  • The nucleus contains the genetic material (DNA) that controls all cellular activities.
  • Ribosomes synthesize proteins using instructions from DNA.
  • Mitochondria are responsible for producing energy through aerobic respiration.
  • The cytoplasm is the jelly-like substance surrounding the nucleus, containing organelles such as mitochondria, ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, vacuoles, cytoskeleton, and chloroplasts.
  • Cytokinesis is the process where the cytoplasm of a single eukaryotic cell is divided to form two daughter cells.
  • The nucleus is the control centre of the cell, containing genetic material (DNA) that controls all activities within the cell.
  • Cytoplasm - The fluid inside the cell where most chemical reactions take place.
  • Cell membrane - A thin layer of phospholipids with embedded proteins that regulates what enters or leaves the cell.
  • Vacuoles store water, nutrients, waste products, and pigments.
  • Cell membrane - A selectively permeable barrier that regulates what enters or leaves the cell.
  • What does a plant cell have that a plant cell doesn't?
    cell wall,vacuole and cytoplasm
  • Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll and carry out photosynthesis.
  • Plant cells are surrounded by a rigid cell wall made up of cellulose fibres which gives them support and shape.
