|
Prokaryotic cells |
Unicellular organisms with no nucleus, or membrane-bound organelles |
|
|
Eukaryotic cells |
Generally multicellular organisms with a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles |
|
|
A nucleus |
Helps store genetic material |
|
|
Ribosomes |
Helps make proteins |
|
|
Robert Hooke |
First looked at dead cells. Coined the term "cell" |
|
|
Anton van Leeuenhoek |
Observed pond water, coined the term "Animalicules", and discovered protists |
|
|
Matthias Shleiden |
Made the statement that cells make up plants |
|
|
Microtubules |
"Tracks" for moving the organelles, give the cell shape |
|
|
Centriole |
Found in animal cells and most protists. Play an important role in cell division |
|
|
Cilia |
Short, numerous, hair like projections. |
|
|
Flagella |
Longer hair like projections that move with a whip like motion. Cells have 1 or fewer flagella |
|
|
Lysosomes |
Organelles that contain digestive enzymes |
|
|
Chloroplast |
Found in plant cells. Capture light and converts it to chemical energy |
|
|
Mitochondria |
Found in animal and plant cells. Transform energy for the cell. Have their own DNA |
|
|
Vacuole |
Fluid filled membrane used for temporary storage |
|
|
The cell theory |
1. Every living thing is made up of 1 or more cells 2. Cells are the basic unit of life 3. Cells are produced only from pre-existing cells |
|
|
All cells have a |
Cell/plasma membrane |
|
|
All cells |
Posses genetic material which helps the cell make proteins |
|
|
Nucleolus |
Helps make ribosomes |
|
|
Golgi apparatus |
A flattened stack of tubular membrane that packages proteins |
|
|
Rough endoplasmic reticulum |
Helps transport products to the golgi apparatus |
|
|
Smooth Endoplasmic reticulum |
Produces lipids and hormones to remove toxins from the body |
|
|
Plant cells are different from animal cells because |
Plant cells have cell walls |
|
|
Chromosomes are located in the |
Nucleus |
|
|
Plant cells have a larger |
Vacuole then animal cells |
