Parts of a Cell and Mitosis
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Mitochondria | Supplies the cell with energy. In both plant and animal cells. |
| Ribosomes | Stores water and waste for the cell. In both plant and animal cells |
| Cytoplasm | A fluid substance that organelles move around in. In both plant and animal cells. |
| Endoplasmic Reticulum | Transport system in a cell. In both plant and animal cells. |
| Nucleus | Controls the activities of the cell. In both plant and animal cells. |
| Golgi Bodies | Packages and ships materials through the cell. In both plant and animal cells. |
| Cell Membrane | The thin, flexible envelope surrounding the cell. In both plant and animal cells. |
| Lysosomes | Involved in the digestion of materials in the cell. In both plant and animal cells |
| Vacuole | Storage for food, water and other materials. In both plant and animal cells. |
| Cell Wall | Protects the cell. Only in plant cells. |
| Chloroplasts | Where photosynthesis takes place. Only in plant cells. |
| Centrioles | Play a role in cell division. In both plant and animal cells. |
| Nucleus | Control center or “brain” of the cell. In both plant and animal cells. |
| Golgi Apparatus | Packaging and shipping station of the cell. In both plant and animal cells. |
| Interphase (step 1 of mitosis) | DNA is copied |
| Prophase (step 2 of mitosis) | chromosomes shorten |
| Metaphase (step 3 of mitosis) | sister chromatids line up |
| Anaphase (step 4 of mitosis) | sister chromatids separate |
| Telophase (step 5 of mitosis) | new nucleus forms at each end |
| cytokinesis | cell contents divided between 2 daughter cells |
| cell theory | 1) All organisms are made up of one or more cells. 2) Cells are the basic unit of structure and function in organisms. 3) All cells come from other cells. 4) All living things are made of cells |
| cellular respiration | cells use oxygen to break down sugar to release energy |
| Chromosomes | specialized cell parts (contain DNA) |
| Eukaryotic Cells | cell type of fungi, plant, and animal cells |
| Prokaryotic | cell type of bacteria (first cell type on Earth) |
| Tissue | A group of similar cells that create something with a specific function. For example: skin. |
| Organ | A group of tissues in a structure. For example: heart or kidney. |
