Animal Cells I
The mission control of the cell that holds DNA and therefore the instructions for most everything in the cell.
nucleus
Why are plants green?
Chlorophyll is the green pigment in each cell
What is the powerhouse of the cell?
Mitochondria
the cell
Spell DNA out
Deoxyribonucleic acid
Which organelles does a plant have and NOT an animal.
cell wall, chloroplast, central vacuole, & other plastids too (chromoplasts)
What is the UPS of the cell & what does it do?
Golgi Apparatus & it packages and labels molecules to be sent to the correct part of the cell
What does hydrophilic & hydrophobic mean?
Water-loving & water-fearing
The nucleolus make this
RNA
The cell wall is made of???
cellulose
What is like the skeleton of the cell?
& what are it's three parts?
Cytoskeleton
microtubules, microfilaments, & intermediate filaments
what acts as a gate and let's molecules in and out of the cell?
cell membrane
What does RNA stand for and what organelle does it make-up?
Ribonucleic acid
Ribosomes
Describe which organelle helps with photosynthesis and how it does that?
Name all of the parts of the nucleus and diagram it
nucleolus, nuclear envelope, and chromatin/chromosomes, nuclear pores
What is the fancy name for the 2 layers of phospholipids that make up the cell membrane and name the model of it (boat through sea of balloons)
phospholipid bilayer
fluid mosaic model
What are the inner membrane folds of the mitochondria called?
cristae
What are the flattened membranous things inside the chloroplasts that hold chlorophyll called?
thylakoids
What are the two types of endoplasmic reticulum and what do they each do?
rough: makes digestive enzymes that break down molecules (anti-cupid)
smooth: detoxifies poisons and found in liver and kidney cells
BOTH ARE LIKE A HIGHWAY FOR THE CELL
What is the name of a key structure or "part of a cell"?
organelle
