Rigid layer that provides protection and structure for plant cells.
Cell Wall
Found only in PLANT cells. Its purpose is photosynthesis.
Chloroplast.
Complex organelles that convert energy from food into a form that the cell can use - the site of cellular respiration.
Mitochondria
This is the recycling center of the cell. They digest foreign bacteria that invade the cell, rid the cell of toxic substances, and recycle worn-out cell components.
Lysosomes
Fluid that fills up the space inside the cell.
Cytoplasm
Protective phospholipid layer ALL cells have
Cell Membrane
This type of cell has a cell wall, a large central vacuole and chloroplasts
plant cell
How does the shape of the plant cell differ from an animal cell?
Plant cells have a more rigid rectangular shape.
Makes Protein; ALL cells have these
Ribosome
Serves as the cell’s command center, sending directions to the cell to grow, mature, divide, or die. It also houses DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid), the cell’s hereditary material.
Nucleus
Stores food, water, and waste; extra large in plant cells
Vacuole
Tail like structure that functions in movement.
Cilia or Flagella
Packages molecules processed by the endoplasmic reticulum to be transported out of the cell.
Golgi Apparatus
A tool used to view cells.
Microscope
____________freely floats in the nucleus until cell reproduction begins, then the names changes to ____________. (2 answers in the correct order)
Chromatin, chromosomes.
a web of proteins that gives shape and support to the cell, also provides a "highway system" for moving materials
Microtubules or Cytoskeleton
Does not have ribosomes on it; Makes and stores lipids and transports them
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum
What structures are found in plant cells that are not found in animal cells?
cell wall and chloroplasts
These are tightly coiled pieces of DNA found in the nucleus of the cell during cell division.
Chromosomes
This green pigment that absorbs solar energy. You can find it in the chloroplasts. The image below is not a chloroplast, but performs a similar function.
Chlorophyll
What are we NOT allowed to call the mitochondria?
The "powerhouse of the cell"
RECHARGEABLE BATTERY is more accurate and creative....everyone says that other thing:(
What organelle is this?
Centrioles
This organelle transports cell materials from one place to another - the Uber drivers of the cell:)
Vesicles
This part of the cell is not actually an organelle, but is a jelly-like substance that supports the organelles.
Cytoplasm
cyto - "cell"
-plasm - "something molded or formed", "the substance of a cell"
Name 5 cell organelles shared by plants and animals.
cell membrane, nucleus, cytoplasm, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, ribosomes, Golgi apparatus, and vacuoles
