(11 cards)
Parts of an animal cell
Cell membrane,cytoplasm,nucleus,mitochondria,
ribosomes
Parts found only in a plant cell
Cellulosw cell wall,large permanent vacuole,chloroplast
How to calculate orders of magnitude
Bigger number/smaller number
How can you see the ultrastructure of a cell
An electron microscope
What is the nucleus(detailed)
Controls all activities of the cell
Contains genes on chromosomes to make protiens for building new cells or organisms
Avg. diameter 10micro units
What is cytoplasm(detailed)
Liquid gel where most chemical reactions in the cell occur for life to take place
What is the cell membrane(detailed)
Controls the passage of substances in and out of the cell including the movement of some like hormones or urea
What are the mitochondria(detailed :D)
Structures in the cytoplasm where aerobic respiration takes place(releases energy for the cell)
1-2 micro units =length
0.2-0.7 micro units=diameter
What are the ribosomes
Where protien synthesis takes place
Makes all the protiens needed for the cell
What organism shares similiar strcuture to plant cells
(What do they share)
Algae
Chloroplast and cell walls
What kingdom are algae part of
The protista
