Parts of a Cell
This part of the cell contains DNA and controls cell functions.
What is the nucleus?
This type of tissue covers the surface of your body and lines internal organs.
What is epithelial tissue?
This is the smallest unit of life in all living organisms.
What is a cell?
The pink circles are
Ribosomes
This term refers to the outer layer of a plant cell that gives it structure and support.
What is the cell wall?
This gel-like substance inside the cell holds the organelles in place. Also, chemical reactions take place there.
What is the cytoplasm?
This tissue type helps to move parts of your body and maintain posture.
What is muscle tissue?
A group of similar cells that work together to perform a specific function.
What is a tissue?
The orange circle is
Nucleus
This organelle stores water, nutrients, and waste in plant cells.
What is the vacuole?
Known as the "powerhouse" of the cell, this organelle produces energy.
What is the mitochondria?
This tissue is responsible for transmitting electrical signals throughout the body.
What is nervous tissue?
Two or more tissues that work together to perform a specific function form this.
What is an organ?
The blue part is
Mitochondria
This type of cell lacks a nucleus and is typically smaller than eukaryotic cells.
What is a prokaryotic cell?
This part of the cell acts as a protective barrier, controlling what enters and exits the cell.
What is the cell membrane?
Bone and blood are examples of this tissue type.
What is connective tissue?
Multiple organs that work together make up this level of organization.
What is an organ system?
The yellow part is
Cytoplasm
The double-layered structure that surrounds the cell nucleus and contains pores.
What is the nuclear membrane?
Found in plant cells, this organelle is responsible for photosynthesis
What is the chloroplast?
This type of tissue supports and connects different parts of the body, providing structure.
What is connective tissue?
This is a complete living thing that can perform all life processes on its own.
What is an organism?
The jelly-like part of the cell is
Cytoplasm
This is the process by which cells use oxygen to produce energy from food.
What is cellular respiration?
