name the key parts of a plant cell
Cell Membrane Nucleus Cytoplasm Chloroplasts Cell wall Vacuole
What do only plant cells have
a cell wall
Vacuole
Chloroplasts
What does a nucleus do
controls what the cell does
Describe cytoplasm
Jelly-like stuff where most chemical reactions happen.
It is where a cell makes new substances that it needs.
What does the cell membrane do
This is a thick skin around the cell
holds the cell together
controls what goes in and out of the cell
seperates it from other cells
What are Mitchondria
Mitochondria are tiny structures inside the cell where most of the reactions for aerobic respiration take place. Respiration releases energy for the cell
Describe a cell wall
Is it found in plant or animal cells
A rigid out coating made of cellulose - it gives support and protection to the cell.
Plant cell
what is a vacuole
This is filled with cell sap - a weak solution of sugar and salt
state two functions of the cell wall
supports and protects a plant cell
It is like a box with holes in it to help to suport and protect the cell. It is made out of cellulose
which parts of a plant cell can you also find in an animal cell
Nucleus
Cytoplasm
Cell Membrane
which word isthe odd one out and why cell chloroplast organ tissue
chloroplast because the other are found in both plants and animals
what are chloroplasts
These contain green cholorphyll used for photosynthesis.
Chloroplasts use light energy from the sun to power a process call photosynthesis wihch makes food for the plant
