cell structure and transport

• the nucleus contains genetic information that controls the functions of the cell
• the cell membrane controls what enters and leaves the cell
• the cytoplasm is where many cell activities and chemical reactions within the cell occur
• mitochondria provides energy from aerobic respiration
• ribosome is where synthesis makes protein
• chloroplast is where photosynthesis occurs
• permanent vacuole is used to store water and other chemicals as cell sap
• cell wall strengthens and supports the cell
• the DNA loop is a loop of DNA not enclosed from a nucleus
• the plasmid is a small circle of DNA that may contain genes
• A light microscope uses light and lenses to form an image
