Plant and Animals Cells Flashcards
Nucleus
Controls many of the functions of the cell
Contains DNA
Both cells
Cell Membranes
Barrier between inside and the outside of the cell
Controls movement of the substances into and out of the cell
Semipermeable- some substances can move in and out, while others cannot
Both cells
Microchondria
Power house of the cells
Produces energy for the cells
Both cells
Lysosome
Digest cell nutrients and cell debris
Animal cell
Golgi apparatus
Packages substances for transport out of the cell
Both cells
Ribosome
Manufacturers proteins
Both cells
Endoplasmic reticulum
Smooth and rough (covered in ribosomes)
Transports materials through cells
Both cells
Vacuole
‘Bubbles’ of the cell sap (dissolved sugars and salts)
Digest cell nutrients and waste
Help plants rigidity
Plant cell
Chloroplast
Contain chlorophyll
Site of photosynthesis
Plant cell
Cell wall
Supports, strengthens and protects cells
Plant cell
Cytoplasm
Jelly like liquid that fills up most of the space in a cell and contains hundreds of different chemicals
