I chose to model an animal cell by making a cake and decorating it with candy. As you can see in the

Organelle Table below, I filled in my model key and gave you an example of one full row, you can use my

example for the first disease. You must make a table for all the organelles you choose to include in your

model. Use the table below as a framework. I covered all organelles of the cell in my example, but your

assignment only needs to cover a total of 7 organelles.

Photos of Model Remember to also include at least 2 photographs of your model. Below are some of my photographs

(including one with my displeased dog). Be sure I can see sufficient detail in the photographs. You need

to include at least 1 image of just the model and 1 image that includes yourself with the cell model. You

MUST include a picture of yourself with your model to receive credit for this project.
