Cells Flashcards
(29 cards)
What is in a prokaryotes
Nucleoid, small and simple
What is in a euckaryotes
Nucleus, complex
What is in both prokaryotes cells and euckaryotes
Cytoplasm, DNA, cell, membrane, cytoskeleton, ribosome
What is in a plant cell
Large central vacuole, nucleus off to side, cell wall, chloroplast
What is in a animal cell
Many small vacuoles, centrioles, large nucleus in the center
What is in both plant and animal cells
Mitochondria, cytoplasm, Golgi apparatus, ribosomes, cell membrane
3 similarities between prokaryotic and euckaryotic cells
DNA, ribosomes, plasma membrane
3 differences between prokaryotic and euckaryotic cells
Nucleus, organelles, size- euckaryotic are larger
Regulates what enters and leaves the cell; acts as a barrier- surrounds the cell- all three cells
Cell membrane
Organelles are suspended in this fluid-like substance; helps organelles move and grow - background of cell- all three
Cytoplasm
Controls the cell’s daily functions- cytoplasm - euckaryotic
Nucleus
Contains genetic information- nucleus
Chromosomes
Produces ribosomes- nucleus
Nucleolus
Protects the nucleus; contains nuclear pores- surrounds the nucleus
Nuclear membrane
Acts as a roadway in which substances can travel
throughout the cell - cytoplasm of the cell- by the nucleus- plant and animal
ER
Proteins are made on the ribosomes - cytoplasm of the cell sometimes attached to the ER
Ribosomes
Contain powerful digestive enzymes to break
down old or foreign cell parts- cytoplasm
Lysosomes
Packages and delivers proteins to parts of the cell - cytoplasm
Golgi apparatus
Organelle where cellular respiration occurs; makes
ATP (cellular energy) - cytoplasm
Mitochondria
Stores waste; in plant cells stores water- cytoplasm
Vacuole
Aids in cell division
Cell- Throughout the
cytoplasm of the- only animals have them
Centriole
Protects cell; maintains cell shape; maintains
homeostasis- outside cell membrane in plant/ bacteria cells
Cell wall
vests energy from the sun to produce glucose-Plant cells (or other
photosynthetic cells) - just plants
Chloroplast
Discovered a cell
