Learning about the characteristics of life was hard because there were so many different aspects to consider and it was sometimes difficult to differentiate between them. It is challenging to understand the functions of organelles because they are so small and complex, and it can be hard to visualize how they work together within a cell. One way to compare plant and animal cells is by looking at their structures and identifying the specific organelles that are unique to each type. In order to remember definitions of vocabulary words in this unit, one strategy I used was creating flashcards and quizzing myself regularly. If I am not sure how to figure out why cells of multicellular organisms are specialized, one strategy I can use is researching and reading more about the specific functions and adaptations of different cell types.
