Answer 6

nucleus and organelles, they can be unicellular or multicellular (plants fungi, animals)

Question 7

what do plant cells have

Answer 7

cell wall (rigid wall coating the outside of the cell made of cellulose), cell membrane (inside the cell wall), nucleus (contains genetic material), the vacuole (large space filled with liquid called cell sap), cytoplasm (liquid/gel that fills the insde of the cell), chloroplasts (contains green chemical called chlorophyll –> allows plants to use sun energy), mitochondria (provide cells with energy for function), ribosomes (where proteins are made)

Question 8

what do animal cells have

Answer 8

cell wall (coating outside the cell), nucleus (contains genetic material), cytoplasm (liquid/gel that fills the insde of the cell), mitochondria (provide cells with energy for function), ribosomes (where proteins are made)

Question 9

what do bacterial cells have

Answer 9

prokaryote cell

cell wall (rigid wall coating the outside of the cell made of cellulose), cell membrane (inside the cell wall), ribosomes (where proteins are made), circular stand of DNA/nucleoid (contains all the genes), plasmids (extra genes), flagella (propels bacteria), cytoplasm (liquid/gel that fills the insde of the cell)
