__Unit 5 - Cells and Cell Transport__
__[|Unit 5 - Cells and Cell Transport.doc]__ The primary purpose of a cell is to produce proteins (long chains of amino acids). A cell needs energy to do this. We will be focusing on the functions of the cell parts that make the proteins, and the cell parts that provide the energy needed.
