Abstract

The cell, as the amazing unit of life, is the smallest structure of living which acts as a
thing alone and can carry out all the vital functions of life. The technological developments
and multidisciplinary studies provide new opportunities to understand the structure of cell
continually. According to these studies, the target is to determine the knowledge levels of
high education students on the basic part of cell and organelles as part of their drawings. The
students are asked to draw an animal cell and to state the names of the organelles with the
basic parts of cell. In this respect, it has been studied on their conceptual knowledge levels
upon cell. This study has focused on totally 286 students of 9th, 10th, 11th and 12th classes
on three different high educations in Kars, city centre , in 2014-15 Education Year.
Although the students are asked to draw an animal cell and to show the parts, they
have drawn chloroplast and cell wall which are not in animal cells and are the parts of plant
cell. This manner demonstrates that the high education students have less misconception on
subjects of animal and plant cells. As a result of surveys, in all of 9th, 10th, 11th classes, it is
obvious that they have stated the core as the basic part of cell; yet, in the 12th classes, the
students have stated the mitochondria as a cell organelle in their drawings. The cell nucleus is
the most stated cell structure respectively %82, %76,6 and %86,3 in 11th classes;
mitochondria is the most stated one in 12th classes at the rate of % 96,7 in the drawings of
the students. The cell nucleus as basic structure of cell, cytoplasm and cell membrane;
mitochondria as cell organelles, ribosome, golgi apparatus, tonoplast, endoplasmic
reticulum,lysosome and centrosome have been the parts of animal cell the students in the
study all carry out in their drawings. This matter also indicates that they clearly have learned
these structures and organelles as syllabus in science and technology lesson of high students
as well as in biology lesson of high education students as they repeat. Of all these organelles,
7
especially golgi apparatus and lysosome have been increased at the rate of %46,2 and %40
compared to previous year, they have become the best known organelles. While the nucleolus
has not been stated by the students of 9th class, RNA, chromosome, chromatin fibre and pore
have been only stated by the students of 12th class as cellular structures. 

Keywords
