Cells

• The cell wall is a rigid layer that surrounds the cell membrane in plant cells and provides structural support.
• Ribosomes are involved in protein synthesis.
• Mitochondria are responsible for producing energy through cellular respiration.
• Chloroplasts are organelles found only in plant, algae, and some protist cells where photosynthesis occurs.
• The nucleus is the control center of the cell.
• The cell membrane is a selectively permeable barrier that surrounds the cell and regulates the movement of substances in and out of the cell.
• Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll, which is necessary for photosynthesis.
• Mitochondria generate energy through aerobic respiration.
• Vacuoles store water, nutrients, and waste products inside the cell.
• Chloroplasts are found only in plant cells and are responsible for photosynthesis.
• Vacuoles store water, nutrients, waste products, pigments, and enzymes.
• Cell division involves the duplication of genetic material (DNA) and the separation of chromosomes into two daughter cells.
• Prokaryotic cells lack a true nucleus and have their DNA organized as a circular molecule called a plasmid.
• Cells can be classified based on their structure into prokaryotic (bacteria) or eukaryotic (plant, animal, fungi).
• Prokaryotes have no true nucleus while eukaryotes do.
• Mitochondria are the powerhouse of the cell where energy production occurs through aerobic respiration.
• The cytoplasm is the fluid portion inside the cell that contains various substances like proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, salts, and other organic compounds.
• Eukaryotic cells contain membrane-bound organelles such as mitochondria, chloroplasts, ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, vacuole, cytoskeleton, cell wall, and plasma membrane.
• Cell walls provide structural support and protection to the cell.
• Ribosomes synthesize proteins from amino acids according to instructions provided by DNA.
• Chloroplasts are found only in plant cells and contain chlorophyll which is used to capture light energy during photosynthesis.
• Ribosomes are responsible for protein synthesis and consist of RNA and proteins.
• Cell walls provide structural support to plant cells.
• Nucleus - Contains genetic material (DNA) and controls all activities of the cell.
• Cilia and flagella are hair-like structures used by cells to move around or transport material.
• Ribosomes synthesize proteins.
• Lysosomes break down unwanted materials within the cell.
• Mitochondria produce ATP through aerobic respiration using oxygen and glucose.
