Cells Flashcards
What does an ANIMAL CELLL have?
Nucleus Mitochondria Ribosomes Cell Membrane Cytoplasm
Describe the Nucleus
It contains GENETIC MATERIAL that controls the activities of the cell
Describe the Mitochondria
These are where most of the reactions for RESPIRATION happen
Respiration releases ENERGY that the cells need to work
Describe the Ribosomes
These are where PROTEINS are made in the cell
Describe the cell membrane
It holds the cell together and controls what goes IN and OUT
Describe the cytoplasm
It’s a gel-like substance where most CHEMICAL REACTIONS happen.
It contains ENZYMES that control these chemical reactions
What do PLANT cells have?
Nucleus Mitochondria Ribosomes Cytoplasm Cell Membrane and... Cell Wall Chloroplasts Permanent Vacuole
Describe the Cell Wall
The rigid cell wall is made of CELLULOSE
It SUPPORTS the cell and strengthens it
Describe the Permanent Vacuole
It contains CELL SAP; a weak solution of sugar and salts
Describe Cholorplasts
These are where PHOTOSYNTHESIS takes place, which makes food for the plant
They contain a GREEN substance called CHLOROPHYLL
What is YEAST?
It’s a SINGLE-CELLED MICROORGANISM
What does a YEAST CELL have?
It has a; Cell Membrane Cell Wall Cytoplasm Nucleus
What is BACTERIA
A SINGLE-CELLED MICROORGANISM
What does a BACTERIA CELL have?
It has a; Cytoplasm Cell Membrane Cell Wall NO NUCLEUS
Where is the GENETIC MATERIAL in a BACTERIA CELL?
It floats around in the cytoplasm because bacteria cells don’t have A NUCLEUS
