New cards

cell membrane

A semi-permeable membrane that encloses the contents of a cell. Both animal and plant cells have this.

14
New cards

Nucleus

Membrane bound organelle of eukaryotic cells where chromosomes are housed and replicated (DNA) Both animal and plant cells have this.

15
New cards

Lysosomes

Contained in the cytoplasm. Contains a number of enzymes that help in the digestion of substances in the cell. ANIMAL CELLS ONLY.

16
New cards

Endoplasmic reticulum (ER)

Membrane bound organelles that consist of sac like structures. They help in the production of proteins and liquid. Both animal and plant cells have this.

New cards

Golgi body

A flattened sac like structure which receives and processes proteins from the Endoplasmic Reticulum, and transports them to various locations. Both animal and plant cells have this.

New cards

Nucleus

Control center of the cell - DNA and chromosomes with genetic information

New cards

Cloroplast

Makes sugars and starches through photosynthesis

25
New cards

Photosynthesis

Plants use the sun's energy to convert water and carbon dioxide into sugars

26
New cards

Cell

The basic unit of structure and function in living things

27

too small to be seen except under a microscope

28
New cards

Organism

A living thing
