Cells B1 Flashcards
What are Eukaryotic cells
Eukaryotic cells are complex. All animal and plant cells are eukaryotic
What are prokaryotic cell
Prokaryotic cells are smaller and simpler. Bacteria are prokaryotic cells
Nucleus
Contains genetic material. The genetic material controls what the cell does. These can be found in animal and plant cells.
Cytoplasm
Where most of the chemical reaction happen. These can be found in animal and plant cells.
Cell membrane
Controls what goes in and out of the cell. These can be found in animal and plant cells
Mitochondria
Where most aerobic respiration happens. Respiration transfers energy that the cell needs to work. These can be found in animal and plant cells
Ribosomes
These are where proteins are made in the cell. Can be found in animal and plant cells.
Cell wall
Made of cellulose. It supports the cell and strengthens it. Can only be found in plant cells.
Permanent vacuole
Contains cell sap. Can only be found in plant cells.
Chloroplast
Where photosynthesis happens. Photosynthesis makes food for the plant. Can only be found in a plant cell.
