  • The cytoplasm is the gel-like substance inside the cell membrane where most chemical reactions occur.
  • The nucleus is the control center of the cell, containing genetic material (DNA) that determines the characteristics of an organism.
  • The cell membrane is a thin, flexible barrier that surrounds and protects the cell.
  • Mitochondria are responsible for producing energy through cellular respiration.
  • Cell wall - provides support to plant cells and helps maintain their shape.
  • Ribosomes synthesize proteins using instructions from DNA.
  • Cellular respiration is the process by which cells convert glucose into energy through a series of chemical reactions.
  • Mitochondria are small structures within cells responsible for producing ATP, the main source of energy for cellular processes.
  • Chloroplasts are specialized organelles found in plant cells that contain chlorophyll and are involved in photosynthesis.
  • Vacuoles store water, nutrients, or waste products.
  • Ribosomes are involved in protein synthesis.
  • Chloroplasts - contain chlorophyll and are involved in photosynthesis.
  • Ribosomes - sites of protein synthesis within the cell.
  • Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll and are involved in photosynthesis.
  • Vacuole - stores water, nutrients, and waste products.
  • Vacuole stores water, nutrients, and waste products within the cell.
  • Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll, which allows plants to absorb light energy and produce food through photosynthesis.
  • Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll, a pigment that absorbs light energy used in photosynthesis.
  • The nucleus contains genetic material (DNA) and controls various functions such as protein production and growth.
  • The nucleus contains genetic material (DNA) and controls cell activities.
