Cells Flashcards
What is in a prokaryotes
Nucleoid, small and simple
What is in a euckaryotes
Nucleus, complex
What is in both prokaryotes cells and euckaryotes
Cytoplasm, DNA, cell, membrane, cytoskeleton, ribosome
What is in a plant cell
Large central vacuole, nucleus off to side, cell wall, chloroplast
What is in a animal cell
Many small vacuoles, centrioles, large nucleus in the center
What is in both plant and animal cells
Mitochondria, cytoplasm, Golgi apparatus, ribosomes, cell membrane
3 similarities between prokaryotic and euckaryotic cells
DNA, ribosomes, plasma membrane
3 differences between prokaryotic and euckaryotic cells
Nucleus, organelles, size- euckaryotic are larger
Regulates what enters and leaves the cell; acts as a barrier- surrounds the cell- all three cells
Cell membrane
Organelles are suspended in this fluid-like substance; helps organelles move and grow - background of cell- all three
Cytoplasm
Controls the cell’s daily functions- cytoplasm - euckaryotic
Nucleus
Contains genetic information- nucleus
Chromosomes
Produces ribosomes- nucleus
Nucleolus
Protects the nucleus; contains nuclear pores- surrounds the nucleus
Nuclear membrane
Acts as a roadway in which substances can travel
throughout the cell - cytoplasm of the cell- by the nucleus- plant and animal
ER
Proteins are made on the ribosomes - cytoplasm of the cell sometimes attached to the ER
Ribosomes
Contain powerful digestive enzymes to break
down old or foreign cell parts- cytoplasm
Lysosomes
Packages and delivers proteins to parts of the cell - cytoplasm
Golgi apparatus
Organelle where cellular respiration occurs; makes
ATP (cellular energy) - cytoplasm
Mitochondria
Stores waste; in plant cells stores water- cytoplasm
Vacuole
Aids in cell division
Cell- Throughout the
cytoplasm of the- only animals have them
Centriole
Protects cell; maintains cell shape; maintains
homeostasis- outside cell membrane in plant/ bacteria cells
Cell wall
vests energy from the sun to produce glucose-Plant cells (or other
photosynthetic cells) - just plants
Chloroplast
Discovered a cell
Robert Hooke
Discovered that living plants and made up of cells
Matthias Schleiden
Discovered that animals are made up of cells
Theodor Schwann
What two people discovered that cells are the basic unit of life
Schleiden, Schwann
All cell come from other living things
Rudolf Virchow
Told Robert Hooke that he saw moving things from his teeth shaving
Aton Van Leeuwenhoek
