Cell Structure & Function Project-Based Learning Activity is a project-based learning activity for high school Biology (grades 9–12) on Cell Structure & Function.

Pairs with: Cell Structure & Function Slide Show Presentation; Cell Structure & Function Guided Notes; Cell Structure & Function Lesson Quiz; Cell Structure & Function Unit Test.

Sections: Biology Project Based Learning Activities • Chapter 3; Biology Project Based Learning • Chapter 3; Project Station #1; Technical Vocabulary Matching; Learning Objective & STEM Challenge Target; Investigation Protocol & Directions; Station 1: Technical Vocabulary Term Cards (cut Out); Term #1. Sample item: “How do exosomes differ in their cellular biogenesis from apoptotic bodies or microvesicles?”

What's inside: Project Based Learning Activity (editable .pptx + PDF, 30 slides); answer key / model answers for the teacher.

Standards: HS-LS1-2 — Develop and use a model to illustrate the hierarchical organization of interacting systems that provide specific functions within multicellular organisms. HS-LS1-3 — Plan and conduct an investigation to provide evidence that feedback mechanisms maintain homeostasis.

Resource type: Project-Based Learning Activity. Format: editable Microsoft PowerPoint file plus a ready-to-print PDF.

Classroom use: Students work through the project stations over several class periods, ending with a product they present. Built for high school Biology, grades 9–12.

Format note: These files are delivered in Microsoft Office formats (Word and/or PowerPoint). If you open a worksheet that includes tables in Apple Pages or another non-Microsoft app, table formatting may not display correctly. For best results, use Microsoft Word or PowerPoint (or upload the file to Google Docs). If you run into any formatting issues, contact us and we can send a PDF version.
