Prokaryote- no nucleus or membrane-bound organelles, always unicellular
Eukaryote- Has a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles, more complex
When do animal cells have a cell wall?
Never
What is the two-layered arrangement of phosphate and lipid molecules that form a cell membrane?
Phospholipid bilayer
Do plant or animal cells have mitochondria?
Both
explain hypo, hyper and isotonic
Hypo- more water than solutes
Hyper-more solutes than water
Iso- same concentration in and out of cell
What does the central vacuole do in a plant cell?
Stores water
What process happens in the chloroplast?
Photosynthesis

Cell Membrane
Cytoplasm
DNA

Cellular respiration
Explain osmosis and diffusion?
Diffusion-passive movement of materials from high concentration to lower
Osmosis- diffusion of water
Where are ribosomes found?
Floating freely and on the rough ER
What are three differences between plant and animal cells?
