eukaryotic cells

cells found in plants and animals that contains a nucleus

2
New cards

prokaryotic cells

cells found in bacteria that doesn’t contain a nucleus

organelles

specialised structure found inside a cell

carries out specific functions

9
New cards

things that both animal and plant cells have

ribosomes

cell membrane

mitochondria

nucleus

cytoplasm

10
New cards

nucleus

contains DNA of the cell

controls activity of the cell

11
New cards

cytoplasm

where chemical reactions happens

contains enzymes

12
New cards

cell membrane

a partially permeable barrier that surrounds the cell

controls what enters and leave the cell

13
New cards

mitochondria

the site of aerobic reactions or respiration

provides energy for the cell

14
New cards

ribosomes

site of protein synthesis

15
New cards

chloroplasts

where photosynthesis takes place

provides food for plants

16
New cards

vacuole

contains cell sap

improves cell’s rigidity

17
New cards

cell wall

an outer layer made of cellulose

it strengthens the cell

18
New cards

plasmids

small rings for DNA

it codes for extra genes

19
New cards

flagella

long tail attached to bacteria

allows them to move
