Plant vs Animal
Identify
Types of Organisms
Cell Song
100
This is the boundary that surrounds a cell and controls what enters or leaves the cell.
cell membrane
100
This structure provides support and protection for plant cells but is NOT found in animal cells.
What is the cell wall?
100
Green:
The tough, nonliving, outer layer of each plant cell, it gives the cell shape, strength, and support.
Cytoplasm
100
These are organisms made up of a single cell.
Bonus +100 pts: Give an example of an organism.
Unicellular organisms
Ex: Bacteria, amoebas
100
Try to pull a fast one, the cytoplasm gels,
the ___________ takes over, controllin' everything
nucleus!
200
The nucleus acts as the ____________ for the cell.
What is control center?
200
This large sac in plant cells stores water, food, and air.
What is a central vacuole?
200
YELLOW & blue organelle, makes energy from food
Mitochondria
200
This term refers to organisms made up of many cells.
Bonus +200: Name how their cells are organized from smallest to biggest.
Multicellular.
Bonus: cells → tissues → organs → organ systems
200
Inside the ________ we can float around for hours...
Vacuole!
300
This organelle is known as the "powerhouse of the cell" because it breaks down food to make energy.
What is the mitochondria?
300
This organelle is found only in plant cells and converts sunlight into food, which is used for energy.
What is a chloroplast?
300
RED: factory, production & packaging center
Endoplasmic Reticulum
300
This type of cell includes all plants, animals, fungi and protists.
It has a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles.
What is eukaryotic?
300
Running round with _________, lovin' sunlight showers
chloroplasts!
400
This is the gooey liquid inside the cell that holds the other organelles in place.
What is cytoplasm?
400
This organelle is found ONLY in animal cells, is shaped like a bunch of little tubes, and helps the cell divide.
What is a centriole?
400
pinkish-purple; post office that receives, sorts, delivers mail
Golgi body
400
If I contain chloroplasts, a cell wall, and a large vacuole, what kind of cell am I?
Plant cell
400
The __________'s something every cell needs, breaking down the food and releasin' energy
mitochondria!
500
These small organelles help turn DNA into proteins, and are found in both prokaryotic & eukaryotic cells.
What are ribosomes?
500
Small round organelle ONLY in animal cells.
Function: Recycling centers -- break down waste materials and old cell parts
What is lysosome?
500
Dark yellow tubes; help cell to divide
What are centrioles?
500
This is a group of cells that work together to carry out a particular task in an organism
Ex: in humans, many specialized "muscle cells" work together to allow movement in larger muscles.
What is tissue ?
500
If you still think that this rap is whack, remember _________s making proteins, gettin' jacked!
ribosomes!!
