Cells

Animal and Plant Cells

What is an Organelle? The organelle are the smaller parts of the cell that have specific functions.
What Organelles are inside of an Animal Cell Cell membrane, Cytoplasm, Nucleus, Mitochondria, Ribosomes, Endoplasmic reticulum, Vacuole.
What is the Cell Membrane? It's the skin that holds the cell together and it controls what comes in and out of the cell.
What is Cytoplasm? Its a jelly-like substance that supports the organelles.
What is the Nucleus? It's the control centre of the cell. It controls all chemical reactions and how the cell develops and reproduces. It also holds DNA.
What is the DNA in the Nucleus? The DNA contains the instructions for every job the cells do.
What is Mitochondria? Makes energy from the food, it's made by cellular respiration. Different cells have difference amount depending on their energy needs.
What are Ribosomes? They produce proteins that the body needs for growth and repair. Proteins are made form smaller building blocks called Amino Acids-ribosomes put these together to make proteins.
What is Endoplasmic Reticulum? Forms pathways to allow substances to move easily around the cell. There can be Smooth and Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum. Smooth has no ribosomes attached while Rough does.
What is a Vacuole? Little sacks that may contain water or chemicals that are being moved around the cell. Animal cells have smaller vacuoles than cell pants. Animal Cells may have several vacuoles.
What two organelles do Plant Cells have that Animal Cells don't? Cell wall, Chloroplasts
What is a Cell Wall? It lies outside the cell membrane. It helps keep the plants shape and helps it stay upright. It acts like a skeleton for the cell.
What are Chloroplasts? The site of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the way a plant call makes food for itself. It contains a green pigment called chlorophyll.
What does the Vacuole do in a Plant Cell? Contains sap and stores water, nutrients and waste. They are much bigger Rin a plant cell than an animal cell. When it is full it pushes against the cell wall making the cell feel rigid. (Storage Containers of the cell)
What does CERVMNC stand for? Cell membrane Endoplasmic reticulum Ribosomes Vacuole Mitochondria Nucleus Cytoplasm
