Parts of a Cell

• Chloroplast and cell wall are only in plant cells.
• Centrioles are only in animal cells.
• The function of cytoplasm is to hold organelles in place.
• Cytoplasm is a jelly-like substance.
• Cytoplasm is found within the cell.
• Cell wall is the protection layer and is also used for support.
• Cell wall is only in plant cells.
• Cell wall surrounds the cell.
• Cell membrane is the protection layer.
• Cell membrane separates the cell from other cells.
• Cell membrane surrounds the cell.
• Nucleus controls the center of the cell.
• Nucleus directs all of the cell functions & activities.
• Nucleus is to the side of the cell in plant cells.
• Nucleus is the center of the cell in animal cells.
• Nuclear membrane holds the parts of the nucleus together.
• Nuclear membrane controls what goes in and out.
• Nuclear membrane surrounds the nucleus.
• Nucleoplasm is the mixture that stores information.
• Nucleoplasm is rich in nucleic acid.
• Nucleoplasm is inside the nucleus.
• Ribosomes make protein.
• Ribosomes help cells grow and carry out functions.
• Ribosomes are attached to the endoplasmic reticulum or floating in the cytoplasm.
• Endoplasmic reticulum moves substances around the cell.
• Endoplasmic reticulum is folded multiple times.
• There are two types of endoplasmic reticulum: rough and smooth.
• Smooth endoplasmic reticulum makes fat molecules.
• Endoplasmic reticulum is found near the nucleus.
• Golgi apparatus is a folded membrane.
• Golgi apparatus packages proteins and lipids.
• Golgi apparatus sends packages to other places.
• Golgi apparatus creates lysosomes.
• Golgi apparatus is found near the end of endoplasmic reticulum.
• Lysosome helps to break down molecules.
• Lysosome is used to digest food.
• Lysosome destroys microorganisms.
• Lysosome is found within the cell.
• Mitochondria breaks down food and releases energy.
• Mitochondria makes ATP for your body.
