Question Answer
Nucleus directs the activity of a cell; it contains chromosomes with the DNA
Cell membrane Forms outer boundary of cell and allows only certain materials to move into or out of the cell
Cell wall Provides structure to the plant cell
cytoplasm A gel-like material inside the cell; it contains water and nutrients for the cell
Nuclear clear membrane Separates the nucleus from the cytoplasm
Endoplasmic reticulum Moves material around in the cell
Ribosomes Make protein for the cell
Golgi Body Are used for packaging and secreting of energy
Mitochondria Breakdown food and release energy to the cell
Lysosomes Are chemicals used to digest waste
Vacoules Are storage areas for the cell
Chloroplasts Contains Chlorophyll that makes food for the plant cell and is where photosynthesis happens
Eukaryotic cells - Much larger (50-300um) -Contains nucleus and organelles - Two kinds : Plant and animals
Prokaryotic -Include all bacteria - Smallest cells (10um in diameter) -No nucleus -No organelles -Unicellular
How to determine plant or animal cell - Cell wall - Large Vacoule - Contain chloroplast
What are cells measured in? Micrometres (um)
3 Basis ideas of the cell theory - All living things are made of cells -Cells are the basic building blocs of all organisims - Cells are generated from cells; That is, new cells are formed from the division of parent cells
All living things hare 7 common characteristics Movement Respiration Sensitivity Growth Reproduction Excertion Nutrition
