Cell Structure Flashcards
Which cell has more factors? animal or plant?
Plant Cell
What does an animal cell use glucose for?
Energy (harnessed from photosynthesis)
What is a plant’s cell wall composed of?
Cellulose
T/F:
A cell wall is common in a plant cell, fungal cell, and bacteria cell
True
T/F:
Fungal cells and bacteria cells are also composed of cellulose
False
What does the Nucleus do?
controls cell activities
Stores genetic Info
What happens in the cytoplasm
Chemical reactions
What does the Cell Membrane do?
controls what enters and leaves the cell
What does Cell Wall do?
Gives plants their shape
What is chloroplast the site of?
Photosynthesis (making food for the cell)
What does the vacuole do?
store water and minerals to support the cell
What is mitochondrion the site of?
aerobic respiration
What are ribosomes sites of?
protien synthesis
What is a plasmid?
a small piece of circular bacterial DNA that controls characteristics that helps bacteria adapt to their environment
