Eukaryotic Cells Part 1: Animal Cells and Endosymbiotic Theory
Prokaryotic cells were simple enough, but eukaryotic cells are much more complex! They have so many more little features and compartments, like the deluxe model of your car. We have to learn about every single one of these organelles and...

Eukaryotic Cells Part 2: Plant Cells
It's not just animals that are made of cells, it's plants too! Plant cells are very similar to animal cells, but they have some stuff that animal cells don't, like chloroplasts, that allow for photosynthesis. Let's take a tour through a...

Understanding Common Cell Parts
This video provides an introduction to cells and their structures. It explains that cells are too small to be seen with the naked eye and that the cell membrane holds the cell together while controlling the movement of materials. It also...
