 8 cm on an edge. Models can be constructed from paper, as in the student activity procedure. More durable models can be cut from wood or made from modeling clay. Consider planning this activity with the math teacher. Estimated Time One to two periods Interdisciplinary Connections Math Complete math calculations and graphing on changes in surface area and volume. 1

4 Art Use cube shapes of varying sizes to create a painting, drawing, or collage showing relationships and perspectives of cube comparisons. Prerequisites and Background Information Students need basic math skills of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. They also need to be familiar with metric units for measuring area and volume. IMPLEMENT Introduce Activity 1-1 by reviewing the formula and calculations for surface area and volume of a cube, and how to calculate the surface area to volume ratio. Helpful Hints Calculator use is optional. Use metric graph paper. Students can build additional models of different sizes for comparison. Steps 1-3 Show students sample models. Have students verify the formula for surface area and volume of a cube by counting the squares in the twodimensional (2-D) cube patterns. Have students graph the relationship between surface area and volume for each cube. These graphs can be done separately or superimposed. ASSESS Use the completion of the activity and the written answers on the Activity Report to assess if students can construct paper models in the shape of cubes to represent cells. explain the changes in the surface area-to-volume ratios as the cube size increases. explain the importance of small size to the efficiency of the cell. Activity 1-1: Why Are Cells Small? Activity Report Answer Key Please send an to teachers- Sample answers to these questions will be provided upon request. requests@ck12.org to request sample answers.
