Organelles
This organelle is found in both plant and animal cells and controls the movement of substances to go in and out of the cell.
What is the cell membrane.
Found in plant cells but not animal cells and provides protection for the cell.
What is the cell wall.
Do both animal and plant cells have ribosomes?
True
What organelle makes protein?
What are ribosomes.
Identify the lens called where you look into a microscope.
What is an ocular lens.
This large organelle makes proteins (messengers) for the cell that help with cellular and bodily functions.
What is the rough ER.
Plant cells have this organelle to convert light energy into chemical (food energy) for the plant.
What is the chloroplast.
False. Only plant cells have a cell wall.
What organelle makes ribosomes?
What is a nucleolus.
Name the part of the microscope called that holds slides.
What is a stage.
This water filled organelle is essential for maintaining the plant cell with nutrients and hydration.
What is the large vacuole.
This is found in both animal cells and plant cells. It helps to control the functions of the cell, while also containing DNA.
What is the nucleus.
All cells have large vacuoles.
False. Only the plant cell does - just one large vacuole.
What organelle protects the outside layer of the cell?
What is a cell membrane.
Name the lenses called that you use for increasing magnification.
What are the objective lenses.
This small organelle is often referred to as the factory worker making proteins.
What are ribosomes.
This is found in both animal and plant cells, but plant cells use this to store energy created through photosynthesis, while animal cells use this to distribute energy after converting chemical (food) energy.
What are mitochondria.
Animal and plant cells have a nucleus?
True.
What organelles breaks down food, waste and old cell parts?
What is a lysosome.
The names of the two focus knobs on the microscope for viewing cells more clearly?
What are the coarse adjustment and fine adjustment knobs.
What is the cytoplasm.
Only present in animal cells, they use these to break down waste.
What are lysosomes.
Mitochondria are the energy centres of the cell?
True.
What organelle sorts proteins and packages them into vesicles?
What is a golgi apparatus.
The five characteristics of living things.
What are:
1. Need energy
2. Reproduce
3. Grow
4. Produce waste
5. Respond/adapt to their environment
