Parts & Jobs of Plant & Animal Cells
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What is a cell wall and what does it do? | A cell wall is a rigid layer of non-living material that surrounds the cell. It also protects the cell and supports it. |
| What is a cell membrane and what does it do? | The cell membrane is a barrier just inside the cell wall, and it separates the cell from it's environment. It also controls what comes into the cell and what goes out. |
| What is a nucleus and what is it's function? | The nucleus is like the brain of a cell, every cell has them, and it controls all of the cell's activities. |
| What is the cytoplasm and what is it's function? | The cytoplasm is a gel-like fluid and many other organelles can be found inside the cytoplasm. |
| What is a mitochondria and what does it do? | They are rod shaped organelles that produce energy for the cell. |
| What is the endoplasmic reticulum and what does it do? | It is a maze of passageways that carry proteins and other materials from one part of the cell to another. |
| What is a ribosome and what does it do? | Ribosomes are small, grainlike bodies that either are attached to parts of the endoplasmic reticulum or float in the cytoplasm. Ribosomes produce proteins. |
| What is a golgi body and what does it do? | Golgi bodies look like flattened sacs and tubes, or like ribbons of spaghetti. Like a mail room, golgi bodies receive newly formed materials and proteins an from the endoplasmic reticulum and distribute them to other parts of the cell. |
| What is a chloroplast and what is it's function? | They are organelles only found in plant cells and they capture sunlight and use it to make food for the cell. |
| What is a vacoule and what does it do? | The vacoule is found in the cytoplasm. The vacoule is a storage area for the cell. |
| What are lysomes and what is their function? | Lysomes are small round structures that contain chemicals that breaks down certain materials in the cell. |
