Name the 5 things in a animal cell.
cytoplasm, mitochondria, cell membrane, Ribosome, Nucleus
Name the 8 things in a animal cell.
cytoplasm, mitochondria, cell membrane, Ribosome, Nucleus, cell wall, chloroplast, Vacuole
what is the function of the cytoplasm?
Where enzymes and other proteins are made. Location of reactions in anaerobic respiration.
what is the function of the Nucleus ?
contains DNA which carries the genetic code for making enzymes and other proteins used in chemical reactions such as photosynthesis and respiration.
what is the function of the cell membrane ?
Allows gases and water to diffuse freely into and out of the cell. Controls the transport of other molecules.
what is the function of the Mitochondrion (plural is mitochondria) ?
Contains enzymes for the reactions in aerobic respiration (in animals, plants and yeast).
what is the function of the Ribosome ?
Where amino acids are joined together to make a protein.
what is the function of the Chloroplast ?
Contains the green pigment, chlorophyll, which absorbs light for photosynthesis, and the enzymes needed for photosynthesis.
what is the function of the cell wall ?
Made from cellulose fibres. Strengthens the cell and supports the plant.
what is the function of the Vacuole ?
Filled with cell sap to help support the cell.
What is yeat an example of ?
Fungi
Yeast is a _____ celled fungi.
single
Name the 6 things in a yeast cell.
cytoplasm, mitochondria, cell membrane, Ribosome, Nucleus, cell wall
what do plant cells an yeast cells have in common ?
Like plants, they have a cell wall
what is the difference between plant cells an yeast cells ?
unlike plants, yeast cells are unable to make their own food.
what do animal cells an yeast cells have in common ?
Like animals, yeast cells take in chemicals from their environment. These chemicals are respired to provide energy.
Name two things humans use yeast cells for ?
brewing and baking. Brewing uses anaerobic respiration. Baking uses aerobic respiration.
What is a Eukaryotes cell ?
Eukaryotes are organisms whose cells contain a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles.
What is a Prokaryotes cell ?
Prokaryotes are organisms whose cells lack a nucleus and other organelles
what type of cells are Eukaryotes ?
Cells of animals, plants and fungi are called eukaryotic cells
what type of cells are Prokaryotes ?
Cells of bacteria are called prokaryotic cells
Photosynthesis is …..
During photosynthesis, carbon dioxide reacts with water to produce glucose and oxygen.
What is the equation for phoyosynthesis ?
6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2
What's the name of the chemical that traps sunlight inside plant cells?
Chlorophyll
