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
