Biology

• Mitochondria produce energy through aerobic respiration.
• Chromosomes are made up of genes that determine characteristics such as eye colour and height.
• The nucleus is the control centre of the cell, containing DNA.
• Chloroplasts are found only in plant cells, algae, and some protists.
• The thylakoid membrane is the site where photosynthesis occurs.
• The nucleus contains the genetic material (DNA) which controls all cell activities, including growth and reproduction.
• Ribosomes are responsible for protein synthesis.
• Vacuoles store water, nutrients, and wastes.
• Lysosomes contain digestive enzymes to break down waste materials inside the cell.
• Vacuoles store water, nutrients, and wastes within the cell.
• Lysosomes contain digestive enzymes to break down waste products.
• Cell membranes regulate what enters or leaves the cell.
• Cell walls provide support to the cell and prevent it from bursting due to osmosis.
• Lysosomes contain digestive enzymes that break down waste materials inside the cell.
• Vacuoles store water, waste products, pigments, and enzymes involved in digestion.
• Photosystem II (PSII) absorbs light energy from chlorophyll to split water molecules into oxygen and hydrogen ions.
• Lysosomes


  Membrane-bound organelles that contain digestive enzymes and break down waste materials and foreign substances inside the cell. Found in animals and humans.
• Vacuoles


  Membrane-bound organelles that are involved in storage and transport of substances within the cell. Found in both plant and animal cells. In plant cells, vacuoles store water, nutrients, and waste products and transport substances from one part of the cell to another. In animal cells, vacuoles are smaller and less numerous and are involved in the storage and transport of substances.
