Test 2= Cells And Organs Practice Flashcards
Plants cells have-
A cell wall to keep its shape
Vacuole is a lot bigger then a animal cells
Have Chloroplasts
Both have mitochondria and chytoplasm
Animal cells have-
No cell wall just the cytoplasm
Small vacuous
Don’t have chloroplasts
Both have mitochondria and chytoplasm
What does it do?
Cell wall
Plant cell
Helps the cell keep its shape
What does it do?
Vacuous
Plant cell
It is very large and contains a number of enzymes and store nutrients or provide a place to degrade unwanted substances.
What does it do?
Chloroplasts
Plant cell
Stores sunlight to make food in photosynthesis
What does it do?
Mitochondria
Animal cell
Produces the majority of the cells energy from food
What does it do?
Cytoplasm
Animal cell
A gell like substance in the cell
What does it do?
Nucleus
Animal cell
A membrane-bound structure that contains the cells genetic information
What does it do?
Cell memebrane
Animal cell
It surrounds the animal cell and controls what goes in and out of it
Shape of a plant cell
Rectangular
Shape of and animal cell
Circular
What is the process called when cells divide to become more cells
Mitosis
What does is it mean?
Non-Vascular plants
Doesn’t have any vessels. Gets its water by soaking it up with a sponge.
What does is it mean?
Vascular plants
Has a:
Xylem (carries water from the roots)
and a
Phloem (carries sugar from leaves to the plant)
Digestive system:
The process where food gets broken down and digested using the stomach, esophaguses and small intestine.
The respiratory system:
The process when our lungs breathe in oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide. Uses: lungs,diaphragm and mouth
The Excretory system:
The process where unwanted waste gets removed from the body through urine. Uses kidneys and bladder
The circulatory system:
When blood gets transported around the body using the heart, veins and artery. It supplies cells with oxygen and food and carries away wastes like carbon dioxide.
The reproductive system:
The process when a baby is made inside of the female body. Uses: ovaries and uterus
The nervous system:
When you sense something using your eyes, ears, nose, tongue and skin. When you sense something you send a message to the brain to tell it what is happening.
The endocrine system:
This system produces and discharges chemicals called hormones. Hormones control things like growth or sexual characteristics. Uses: thyroid, pancreas, ovaries and testes.
The skeleton system:
The process that helps us move our limbs or can protect delicate organs with a bone casing around it. Muscles are attached to the bones. Uses: cartilage and bones
The muscle system:
Muscles are attached to bones and they cause movement when they contract and relax. Muscles are found in pairs around a joint. Uses: muscles and tendon
