4.1.1.2 Animal and Plant Cells Flashcards
1
Q
What organelle are found in animal cells?
A
- Cytoplasm
- Nucleus
- Cell membrane
- Ribosome
- Mitochondria
2
Q
What organelle are found in plant cells?
A
- Nucleus
- Cytoplasm
- Cell membrane
- Mitochondria
- Ribosomes
- Chloroplasts
- A permanent vacuole filled with cell sap
3
Q
What is the cell wall of plant and algae cells made of and what does it do?
A
- Made of cellulose
- Strengthens the cell
4
Q
Function of Vacuole:
A
- Contains cell sap
- Helps to support the shape of the cell
- Has a jelly-like texture
5
Q
Function of Nucleus:
A
- Controls the activities of the cell
- Contains genetic material (including DNA)
- Cells would die without it as it wouldn’t be able to function
6
Q
Function of Ribosomes:
A
- Site of protein synthesis (where proteins are made)
- Cells have to build protein for the rest of the body and we take it in
7
Q
Function of Cytoplasm:
A
- Where most of the chemical reactions take place
- Jelly-like texture
8
Q
Function of Cell Membranes:
A
Controls what passes in and out of the cell
9
Q
Function of Mitochondria:
A
- Where aerobic respiration takes place to release E
- Aerobic respiration uses oxygen
10
Q
Function of Cell Wall:
A
- Maintains rigidity of the cell
- Strengthens the cell
- Made of cellulose
11
Q
What is cell sap?
A
The solution inside the vacuole stores materials such as sugars, amino acids, waste products and mineral salts
12
Q
Cell:
A
- Are the basic units of life
- Are the building blocks of all living organisms
- All living things are made of cells
13
Q
What re the life processes organisms need to stay alive
A
- Movement: can change its position
- Respiration: release energy from a ‘food’ source, requires oxygen
- Sensitivity: responds to things
- Growth: gets bigger
- Reproduction: can make copies of themselves
- Excretion: get rid of waste materials
Nutrition: consumes chemical materials as food
