Plant Cells
Why are plants green?
plants contain chlorophyll
True or False animal cells have chloroplast?
False
Nucleus
the cells control center (brain)
Many cells
multicellular
What is mitochondrion
provides energy for the cell
Do plants need to eat food?
they make their own food.
What organelle controls the cell's activities?
nucleus
Cytoplasm
a gel-like liquid inside the cell membrane
Smallest unit of living things that carry on the basic processes of life.
A cell
True or False can unicellular organisms perform functions on their own?
True
How do plants get energy and make food?
sunlight
What part of the cell do the other parts of the cell float around in?
the cytoplasm
Cell Membrane
The layer around the outside of the cell.
What allows organelles to move freely through out the cell
Cytoplasm
What are the four ways cells can be organzied? 1) group of cells, 2. tissues working together. 3. organs working together.
cells, tissue, organ, and organ system
What are the two things that are unique to plant cells?
vacuole, chloroplasts, cell wall
What are the two things that both plant and animal cells both have?
vacuoles, cell membrane, or mitochondria.
Vacuole
Stores food, water and waste.
Stiff structure outside the cell membrane.
Cell wall
what is photosynthesis
A process where plants make their own food using carbon dioxide, water, using light and chlorophyll.
What may happen to a cell in which the mitochondria do not function properly?
the cell may not survive because it will not have the energy it needs to survive.
How is the cell membrane and the nucleus similar to the cell membrane?
Both of them allow certain material in and out of the regions they surround
Organism
A living thing made of the same tiny building blocks.
What allows plants to use the energy from sunlight?
Chlorphyll, chloroplasts
Give a definition of an organ of the human body and its function
Heart - pumps blood around the body
Lungs - takes in oxygen and gets rid of Carbon dioxide
(or any other organ of the body)
