Prokaryotes vs Eukaryotes
Three components of prokaryotic cells.
This person coined the term "cell"
Robert Hooke
What is the function of the nucleus?
controls all activities of the cell, contains DNA
These cells contain mitochondria
What are plant and animal cells
What is the name of the long, hairlike structure that helps cells move?
flagella
This type of cell is typically smaller.
Prokaryotes
Without this tool, the cell theory would never have developed.
What is the microscope
What is the function of the mitochondria?
produces energy (ATP) for cell activities
The central vacuole does this
stores water, nutrients, enzymes, etc
What is the function of the endoplasmic reticulum?
to transport molecules around the cell
Plant cells are this type of cell
Eukaryotic
Mattheis Schleiden propsed this
What is all plants are made of cells.
What is the function of the cell membrane?
provides a barrier between inside and outside of cell, controls what can enter and exit the cell
Name the three major organelles that plant cells have but animal cells do not.
cell wall
chloroplast
large central vacuole
What is a phospholipid bilayer
Name three structures prokaryotes and eukaryotes share.
ribosomes
DNA
cell membrane
cytoplasm
Robert Virchow and Theodor Schwann stated these things
What is all things come from pre-existing cells and animals are made of cells.
What is the function of the chloroplast?
produces food for the plant through photosynthesis
What is the name of the pigment found in the chloroplast? (hint- it begins with "chloro-" as well)
chlorophyll
What is the name of the part of the nucleus that makes ribosomes?
nucleolus
Name three structures that are found in eukaryotes but not prokaryotes.
mitochondria
lysosomes
vacuoles
ER- smooth and rough
Golgi bodies
nucleus
The cell theory states this.
1. all cells come from pre-existing cells
2. all living things are made of cells
3. the cell is the smallest unit of life
What is the function of ribosomes?
to make proteins
Why can't animal cells have cell walls?
cell walls would make the cells too rigid and animals wouldn't be able to move
What process is performed in the mitochondria?
cellular respiration
