  • What is a eukaryote?
    an organism that are made up of eukaryotic cells
  • What is a prokaryote?
    A prokaryote is a single-celled organism that lacks a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles.
  • what subcellular structures to animal cells have?

    nucleus, cytoplasm, cell membrane, mitochondria, ribosomes
  • Role of the nucleus?
    Genetic information storage and control of cell activities.
  • Role of cytoplasm?
    Chemical reactions , including metabolism, protein synthesis, and cell division, occur in the cytoplasm. Contains enzymes that control the chemical reactions
  • Role of the cell membrane?
    holds the cell together and controls what goes in and out
  • Role of mitochondria?
    Energy production (aerobic respiration)
  • role of ribosomes?
    Protein synthesis

    Cell wall, chloroplasts, permanent vacuole, cell membrane, nucleus, mitochondria, ribosomes, cytoplasm
  • role of the cell wall?

    Protection, support and strength
  • role of the vacuole?

    contains cell sap
  • Role of chloroplasts?
    Photosynthesis
  • Role of chlorophyll in the chloroplasts?

    absorbs light for photosynthesis
  • What subcellular structures does a bacteria cell have?
    Cell membrane, cytoplasm, ribosomes, and genetic material (DNA: a single circular strand, small rings called plasmids), flagellum
  • Role of the flagellum in a bacteria cell?
    Movement
