| Term | Definition |
| Prokaryotic cells | bacteria, do not have a nucleus |
| Eukaryotic cells | protist, plant, animal;
have a nucleus |
| Cell membrane | control what enters and leaves the cell |
| Cytoplasm | gel-like fluid found inside
the cell. |
| Cytoplasm | made mostly of water |
| Nucleus | the control center of the cell because it has DNA |
| Mitochondrion (pl. mitochondria) | Produces energy for the cell. Power house |
| Mitochondrion | Produces energy for the cell by the process of cellular respiration |
| Vacuoles | Temporary storage centers in the cell. |
| Lysosomes | organelles that digest food,
worn out organelles |
| Cell wall | provides shape
and support for PLANT cells. |
| Chloroplast | produce(make)food for plants by the process of photosynthesis. |
| Chlorophyll | green pigment in plants that gives them green color. |
| What makes plant and animal cells ?different? | Plant cells are different from animal cells because plant cells have cell walls and chloroplasts. |
| The Cell theory states | *Cells are the basic unit of structure and function in all living things.
* All organisms are made of one or more cells
*Cells come from other existing cells |
| cellular respiration | mitochondria |
| The cell theory states | that cells come only form other existing cells |
| respiration | uses oxygen and glucose(sugar) |
| respiration | produces(makes) energy,carbon dioxide and water |
| photosynthesis | uses sunlight energy,carbon dioxide and water |
| photosynthesis | produces(makes) oxygen and glucose(sugar) |
| respiration(cellular) | takes place in mitochondrion |
| photosynthesis | takes place in chloroplast |
| The cell theory states | that every organism is made up of one or more cells. |
