Animal and Plant Cells

• An animal cell:

  A) Cytoplasm

  B) Nucleus

  C) Ribosomes

  D) MItochondria

  E) Cell Membrane

  
• A plant cell:

  A) Chloroplast

  B) Nucleus

  C) Vacuole

  D) Cytoplasm

  E) Ribosome

  F) Mitochondria

  G) Cell wall (Cellulose)

  H) Cell membrane

  
• Nucleus= contains genetic material, controls cell activities, controls cell division
• Cell Membrane= controls what goes in and out of the cell, controls what goes on inside the cell
• Cytoplasm= where chemical reactions take place, where most of the cell's organelles are found
• Mitochondrion= the site of aerobic respiration in eukaryotic cells (contains enzymes)
• Ribosomes= site of protein synthesis, found in the cytoplasm
• Chloroplast= green pigmented organelle that contains chlorophyll. It absorbs light energy and converts it into chemical energy
• Permanent Vacuole= contains cell sap, keeps the cell turgid
