100

Rigid layer that provides protection for plant cells.

Cell Wall 

100

Found only in PLANT cells.  Its purpose is photosynthesis.

Chloroplast.

100

Complex organelles that convert energy from food into a form that the cell can use.

Mitochondria

100

This is the recycling center of the cell. They digest foreign bacteria that invade the cell, rid the cell of toxic substances, and recycle worn-out cell components.

Lysosomes

100

Fluid that fills up the space inside the cell.

Cytoplasm

200

Protective phospholipid layer ALL cells have

Cell Membrane 

200

This type of cell has a cell wall, a large central vacuole and chloroplasts

plant cell

200

How does the shape of the plant cell differ from an animal cell?

Plant cells have a more rigid rectangular shape.

200

Makes Protein; ALL cells have these

Ribosome 

200

Serves as the cell’s command center, sending directions to the cell to grow, mature, divide, or die. It also houses DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid), the cell’s hereditary material.

Nucleus

300

Stores food, water, and waste; extra large in plant cells

Vacuole 

300

Tail like structure that functions in movement.

Cilia or Flagella 

300

Packages molecules processed by the endoplasmic reticulum to be transported out of the cell.

Golgi Apparatus

300

A tool used to view cells.

Microscope

300

He invented the first compound microscope. What is his first and last name? 

Robert Hooke

400

a web of proteins that gives shape and support to the cell

Microtubules or Cytoskeleton

400

Does not have ribosomes on it; Makes and stores lipids and transports them

Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum 

400

What structures are found in plant cells that are not found in animal cells?       

cell wall and chloroplasts 

400

These are tightly coiled pieces of DNA found in the nucleoplasm of the cell.

Chromosomes

400

This green pigment that absorbs solar energy. You can find it in the chloroplasts.

Chlorophyll
