  • Label the animal cell
    A= Mitochondria
    B= Ribosomes
    C=Cytoplasm
    D=Nucleus
    E=Cell Membrance
  • Label the Plant Cell
    A= Cell wall
    B=Cell Membrance
    C=Vacuole
    D=Cytoplasm
    E=Nucleus
    F=Ribosomes

    H=Mitochondria
  • Function of parts of Animal cell
    • Nucleus=Controls the activities of the cell( where DNA is found in chromosomes).
    • Cytoplasm=”jelly” like substance where chemical reactions take place( anaerobic respiration).
    • Mitochondria=site of aerobic respiration( chemical reaction that releases energy from glucose ,food).
    • Ribosomes= to produce proteins in the cell.
    • Cell Membrane= Controls what enters and exits the cell, it is partially permeable( means that allows small molecules to pass through such as water but not larger molecules like starch )
  • What is the function of the nucleus in a plant cell?
    It controls the activities of the cell and contains DNA in chromosomes.
  • Why is the cytoplasm important in a plant cell?
    It is a jelly-like substance where chemical reactions, such as anaerobic respiration, take place.
  • What is the primary role of ribosomes in a plant cell?
    To produce proteins in the cell.
  • How does the cell wall contribute to the plant cell's structure?
    It supports the cell and gives it shape.
  • What is the function of the cell membrane in a plant cell?
    It controls what enters and exits the cell and is partially permeable.
  • What does it mean that the cell membrane is partially permeable?
    It allows small molecules, such as water, to pass through but not larger molecules like starch.
  • What is the role of mitochondria in a plant cell?
    It is the site of aerobic respiration, a chemical reaction that releases energy from glucose.
  • What is the function of chloroplasts in a plant cell?
    They are the site of photosynthesis, a chemical reaction that makes glucose for the plant.
  • What does the vacuole contain and what is its function?
    It contains cell sap and serves as storage for materials.
  • What are the main functions of the parts of a plant cell?
    • Nucleus: Controls cell activities and contains DNA.
    • Cytoplasm: Site of chemical reactions (aerobic respiration).
    • Ribosomes: Produce proteins.
    • Cell Wall: Supports the cell and gives shape.
    • Cell Membrane: Controls entry and exit of substances; partially permeable.
    • Mitochondria: Site of aerobic respiration (energy release from glucose).
    • Chloroplasts: Site of photosynthesis (glucose production).
    • Vacuole: Contains cell sap for storage.
