Controls the passage of substance such as glucosse and mineral ions into the cell.
What is the function of the cytoplasm(both)
The cytoplasm is a liquid gell in which the organelles are suspended most chemical reactions happen here.

The nucleus controls what activities go on in the cell an is sourounded by nuclear membrane.Contains the genes on the chromosomes that carry the instructions for making proteins needed to make new cells.
What is the function of ribosomes(both)
Where protetin synthesis takes place,making all the proteins needed in the cell.
What is the function of permant vacuole(plant cell)
This is the place in the cyroplasm filled with cell sap this is important for keeping the cells rigid
What is the function of chloroplast(plant cell)
They are found in all plants of a plant.they are green because they contain the green substance chlorphyll.Chlorphyll absorbs light so the plant can make food by photosynthesis.Root cells do not have chloroplasts because they are underground and do not photosythesis.
