Nucleus
controls the cell
Chromosomes
determines what traits a living thing will have
Cell Membrane
Controls what moves in and out of the cell
Cytoplasm
jellylike material that fills the cell
Vacuoles
stores water, food and waste
Chloroplasts
where photosynthesis happens in plants; only found in plant cells
Mitochondria
produces energy when food is broken down
Ribosomes
where protein is produced
Endoplasmic Reticulum
the transport system in the cell; connects cell membranes to nuclear membrane
Cell Wall
found in plant cells only, forms thick outer coating; supports plants structure
Lysosomes
Contains enzymes and removes waste from the cell
Golgi Apparatus
Function is to process and bundle macromolecules like proteins and lipids as they are synthesized within the cell.
The cell membrane and water are both involved in
the movement of materials into and out of the cell.
What is thread-like material in the nucleus which contains genetic material?
Chromatin
What are the 3 parts of cell theory?
1. All living organisms are composed of one or more cells.
2. The cell is the basic unit of structure and organization in organisms.
3. Cells arise from pre-existing cells.
What is an example of a prokaryote
Bacteria
A cell has a nucleus, is complex and large, and has membrane bound organelles. What type of cell is this?
Eukaryote
All eukaryotic cells have what organelle?
Mitochondria
.What is the correct order of levels of organization in an organism from left to right from small to large.
Cells ? Tissues? Organs? Organ Systems ? Organisms
What chemical in the cell allows plant cells to carry out photosynthesis?
Chlorophyll
What are the major differences between plant and animal cells?
Plant has the cell wall and chloroplasts - animal cell does not. Plant cell has 1 large vacuole
Animal cell has lysosomes - plant cell does not. Animal cell has multiple smaller vacuoles
