Cells

Cards (19)

  • All living things are made of cells.
  • Cells are either prokaryotic or eukaryotic.
  • Eukaryotic cells are complex and include all animal and plant cells.
  • Prokaryotic cells are smaller and simpler, e.g. bacteria.
  • Eukaryotes are organisms that are made up of eukaryotic cells.
  • A prokaryote is a prokaryotic cell.
  • Animal cells have a nucleus, mitochondria, cytoplasm, cell membrane, and ribosomes.
  • Ribosomes are where proteins are made.
  • The cell membrane holds the cell together and controls what goes in and out.
  • the cytoplasm is a gel-like substance where most of the chemical reactions happen. It contains enzymes that control the chemical reactions.
  • Nucleus contains genetic material that controls the activities of the cell.
  • Mitochondria is the site of aerobic respiration. Respiration transfers energy that cell needs to work.
  • label the cell
    A) cytoplasm
    B) nucleus
    C) cell membrane
    D) mitochondria
    E) ribosome
  • Plant cells have a rigid cell wall, a permanent vacuole, and chloroplasts.
  • A plant cell wall is made of cellulose. It supports the cell and strengthens it.
  • A permanent vacuole contains cell sap (a weak solution of sugar and salts)
  • Prokaryotes have a cell membrane, cell wall, cytoplasm, plasmid and circular strand of DNA.
