  • All things made of living cells cells are either prokaryotic or eukaryotic
  • A prokaryotic cell is a single celled organism
  • Animal cell have.
    • nucleus - genetic material
    • cytoplasm - chemical reactions.
    • cell membrane - holds cell together rigid.
    • mitochondria - aerobic respiration takes place
    • ribosomes - protein synthesis
  • Plant cells also have
    . cell wall - cellulose strengths cell.
    . perm vacuole - cell sap
    chloroplast - photosynthesis occurs contain chlorophyll
  • What are the two types of cells?
    • Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic
  • Eukaryotic cells are complex cells
  • Prokaryotic cells are small, simple cells
  • A eukaryote is an organism made up of eukaryotic cells
  • A prokaryote is a single-cell organism
  • Bacteria is made up of prokaryotic cells
  • Plants and animals are made up of eukaryotic cells
  • The Nucleus contains genetic material that controls the activities of the cell
  • The Cytoplasm is a gel-like substance where most chemical reactions happen and contains enzymes that control these reactions
  • The Cell Membrane holds the cell together and controls what goes in and out
  • The Mitochondria is where most of the reactions for aerobic respiration take place
  • Ribosomes are where proteins are made in the cell
  • Subcellular structures in most animal cells include: Nucleus, Cytoplasm, Cell Membrane, Mitochondria, and Ribosomes
  • Subcellular structures in a plant cell include: Nucleus, Cytoplasm, Vacuole, Cell Membrane, Cell Wall, Mitochondria, Ribosomes, and Chloroplasts
  • The Cell Wall is a rigid structure made of cellulose which supports and strengthens the cell
  • The Vacuole is a permanent structure that contains cell sap
  • Cell sap is a weak solution of sugar and salts
  • Chloroplasts are where photosynthesis occurs, making food for the plant
  • Chloroplasts contain a green substance called chlorophyll which absorbs the light needed for photosynthesis
  • Subcellular structures in bacteria include: Cytoplasm, Cell Membrane, Cell Wall, Plasmids, and a singular circular strand of DNA
  • The single circular strand of DNA found in bacteria controls the cell and floats freely in the cytoplasm
  • Plasmids are small rings of DNA
  • Cells are looked at through microscopes
  • Light microscopes use light and lenses to form an image of a specimen and magnify it
  • Light microscopes let us see individual cells and large subcellular structures
  • Electron microscopes let us see smaller things in more detail, like internal structures such as mitochondria, chloroplasts, ribosomes, and plasmids
  • Electron microscopes use electrons to form an image
  • Electron microscopes have higher magnification and resolution compared to light microscopes
  • The formula for magnification is image size divided by real size
  • The formula to calculate image size is magnification multiplied by real size
  • The formula to calculate real size is image size divided by magnification
  • Standard form is used to write something with many 0's as something more manageable
  • 0.017 in standard form is 1.7 x 10^-2
  • Cell differentiation is the process in which a cell becomes specialized to do its job
  • Different subcellular structures develop during differentiation
  • Animal cells have the ability to differentiate at an early stage but mostly lose it after becoming specialized
