1
New cards

Cytoplasm

Gel like substance inside the cell it’s a expensive organelles and provides an environment for chemical reactions within the cell

2
New cards

Cell membrane

Found in all cells, prokaryotic and eukaryotic it controls what enters and leaves the cell maintains cell homeostasis, which is the site of cell transport

3
New cards

Ribosomes

It’s location is floating in the side of plasm and on the endoplasmic reticulum it’s function is that it makes proteins

4
New cards

Nucleus

Location is in eukaryotic cell cells, including plants and animals. Its genetic information called DNA and contains nucleolus that makes ribosomes

5
New cards

Mitochondria

All eukaryotic cells it creates energy called ATP and is a site of cellular respiration

6
New cards

Golgi bodies

Location is in all eukaryotic cells it modifies sources and ships proteins and it can send proteins within or outside the cell

7
New cards

Cytoskeleton

A network of proteins found throughout the cell it provides structure for cells and movement of organelles

8
New cards

Rough endoplasmic reticulum

It’s rough because of ribosomes and it makes and transports proteins

9
New cards

Smooth endoplasmic reticulum

It makes lipids and membranes. It also detoxifies (liver) and stores calcium (muscle)

10
New cards

chloroplast

Location is plant cell. It’s the site of photosynthesis and uses the sons energy to produce food.

11
New cards

Central vacuole

Location is plant cell it’s function is that it stores water and helps maintain plant shape

12
New cards

Cell wall

Rigid support structure and it’s found outside of the cell membrane

13
New cards

Lysosome

Location is an animal cell. It’s just bacteria and viruses and recycles old cell parts.

14
New cards

Centrosome

Location is animal cell. It creates spindle fibers which helps with cell division.

15
New cards

vacuole- different from the central vacuole

Location, animal cells it stores cell materials, waste, water

16
New cards

What is the main difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells?

Eukaryotic cells have a membrane, bound nucleus, and complex organelles like mitochondria and Golgi. While, the prokaryotic cells lack these.

17
New cards

Name three organelles found in plant cells, but not an animal cell

Cell wall, chloroplast, and a large central vacuole

18
New cards

What is the primary function of the mitochondria?

To generate most of the cell supply of ATP maintain energy currency through cellular respiration
