Cells and cell structure Flashcards
what are the main parts of an animal cell
nucleus cytoplasm cell membrane mitochondria ribosomes
which part of a plant cell are not found in an animal cell
cell wall
chloroplast
permanent vacuole
name the parts of a bacteria cell
cytoplasm ribosomes genes (not in a nucleus) cell membrane cell wall
name the parts of a yeast cell
nucleus
cytoplasm
cell membrane
cell wall
what is the function of a nucleus in a cell
controls the activity of a cell
stores the genetic information (genes, DNA)
if a cell has adapted to do a particular job, what is it seen to be?
a specialised cell
what is the function of the cytoplasm
it provides a place for most the chemical reactions to occur in a cell.
what is the function of the cell membrane
controls what substances can enter and leave the cell
what is the function of the mitochondria
to provide a place for most of the energy to be released in respiration.
where does protein synthesis in the cell occur
ribosomes
which feature does a plant cell have which helps them to strengthen and support the cell
a cell wall which consists of cellulose
what is the function of chloroplast
they absorb the light energy from the sun to make glucose (in photosynthesis)
what is found inside the permanent vacuole in a plant cell
cell sap
what is important about the genetic information in a bacteria cell
they are not contained in a nucleus
what is missing in a red blood cell
the nucleus
