Animal & Plant Cells

Outer layer of plant cells

cell wall

Site of protein production

ribosome

Cells that have a nucleus and membrane bound organelles

eukaryotic

Supports & protects the organelles; made of cytosol & cytoskeleton

cytoplasm

Breaks down large food particles, cell parts, etc.

lysosome

Genetic information used to make proteins

DNA/chromatin

Converts food into usable energy

mitochondrion

Uses the sun's energy to make food (glucose)

chloroplast

Helps make lipids

smooth endoplasmic reticulum

Location where ribosomes are made

nucleolus

Small structures with specific functions inside the cell

organelles

Pull chromosome pairs apart during cell division (mitosis)

centrioles

Moves the cell; tail-like structure

flagellum

Location where DNA (chromatin) is located

nucleus

Sorts proteins & lipids, places them in vesicles that are sent to other areas of the cell

Golgi apparatus/ Golgi body

Surrounds EVERY cell's cytoplasm

cell membrane

Carry material within & outside the cell; sacs

vesicle

All cells that have no nucleus

prokaryotic

Stores items such as food, water, & waste

vacuole

Helps make proteins

rough endoplasmic reticulum

Main function of the cell membrane

selects what passes in & out of the cell

Means that some things can pass through easily, while other things can't

semipermeable or selectively permeable

Ribosomes are found in these two locations

rough endoplasmic reticulum & cytoplasm

Chloroplast convert _________________ into ___________________

sun's energy, food (glucose sugar)

Mitochondria convert __________ into __________

food (glucose sugar), usable energy (ATP)

Cell wall is made of this

cellulose

Cell membrane is a double membrane of this

phospholipid bilayer

Cell parts found ONLY in plant cells

cell wall
chloroplasts
large central vacuole

Animal cell shape depends on this

function of the cell

Functions of the cell wall include these

gives cells their shape, protection & support

Size & number of vacuoles in animal cells

small, 0 to a few

Name of the vacuole found in plant cells

central vacuole

Typical plant cell shape

rectangular or boxy

Process that happens in the chloroplasts

photosynthesis

Process that happens in the mitochondria

cellular respiration

Lysosomes use _____________ to break down things in the cell

digestive enzymes
