animal and plant cells Flashcards
animal cells: 5
nucleus
mitochondria
cytoplasm
cell membrane
ribosomes
plant cells: 7
cell wall-made of cellulose
cell membrane
ribosomes
cytoplasm
chloroplasts
mitochondria]
vacuole
nucleus:
control what happens in cells and carried genetic info
vacuole:
stores cell sap, sticky and keeps it firm and in place
mitochondria:
jelly bean structure-where respiration takes place
ribosomes
tiny round structures
new proteins synthesised-made for cells
cant see them unless with a microscope
cytoplasm:
jelly like substance where the chemical reactions take place
chloroplasts:
where cell makes its food and where photosynthesis occurs-green like substance contains chlorophyll
cell membrane:
controls what goes in and out of the cell
cell wall:
protects cell, firm, gives it support and structure
cells units for measuring:
um
how to work out length:
work out um length given in cm
work out whole cell also given
times um measurement given with the whole cell cm measurement and divide it by um length in cm
