eukaryotic cells

Are animal cells eukaryotic or prokaryotic

Animal cells are eukaryotic

What are vacuoles?

Fluid filled compartments. Animal cells have smaller ones while plant cells have larger

What is the smooth ER? What is its function?

Endoplasmic reticulum without ribosomes. Responsible for lipid and carb synthesis

What is the nucleolus? What is it's function?

A dense structure made of protein and nucleic acid. Responsible for ribosome synthesis

Ribosomes

Small structures. Can be free in the cytoplasm or connected to the ER

Golgi apparatus

Disc shaped sacks stacked on each other. Modifies, packages, and ships of proteins

Lysosome

Sac bounded by a membrane. Contains enzymes for metabolism

Nuclear pore

A hole in the nuclear membrane for communication

Nuclear membrane

Double layered

Cytoplasm

Everything inside the cell except the nucleus

Cell membrane

Lipid bilayer made of proteins. Regulates passage of materials

Centrioles

Associated with nuclear division. Acts as spindle fibers

Mitochondria

Site of cell respiration

Starch granule

Carb storage

Chloroplast

Site for photosynthesis

Cell wall

Structure outside cell membrane. Responsible for cell structure

Four structures present in plant cells but not animals

-chloroplasts

-starch granules

-large vacuole

-cell wall

Four membrane bound organelles plant and animal cells have in common

-mitochonrida

-nucleus

-endoplasmic rectilium

-golgi apparatus

Features to identify a plant cell

-cell wall

-chloroplasts

-brick shape

Red blood cell vs white blood cell

Red- smaller, no nucleus

White- larger, nucleus
