    This document provides an introduction to a learning module on general biology for high school students. It discusses the development of the cell theory over time based on discoveries made using early microscopes. Key figures mentioned include Anton van Leeuwenhoek, Robert Hooke, Matthias Schleiden, Theodor Schwann, and Rudolf Virchow. The cell theory states that all living things are made of cells, cells are the basic unit of structure and function, and new cells are produced from existing cells. The module will involve students explaining the cell theory, describing cell structures and functions, and tracing the historical development of ideas about cells.

    LEARNING MODULE in GENERAL BIOLOGY 1


    (S.Y 2020 - 2021)

    Name:
    Solano, Krisne Shaine I.

    INTRODUCTION to GENERAL BIOLOGY

    I. Content Standard:
    The learners demonstrate an understanding of cell theory and cell structure and functions.

    II. Learning Competency:


    At the end of the activity, the students will be able to:
    a. explain the postulates of the cell theory. (​STEM_BIO11/12-Ia-c-1​); and
    b. describe the structure and function of major and subcellular organelles
    (​STEM_BIO11/12-Ia-c-2​)

    III. Objectives
    a. ​trace the development of the cell theory
    b. ​explain the postulates of the cell theory

    IV. Time Frame: ​4 meetings

    V. Introduction

    Our body is made up of cells. Each of which is about five thousandth of a millimeter. It is too
    small to be seen by the naked eye yet it contains practically all the information about you: your eye
    color, blood type, sex, etc.
    The invention of the microscope made possible the discovery of cells. The first lenses were
    used in Europe in the late 1500s by merchants who needed to determine the quality of cloth through
    the quality of thread and the precision of the weave. From these simple lenses, combination of lenses
    was put together.
    In the late 1600s, Dutch businessman Anton van Leeuwenhoek became one of the first people
    to use a microscope to study nature. Using only a single powerful lens, van Leeuwenhoek crafted
    instruments that could produce magnified images of very small objects. His simple microscope
    enabled him to see things no one had ever seen before. He was the first person to see tiny living
    organisms in a drop of water.
    In 1665, English physicist Robert Hooke used of the first light microscopes to look at thin slices
    of plant tissues. One of these, a slice of cork, especially caught his eye. Under the microscope, cork
    seemed to be made of thousands of tiny chambers. Hooke called this chambers “cells” because they
    reminded him of a monastery’s tiny rooms, which were also known as cells.
    VI. Activity 1

    Directions: Look for the following hidden words in the box. They are arranged horizontally or vertically
    Organization Adaptability
    Levels Growth Development
    Reproduction Homeostasis
    Movement Metabolism
    Pick four words from the list and define them using your own words.
    ● METABOLISM- converts food and drinks to energy.
    ● GROWTH DEVELOPMENT- physical development of a person in terms of size.
    ● ORGANIZATION- group
    ● ADAPTABILITY- ability to adjust in a certain surrounding.

    VII. Activity 2

    Directions: Observe the pictures below. Cut and identify the different levels of organization
    from the simplest to the complex then describe each.

    Questions:

    1. Based from your diagram, what is the simplest in the level of organization? Why?
    CELLS, BECAUSE OF IT BEING THE BASIC BUILDING BLOCK OF ALL LIVING
    THINGS. 2. What is the most complex? Why?
    BIOSPHERE, BECAUSE ALL LIVING THINGS EXIST HERE.

    VIII. Activity 3
    Consider the timeline below:
    Questions:
    1. What three statements describe the cell theory?
    ○ CELLS ARE BORN FROM EXISTING CELLS
    ○ ALL LIVING THINGS ARE MADE UP OF CELLS
    ○ TINY LIVING MICROORGANISM
    2. When Hooke first used the term cell, did he intend to have it apply to living material? Explain
    your answer.
    ○ HOOKE COINED THE TERM CELL IN THE YEAR 1665, HE DID NOT INTEND TO
    HAVE IT APPLY TO LIVING MATERIALS BECAUSE IT WAS APPROXIMATELY
    200 YEARS BEFORE THE TERM 'CELL' TOOK ITS MEANING.
    3. What do you think were the evidences when Virchow postulated that all new cells arise from
    existing cells?
    ○ ​VIRCHOW BELIEVED THAT DISEASES RESULT FROM CHANGES IN SPECIFIC
    GROUPS OF CELLS. THUS PUBLISH THE IDEA THAT 'CELLS ARISE FROM EXISTI
    NG​ ​CELLS'.
    4. How did Virchow’s idea contributed to the formation of the cell theory?
    ○ ​BY EXAMINING CELLS FOR CERTAIN CHANGES OR ALTERATIONS, DOCTORS
    CAN​ ​MORE PRECISELY IDENTIFY AND DIAGNOSE A DISEASE.
    IX. Generalization

    In 1838, German botanist Matthias Schleiden concluded that all plants are made of cells. The
    next year, another German scientist, Theodor Schwann, concluded that animals are also made up of
    cells. Rudolf Virchow, a German physician, studied cell reproduction. In 1855, he summarized years
    of research by stating, “Where a cell exists, there must have been a preexisting cell.”
    The discoveries of these are summarized in the cell theory, one of the fundamental concepts of
    biology. The cell theory states the following:
    a. All living things are composed of cells.
    b. Cells are the basic units of structure and function in living things.
    c. New cells are produced from existing cells.
