Cells Flashcards
What is the difference between eukaryote and prokaryote cells
Prokaryote has no nucleus the other one has a nucleus
What is an example of a prokaryote cell
Bacteria
What is an example of a eukaryote cell
Fungi animals
What do both eukaryote and prokaryote cells contain
Cell membrane ribosome cytoplasm genetic material (DNA) mitochondria vacuole
What type of cells are your body made of
Eukaryote cells
What are all living things made of
Cells
What do cells come from
A pre existing cell
What do eukaryote cells contain
Nucleus endoplasmic reticulum Golgi apparatus
What plant cells contain
Cell wall chloroplasts cytoplasm cell membrane permanent vacuole ribosomes nucleus mitochondria
What is the function of the cell membrane
Controls what goes in and out of the cells
What is the function of cytoplasm
To carry out chemical reactions
What is the function of ribosome
They make do protein synthesis
What is the function of the nucleus
It is the DNA of the cell it controls the activities
What is the function of endoplasmic reticulum
It makes proteins
What is the function of Golgi apparatus
It packs proteins and lipids into molecules
What is the function of mitochondria
It powers the cell and releases energy in respiration
What is the function of the cell wall
Additional protection
What is the function of chloroplasts
Makes glucose using light and energy
What is the function of vacuole
It is storage
Name 5 organelles found in animal cells
Cytoplasm mitochondria nucleus cell membrane ribosome
What are 3 organelles found in plant cells
Chloroplasts sap vacaule cell wall
What type of microscope is used to look at cells
Light microscope
What are the chemicals used to stain animal and plant cells
Iodine
What organelle is used for protein synthesis
Ribosome
What is the word equation for respiration
Glucose + oxygen turns into carbon dioxide water and energy
What is the equation for the size of an image
Size of image
Magnification. Size of real object
E.g size of image =magnification * size of real object
What do animal cells contain
Nucleus cytoplasm cell membrane ribosome mitochondria
What is the function of cell wall
Strengthens cell
What is the function of chloroplasts
Absorb light to make food
What is the function of the permanent vacuole
Filled with cell sap
What is in bacteria and yeast cells
Cell membrane slime capsule plasmids flagella genetic material cytoplasm
What is the function of slime capsule
Protects the bacteria cell
What is the function of the flagellum
Long protein strand used to move around bacteria cell
What is the function of the plasmids
Extra rings of DNA that code for specific functions EG antibiotic resistance
