Are the sub units of living things
Types of cells
Yeast, Plant, Animal, Bacteria, Fungi
Nucleus
Red blood cells and Bacteria don’t have
Nucleus (What it does)
Controls cells activities
Permanent Vacuole
Only found in plant cells, Contains a salt/Sugar solution, gives structure and rigidity to plant cell(s)
Cytoplasm
The jelly body of the cell, Chemical reactions occur here
Cell wall
Plant cells only, Made of cellulose fibers gives shape and rigidity to the cell
Chloroplast
Plant cells only, Contains Chlorophyll which traps sunlight allowing the plant to photosynthesise
Cell Membrane
Outer covering selectively permeable allowing some substances in and out of the cell
Bacteria (how its useful)
Bacteria in milk changes the sugar lactose to lactic acid which turns the milk sour going into solids and liquids solids are curds that help make cheese
