Cells Flashcards
1
Q
Prokaryotic
A
- No nucleus
- Small + simple
- Single/uni cellular
- No organelles
- eg. bacteria/archaea.
2
Q
Prokaryotic + eukaryotic (both).
A
- Have DNA
- Have cell membrane
- Have ribosomes
3
Q
Eukaryotic
A
- Have nucleus
- Can be multi or single/uni cellular
- Have organelles
- eg. funghi, plants, animals, humans.
4
Q
Plant cells
A
- Larger
- Fixed shape
- Has cell wall
- Has chloroplast
- Has large permanent vacuole
5
Q
Animal cells
A
- Smaller
- Circular/irregular in shape
- No cell wall, chloroplast, or large permanent vacuole.
6
Q
Organelle
A
A specialised cell part that has a specific function + are membrane bound.
7
Q
Nucleus
A
Contains DNA + is in the middle of the cell.
8
Q
Cell/plasma membrane
A
Creates a barrier for cells + controls what goes in and out.
9
Q
Cell wall
A
Provides structure + protection.
10
Q
Mitochondria
A
Powerhouse of the cell/provides fuel (produces ATP/energy for the cell).
11
Q
Chloroplast
A
Responsible for photosynthesis.
12
Q
Ribosome
A
Makes up proteins.
13
Q
Smooth ER
A
Involved in the making of lipids (fat organisms) and hormones.
14
Q
Rough ER
A
Transports proteins (ribosomes attached which makes proteins which gets transported by ER).
15
Q
Golgi apparatus
A
Packs proteins for export.
