Organisation of the organism Flashcards
Test 1 Cell structure: Where is cytoplasm found?
Found inside the cell and contains all the other cell structures
Where is the nucleus found?
The nucleus is surrounded by nuclear membrane to separate it from the cytoplasm.
Where is the cell membrane?
The cell membrane surrounds the cell
What is the cell wall made of and where is it in the cell?
The cell wall is made of cellulose and surrounds the cell membrane in plant cells
(only in plant cells)
Where are the choloroplast found? What are they?
Chloroplasts are organelles found in the cytoplasm that are packed with the pigment chlorophyll and so are green in colour
(only in plant cells)
What are Vacuoles and where are they found?
Vacuoles are large vesicles that take up a large part of the interior of plant cells
What is mitochondria and where is it found in the cell?
Mitochondria (singular: mitochondrion) are organelles found throughout the cytoplasm.
(seen only under microscope with higher magnification)

What are ribosomes and where are they found?
Ribosomes are tiny structures that can be free within the cytoplasm or attached to a system of membranes within the cell known as Endoplasmic Reticulum
(seen only under microscope with higher magnification)
What are vesicles and where are they found?
Vesicles are small circular structures found moving throughout the cytoplasm
(seen only under microscope with higher magnification)
Functions of the structure can be found in notes and textbook, too much to put in flashcards. Under : 2.1.2 Functions of Cellular & Subcellular Structures.

Define a cell
Basic funtional and structural units in a living organism.
What are tissues?
Group of cells of similar structure working together to perform the same function.
What are organs?
Made from different tissues working together to perform specific functions.
What are organ systems?
Groups of organs with related functions, working together to perform body functions.
