      2. Nucleus
        1. Controls the cells activity
        2. Ribosomes
          1. The site of protein synthesis
          2. Mitochondria
            1. The site of aerobic repiration
            2. Cell Membrane
              1. Controls what enters and exits the cell
              2. Cell Wall
                1. Gives Shape & Structure
                2. Chloroplasts
                  1. Site of photosynthesis
                  2. Vacuole
                    1. Contains cell sap
                    2. Plasmids
                      1. Extra DNA
                    3. Transport Across The Membrane
                      1. Diffusion
                        1. Diffusion is the movement of molecules from a region of high concentration inside the cell to a region of low concentration outside traveling down a concentration, this is a passive process
                        2. Active Transport
                          1. Active transport is the movement of ions from a region of low concentration inside the cell the region of high concentration outside the cell, moving against the concentration gradient, this process requires ATP energy
                          2. Osmosis
                            1. Osmosis is the movement of water molecules form a region of high concentration inside the cell to a region of low concentration outside the cell, travelling down a concentration gradient, this is a passive process
