Eukaryotes vs. Prokaryotes****
The DNA is in the nucleus of this type of cell.
The protective, semi-permeable layer protecting the cell.
Cell membrane
Nucleus
The brain of the cell.
Directs the cell's activities.
Contains the genetic material (DNA, Chromosomes)
If the cell were a school, this organelle would be the principal.
Nucleus
What is the organelle that transports proteins around the cell?
The Endoplasmic Reticulum
This type of cell has no membrane-bound organelles.
Prokaryotes
This organelle traps sunlight for photosynthesis.
Chloroplasts
Cell Wall
The rigid outer layer of the PLANT cell that provides support to the cell.
If the cell were a school, the lysosomes would be?
The janitor
What is the largest organelle in the plant cell?
The vacuole
In this type of cell the DNA is in the cytoplasm.
Prokaryotes
This is where proteins are made ***
Ribosomes
Vacuoles
Stores food, water, wastes, etc.
Much larger in plants.
If the cell were a school, the cell membrane would be represented by?
The walls, fences, etc around the school
What is the cell theory?
1. All organisms are made up of one or more cells.
2. The cell is the basic unit of life.
3. All cells come from existing cells.
The largest group of prokaryotes are?
Bacteria
Tiny strands inside the nucleus that aid in directing the cell's functions ***
Chromatin
Mitochondria
Powerhouse of the cell.
Convert food into energy that the cell can use.
If the cell were a city, the Post Office would represent?
The Golgi Apparatus
What is the function of ribosomes? ***
To make proteins
Ribosomes are in this type of cell.
Both Eukaryotes and Prokaryotes
This is where ribosomes are made ***
The nucleolus
Golgi apparatus
Make, process, and package proteins.
Receives proteins and materials from the Endoplasmic Reticulum.
If the cell were a city, what would the highways and road systems represent?
Endoplasmic Reticulum
What is the difference between the smooth and rough endoplasmic reticulum? *****
The rough ER has ribosomes and makes and delivers proteins.
The smooth ER does not have ribosomes and it makes fats and lipids.
