Organelles
This is the smallest organelle in a cell and produces proteins
What is the ribosome?
This is WHERE the chlorophyll are in a plant cell.
Chloroplast
Eukaryotic cells that normally are just surrounded by a membrane
What is an animal cell?
FALSE: it needs to have ALL 6 to be considered alive.
The "brain" of the cell...directs the cell and holds genetic information.
Nucleus
Eukaryotic cell that contains a cell wall and is typically green.
What is a plant cell.
List 3 of the 6 characteristics of life and what they mean.
Could be any of these:
-made of cells
-growth & development
-reproduction
-energy use
-respond to stimuli / environment
-chemicals of life
Name 2 differences between a plant and animal cell.
Answers vary:
-Different sized vacuoles
-cell wall on plant cell, not on animal
-Green/not green
-Shape
This is the green pigment only in PLANT CELLS.
CHLOROPHYLL
State the 3 parts of the Cell Theory.
1. All living things are made of cells
2. All cells come from previous cells.
3. Cells are the basic unit of life.

What kind of cell are you? Plant or animal
Animal
A large organelle that stores liquids or in plants water.
What is a vacuole?
Cells make up ______________
Tissues
What does non-living mean? Give an example.
Something that never had and never will have the 6 characteristics of life. Examples: water, sun, dirt, rocks
The inside of the animal cell that everything is floating in.
What is cytoplasm?
Organelles that make energy for the cell.
What is the mitochondria?
The organelle that holds a Eukaryotic cell's genetic material or DNA. "Brain"
What is the nucleus?
What is the shape of a plant cell?
"Box-like" / brick shaped
What is the difference between a PROkaryote and EUkaryotic cell? Give an example of each.
PROkaryote: a cell/organism that does not have a nucleus or cells without a nucleus (bacteria)
Eukaryote: YOU are a eukaryote...you have nuclei in your cells (plant/animal cells)
If a cell is getting poisoned with chemicals coming into it that should not be there, what organelle is not doing it's job?
Cell membrane: it is like a screen; it keeps out bad things and lets the good in.
