Cell Structure Flashcards
Memorise structure and function of plant, animal, bacterial and fungal cell
What are the structural components of a plant cell
Chloroplast, cell wall, vacuole, nucleus, mitochondria, ribosome, cytoplasm, cell wall and membrane
Structural components of an animal cell
Cytoplasm, nucleus, mitochondria, ribosome, cell membrane
Structural components of a fungal cell
Ribosome, nucleus, vacuole, mitochondria, ribosome, cell membrane and wall
Structural components of a bacterial cell
Cytoplasm, plasmid, circular chromosome, cell wall and membrane
Function of the cell wall
Supports cell and gives shape
Function of ribosome
Site of protein synthesis
Function of mitochondria
Powerhouse of cell and site of aerobic respiration
What cell do chloroplasts appear in? Why?
Plant cells as they are the site of photosynthesis
What cell structures do plant and animal cells have in common
Nucleus, cell membrane, mitochondria, ribosome, cytoplasm
What is the only difference between a plant and fungal cell
Fungal cells are different shapes and don’t have chloroplasts
