|
What is eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. Give examples
|
Eukaryotic - have nucleus and membrance - animal, plant, fungi, human
Prokaroytic - have none except DNA - bacteria |
|
|
Explain the nucleus and its three parts
|
Nucleus - largest organelle, directs cell activities
Nucleolus - send chemical messages to cytoplasm, manufacture of ribosome Nuclear membrane – separates material in nucleus from cytoplasm |
|
|
Explain mitochondria, cytoplasm, endoplasmic recticulim, organelle
|
Mitochondria - organelles where food is broken down and released as energy
Cytoplasm - gel like material inside cell membrane, moves in the cell and gives structure to cell ER - folded membrane which moves material around cell Organelle - samll organ |
|
|
Explain cell membrane, cell wall, lysosomes, golgi bodies, ribosomes, vacuoles
|
Cell membrane - outer boundary of cell, thing go in and out, made of double layer of fats and proteins
Cell wall - found only in plants structure outside of cell m. supports/protects plant lysosomes - organelles that contain chemicals to digest wastes and worn out parts ribosomes - makes proteins, made my nucleolus, don’t have a membrane, in cytoplasm and ER Vacuoles - storage areas that store waste, water and food |
|
|
Explain centrioles, flagella, cilia, chromatin, photosynthesis and cytoskeleton
|
centrioles - aid in cell division like euglena
flagella - long whip organelle that whips around to give cell movement cilia - cover cells with tiny hairs which sweep along to move the cell Chromatin - DNA Photosynthesis - the process which green plants change sun into food cytoskeleton - network of hollow proteins called microtubules and fiber that help the cell keep its shape |
|
|
Explain Plastids, chromoplast, leucoplast, chlorophyll and chloroplast
|
Plastids - membrane bound organelles that are found in plant cells and unicellular
Chromoplast - gives color to flowers, fruits and leaves Leucoplast - store starch/save food for plant Chloroplast - that have pigment which carries out the process of photosynthesis Chlorophyll - pigment in chloroplasts |
