what organelle is only in plant cells
chloroplasts
what are characteristics of chloroplast
has a doubte membrane
•contains chlorophyll > photosynthesis
what does chlorophyll do
photosynthesis
what is the photosynthesis equation
6 CO2 + 6 H2O + sunlight > C6 H12 O6 + 6O2
what is the cytoskeleton function
maintains the cells shape / anchors organelles
what filamentous proteins is cytoskeleton made of
microfilament, microtubules and intemediate filament
what does microfilaments look like
long thin fibres
what does microtubules look like
long thin cylinders
what do intermediate filaments look like
long polypeptides that support the nuclear envelop
what is the Centrioles function
assist with the movement of materials around the cell
what do centrioles look like
Short cylinders with a 9*0 pattern of microtube tripiets
what is cilia
cilia are hairlike projections on cells for movement
where are cilia and flagella found
outside of the cell
cilia > trachea
flagella > sperm
what is flagella
flagella is a whiplike tair for movement ie. sperm
