multi-cellular Organisms made out of many cells
Cell membrane the outer boundary of the cell that helps control the substances that enter or exit a cell
Cell wall a rigid structure that surrounds, protects and gives shape to plant cells
Chloroplast a cell part that converts light energy from the sun into energy in plants
Cytoplasm a jellylike material found between the cell membrane and the nucleus of a cell; contains most of the cell's internal parts
Nucleus the "brain" or control center of the cell that stores inherited information
Mitosis the form of cell division that produces identical copies of the parent cell. In multicellular organisms, new tissue is built through countless mitotic cell divisions

chromatin composed of long, thin strands of DNA; it contains “instructions” that control cell metabolism and heredity
Mitochondria act like a stomach for the cell; they take in nutrients, break them down and create energy for the cell
Centrioles used only for cell division
