  • The nucleus is the cell that stores and regulates DNA
  • The mitochondria is in both plant and animal cell. it uses oxygen and glucose to make energy this is call cellular respiration
  • The vacuole in a cell plant is big and it stores nutrients for the plant
  • The cell membrane provides and important layer to protect the cells interior and controls what goes in and out like a barrier
  • The cell wall provides support, strength, and protection for the plant aswell as hold its shape
  • Chloroplast makes the plant green and produce energy from photosynthesis.
  • cytoplasm holds the components of the cell and protects them from damage it is a gel-like substance that fills the cell and organelles
  • ribosomes are where proteins are made.
  • Specialized plant cells include root hair cells, palisade cells, xylem cells and phloem cells.
  • Root hair cells have long extensions which increase surface area so they can absorb water and minerals more easily.
  • Palisade cells contain lots of chloroplasts so they can carry out photosynthesis efficiently.
  • Xylem cells transport water and mineral up through the stem into leaves.
  • Phloem cells transport sugars produced during photosynthesis around the plant.
  • The plant cell has a cell wall and cell membrane
  • Plant cell has cell wall on the outside and cell membrane inside the cell
  • Animal cells have a cell membrane is inside surrounding cytoplasm but no cell wall
  • The nucleolus is inside the nucleus and produces ribosomes found both in animal and plant cells
  • Golgi body is a organelle and found in animal and plant cell
  • Golgi body send the modified proteins then sends them to vesicles which help transportation
  • Smooth and rough ER are in both animal and plant cells
  • Rough ER helps and makes proteins and has a bumpy surface
  • Smooth ER makes fats and cleans toxins in the cells
  • Mitosis is a process where a cell duplicates its chromosomes into two identical daughter cells
  • Daughter cell is a cell that is undergoes cell division by mitosis
  • cell division is the process where one parent cell splits to form 2 identical daughter cells
  • Prokaryotic cells are cells without a nucleus
  • Eukaryotic cell are cell with a nucleus
  • Every living thing is made of cells
  • All cells comes from pre-existing cells
  • Cells are the basic building block for all living things
