B1 Flashcards
Nucleus
Contains genetic material that controls activities in cell
Cytoplasm
Where most of the chemical rections happen
Cell membrane
Controls what goes in and out of the cell
Mitochondria
Where aerobic reactions take place
Ribsomes
Where proteins are made
Cell wall
PO- Supports the cell
Permanent vacuole
PO- Contains cell sap
Chloroplasts
PO- Where photosynthesis occurs
Prokaryotic Cells
Small, simple cells- bacteria
Eukaryotic Cells
Complex cells-plant and animal cells
Light Microscopes
Uses light and lenses to produce an image of individual cells an large subcellular structures
Electron Microscopes
Uses electrons to produce images, higher resolution and magnification than light microscopes, and can see internal structures of mitochondria
Magnification
Image size/real size
Sperm Cell
Reproduction, long tail, streamlined head, lots of mitochondria for energy and enzymes to break to digest egg cell membrane
Root Hair Cell
Absorbing water+minerals, large surface area
