Animals and plant cells

Cards (24)

  • it is the building blocks of life
    cells
  • help in the various important life
    processes within an organism
    cells
  • considered one of the most important
    principles in the study of life
    cell theory]
    1. All living organisms are made of cells.
    2. Cells are the basic unit of life.
    3. Cells arise from preexisting cells.
  • Small, simple cells and do not have
    nucleus
    Prokaryotic
  • ancient life form
    prokaryotic
  • Larger and complex, possesses a nucleus
    eukaryotic
  • controls the cell like a city hall
    nucleus
  • referred to as the brain of the cell, contains the genetic material of the cell where ribosomes are made

    nucleolus
  • "city limits". it controls what goes in and out of the cell
    cell membrane
  • The cell membrane separates the cell from
    other cells.
  • "road system". moves organelles throughout the cell

    cytoplasm
  • the ribosomes recieve instructions from the nucleus to make proteins
  • Provides a network for
    channels for carrying
    substance from one part
    of the cell to another
    Endoplasmic reticulum
  • Cell’s membrane construction site – all
    of the building materials of cellular
    membranes are formed either in it or
    on it.
    Rough ER
  • functions in lipid metabolism and
    manufacture of steroid hormones

    smooth er
  • “packing & shipping
    office of the cell. It will
    make any finishing touches
    to the proteins made by the
    ribosomes and ship them
    off.
    golgi body
  • they appear in different sizes
    • they are bags that contain digestive enzymes
    • cell demolition site
    lysosomes
  • they are used for collecting used materials to
    get rid of. They are responsible for cleaning the city.
    lysosomes
  • “POWERHOUSE” of the cell,
    they convert food (glucose) into “cell energy”.

    mitochrondia
  • it stores waste material and lysosomes dump the cell's garbage here . "city garbage dump"

    vacuole
  • This ridged structure protects and givesshape to the cell. It is only found in plant cells
    cell wall
  • They convert
    light energy into food
    (glucose).

    Chloroplasts
  • animals use it to reproduce and it releases fibers called microtubles
    centrioles
