Cell Wall
|
only in plant cells; made of cellulose stiff material. Allows for entrance into the cell/exit out of the cell. Gives protection and support to plant cells.
|
|
Cell Membrane
|
Found in all cells. Gives it shape, allows for entrance and exit in the cell. Also protects from invaders. Regulates the movement of materials into and out of the cell.
|
|
Cytoplasm
|
Jelly-like substance in a cell, allows for movement within the cell.
|
|
Nucleus
|
Control center of the cell, regulates cell activities.
|
|
Nuclear Membrane
|
Similiar to cell membrane gives shape to nucleus allows for entrance/esit into the Nucleus.
|
|
Chromosomes
|
Inside the nucleus responsible for reproduction of a cell.
|
|
Nucleolus
|
Small Nucleus inside the nucleus, not sure what it does but evidence suggest it is responsible for ribosomes production.
|
|
Endoplasmic Reticulum
|
Responsible for transporting "stuff" within the cell, almost like tubes, tunnels.
|
|
Ribosomes
|
Produce proteins, small grainlike in shape.
|
|
Mitochondria
|
Produces Energy for the cell.
|
|
Vacuoles
|
Storage areas in plants primarily WATER STORAGE.
|
|
Lyposome
|
only animal cell part, responsible for recycle waste/broken parts - contains digestive enzymes.
|
|
Chloroplasts
|
Formed only in plants, takes Sun's energy and converts it to sugar. "Energy"
|
|
Metabolism
|
SUM total of chemical activities in a cell (organism)(activities) respiration, digestion, excretion, ingestion, life span (grow), reproduction.
|
|
Respiration
|
Process where energy sources are broken down to release energy, (usually oxygen).
|
|
A plant cell has a CELL WALL and CHLOROPLASTS.
|
AN ANIMAL CELL does NOT have a cell wall or chloroplasts.
