Organ system
Organisms
Describe the structure of an organell
Subcellular structure
Describe the structure of a cell
Multiple organelles make up to be a cell.
Describe the structure of a organ
A group of tissues working together to performe specific function.
Describe the structure of an organ system
A group of organs that coordinate to performe related functions.
Describe the structure of an organism
Multiple organs working together to make a living thing.

What does multiple organs working together make?
Organisms
Name the cell structure of the animal cell
A) nucleus
B) cytoplasm
C) cell membrane
D) mitrochondria
E) ribosomes
Name the cell structure of a plant cell
A) nucleus
B) cytoplasm
C) cell membrane
D) mitrochondria
E) cell wall
F) vacuole
G) chloroplasts
What is the function of the Nucleus
It controls the cell and contains DNA
What is the function of the cytoplasm
The site of all chemical reactions
What is the function of the cell membrane
It controls what enters and leaves the cell
What is the function of the cell wall
To keep the structure of the cell.
What is the function of the chloroplast
Contains chlorophll for photosynesis
What is the function of the vacuole
Storage of sap ( sugar + water )
What is the function of the mitochondria
The site of aerobic respiration
What is the function of ribosome
To make proteins
What are the similarities between animal and plant cells
They both have:
Cell membrane
Nucleus
Cytoplasm
Mitochondria
Ribosomes
What are the differences between plant and animal cells
Only a plant cell has a cell wall, a vacuole, and chloroplasts, an animal does not have these.
What is cell differentation (stem cells)
Cell differentation is the process by which a cell changes to become specillised for its job.
