Parts of the Cell
Function: to protect the cell from its surroundings in both plants and animals
Like your skin
What is Cell Membrane
Takes in nutrients and breaks them down creating energy (ATP).
Cellular Respiration ( Oxygen + Glucose --> Carbon Dioxide + Water + ATP)
The powerhouse of the cell
What is Mitochondria
Absorbs the sun and converts it into glucose.
Photosynthesis (Water + Carbon Dioxide --> Oxygen + Glucose)
What is Chloroplast
The system that circulates blood and lymph through the body.
What is Circulatory
The framework of the body which protects and supports the body tissues and internal organs.
What is Skeletal
The jelly-like substance surrounding the organelles keeping them in place.
What is Cytoplasm
FHolds DNA & controls all cell functions.
Control center of the cell
What is Nucleus
Found only in plant cells. It both adds structural support and protection.
Like our skin and bones.
What is Cell Wall
The organs and glands in the body that are responsible for the breaking down and absorption of nutrients.
What is Digestive
The organ system permitting movement of the body maintains posture and circulates blood throughout the body.
What is Muscular
Gives a cell its shape, offers support and facilitates movement.
Like your bones
What is Cytoskeleton
Makes proteins
What is Ribosome
Organisms made of only one cell
What is unicellular
The organ system that protects the body from various kinds of damage, such as loss of water or abrasion from outside.
What is Integumentary
Transmits information using nerve impulses between parts of the body.
What is Nervous
Processes and bundles proteins and lipids to get them ready to ship out of the cell.
Like the post office
What is Golgi Body/ Golgi membrane
responsible for moving lipids and proteins to the Golgi Body.
What is Endoplasmic Reticulum
Cells that contain a nucleus and other organelles
What is Eukaryotic
The collection of glands that produce hormones that regulate metabolism, growth and development, tissue function, sexual function, reproduction, sleep, and mood, other things.
What it Endocrine
The system that transports lymph throughout the body/ fight disease.
What is Lymphatic
Digests and removals excess or worn-out organelles, food particles, and viruses or bacteria.
The trash can of the cell
What is Lysosome
Holds excess water or food for later use.
What is Vacuole
What two organelles do plants cells have that animals don't?
What is Chloroplast and Cell wall
The system that removes excess, unnecessary materials from the body fluids, to prevent damage to the body.
What is Excretory
The set of organs that allows a person to breathe and exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide throughout the body.
What is Respiratory
