Plant Cells
What color are plant cells normally?
Green
True or False: animal cells have chloroplast
False
The organelle contains the cell's genetic material (the DNA)?
What is the nucleus
A student is analyzing a cell under a microscope. They notice that it is lacking a cell wall. What conclusion can the student make about which type of cell they are viewing?
It is a chicken's cell.
It is a tree cell.
It is a flower cell.
It is a strawberry cell.
A. it is a chicken's cell
no, they make their own food
What is the usual shape of an animal cell?
Flexible/round
Cytoplasm
What is a gel-like liquid inside the cell membrane that holds the organelles
The tool used to view cells because they are too small to be seen with a just bare eyes
What is a microscope
Something jelly-like, such as slime or jello
What shape are plant cells and why?
They are stiff/rigid rectangular shapes because they have cell walls.
How is the cell membrane and the nucleus similar?
Both of them allow certain material in and out of the cell
Chloroplast
What is the organelle that converts sunlight into energy (food) for the plant
What allows plants to use the energy from sunlight?
Chloroplast
How do plants get energy and make food?
The chloroplast takes sunlight to turn to food
True or false: Animal cells need cell walls to help with movement.
False -- animals do not have cell walls
Cell Membrane
What is a layer around the outside of the cell that lets things in and out
True or false: The cell membrane is on the outside of the cell wall
False, the cell wall surrounds the cell membrane
What is a school is most like the nucleus?
What are the three things that both plant and animal cells both have?
The nucleus, cell membrane, and cytoplasm
True or false: When making an animal cell model, a student should use a shoebox.
False -- animal cells are flexible. Student could use a bag.
Cell wall
What is gives the cell structure/shape and protection
What is magnification?
The act of zooming in on an item
How is the cell membrane and cell wall different?
The cell membranes lets thing in and out while the cell wall gives structure and protection
