parts of a cell pt 1
a rigid layer of polysaccharides lying outside the plasma membrane of the cells of plants, fungi, and bacteria. In the algae and higher plants, it consists mainly of cellulose.
Cell wall
ribonucleic acid
RNA
a type of cell division that results in two daughter cells each having the same number and kind of chromosomes as the parent nucleus, typical of ordinary tissue growth.
mitosis
a microscopic single-celled organism that has neither a distinct nucleus with a membrane nor other specialized organelles. Prokaryotes include the bacteria and cyanobacteria.
Prokaryotes cells
brings in water and holds it in
roots
the central and most important part of an object, movement, or group, forming the basis for its activity and growth.
Nucleus
a plastid that contains chlorophyll and in which photosynthesis takes place.
Chloroplast
a type of cell division that results in four daughter cells each with half the number of chromosomes of the parent cell, as in the production of gametes and plant spores.
meisosis
re organisms whose cells have a nucleus enclosed within membranes, unlike Prokaryotes
Eukaryotic
brings the water up from the roots to the other parts of the plant
stem
has a cell wall
Plant cell
an organelle found in large numbers in most cells, in which the biochemical processes of respiration and energy production occur. It has a double membrane, the inner layer being folded inward to form layers
Mitochondria
All things are composed of one or more cells
cell theory
having a single set of unpaired chromosomes.
Haploid cells
this part of the plant helps capture light for the plant. Makes more "surface area for the plant"
leaf
does not contain a cell wall
animal cell
the semipermeable membrane surrounding the cytoplasm of a cell
cell membrane
the division of a cell into two daughter cells with the same genetic material.
containing two complete sets of chromosomes, one from each parent.
Diploid cell
the part of the plant that is usually colorful, at the top of the plant.
bulbs
deoxyribonucleic acid
DNA
the material or protoplasm within a living cell, excluding the nucleus.
Cytoplasm
A type of asexual reproduction common among prokaryotes wherein a cell divides giving rise to two cells, each having the potential to grow to the size of the original cell. Supplement. Archaea, bacteria, and protists reproduce asexually by
Binary Fission
constitute a domain of single-celled microorganisms. These microbes are prokaryotes, meaning they have no cell nucleus
Archaea
part of plant that makes it possible for plants to have "sex"and make more plants
