Cell structure (animal and plant cells)

Question 1

What are the organelles in an animal cell?

Answer 1

There are:
Cell membrane/ Cell surface membrane
Nucleus/ Control center of the cell
Cytoplasm/ Sloppy jelly
Ribosomes/ Protein maker
Mitochondria/ Power house

Question 2

Cell membrane

Answer 2

Boundary between the inside and the outside of the cell, it is partially and selectively permeable which means it can control some of what comes in and out of the cell.

Question 3

Nucleus

Answer 3

Contains the genetic information of the cell, the DNA which controls which proteins the cell can make.

Question 4

Cytoplasm

Answer 4

The chemical/ metabolic reactions all happen here.

Question 5

Ribosomes

Answer 5

They make proteins through protein synthesis, using the instructions found in the nucleus.

Question 6

Mitochondria

Answer 6

It releases energy for the cell from the food and turns it into ATP.

Question 7

What organelles are in a plant cell?

Answer 7

There are:
Cell membrane/ Cell surface membrane
Nucleus/ Control center of the cell
Cytoplasm/ Sloppy jelly
Ribosomes/ Protein maker
Mitochondria/ Power house
Cell wall
Vacuole/ Permanent vacuole
Choroplasts/ Container for chorophyll

Question 8

Cell wall

Question 9

Vacuole

Answer 9

It is filled with water, mineral ions, ect. cell sap, it puts pressure on the cell wall forces the cytoplasm out against the cell wall and it gives structure and shape, turgid.

Question 10

Choroplasts

Answer 10

Contains chorophyll which is a green pigment, it absorbs light energy to make food in photosynthesis.
