Mitochondria are responsible for producing energy through cellular respiration.
The nucleus is the control center of the cell, containing genetic material (DNA) that determines an organism's characteristics.
The nucleus contains the cell's genetic material and controls the cell's activities.
The cell membrane is a semi-permeable outer covering of cells that controls the entrance and exit of materials in the cell.
Mitochondria generate energy for the cell's activities by breaking down nutrients.
Cell membranes regulate what enters or exits the cell through selective permeability.
Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll and are found only in plant cells, where they carry out photosynthesis to produce food.
Cytoplasm is the gel-like substance inside the plasma membrane that surrounds all cell components except the nucleus.
Cells can be classified based on their shape as unicellular or multicellular.
Unicellular organisms have only one cell, while multicellular organisms have many cells working together to form tissues, organs, and systems.
Endoplasmic reticulum is involved in protein production and transport within the cell.
Golgi bodies modifies and packages proteins produced by the endoplasmic reticulum for use or export outside the cell.
Vacuoles store water, nutrients, and wastes inside the cell.
Unicellular organisms have one cell and include bacteria, protists, algae, fungi, and some animals like amoebas.
Multicellular organisms consist of many different types of cells working together to form tissues, organs, and systems.
Mitochondria produce energy through aerobic respiration.
Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll and are found only in plant cells.
Cell membranes regulate what enters and exits the cell.
what are cells?
Cells are living things that can divide and replicate to make more cells. Cells can also create tissues, organs, organ systems and an organism. These cells can either be prokaryotes (unicellular) or eukaryotes (multicellular). Eukaryotes are found in things like fungi, humans animals etc and usually multiply or replicate when there has been damage to heal.
Explain why the soil doesn't qualify as an organism, despite containing billions of living cells.
It doesn't qualify as an organism as a living organism shows that it can move, respire, sense, grow, reproduce, excrete and use nutrition, which soil does not show. If a thing isn't living then it doesn't qualify as an organism.
Bone and blood are examples of tissue
Tissues are made up of cells that work together
Organs are made up of tissues that work together
list from smallest to biggest
cells, tissues, organs, organ systems
Modern cell theory
The first part is that the cell is the smallest living unit in all organisms. The second is that all living things are made of cells and the third is all cells come from pre-existing cells.
What is the difference between unicellular and multicellular?
The difference between unicellular and multicellular, is that unicellular is a prokaryote, which contains singular cells. A multicellular is a eukaryote which contains multiple cells that are interconnected.
Example of a prokaryotic cell
amoeba
Your cheek cell is an example of a eukaryotic cell, true or false?
true
What does the cytoskeleton do?
The cytoskeletal organises and protects the cell and determines its shape.
DNA is found in the nucleus of eukaryotes
true
The nucleus regulates cell function
true
What is the difference between rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum
The presence of ribosomes. There are ribosomes in the rough endoplasmic reticulum but not smooth.
What is the function of rough endoplasmic reticulum
to produce proteins for the rest of the cell to function.
What is the function of smooth endoplasmic reticulum
the synthesis of essential lipids such as phospholipids and cholesterol. Smooth ER is also responsible for the production and secretion of steroid hormones. It is also responsible for the metabolism of carbohydrates. The smooth ER store and releases calcium ions.
The golgi apparatus is responsible for packaging and secretion
true
What are the power plants of the cell
mitochonria
What do chloroplasts do?
Make glucose/food using sunlight, water and carbon dioxide
Differences between plant and animal cells include
Plants have a cell wall and chloroplasts
Function of nuclues
nucleus controls everything in the cell
cell membrane function
Is a border patrol, controlling what goes in and out of the cell.
