1
Q

Nucleus

A

The nucleus runs the cell and controls the cell activity

2
Q

Plasma membrane

A

Regulates what enters and exits the cell

Path way

3
Q

Cytoplasm

A

Set a positive is a jellylike material that holds everything between the cell membrane in the nucleus, area where the most activity is taken place

4
Q

Endoplasmic reticulum

A

Canex the nucleus to other organelles, that’s where the ribosomes do their work

5
Q

Ribosomes

A

Produces proteins for the cell manufactured by the nucleolus

6
Q

Golgi apparatus

A

Stores protein for future use, this is where the ribosomes get packed up to get shipped out

7
Q

What is an organelle

A

An organelle is what is inside a cell and helps the cell do it’s job

8
Q

Lysosomes

A

Responsible for the breaking down of waste

Mostly found in animal cells

9
Q

Cytoskeleton

A

Gives the cell structure and shape, helps the cell keep its place

10
Q

Mitochondria

A

Changes food into energy, known as the powerhouse of the cell

11
Q

Chloroplast

A

Captures the energy from the sunlight and uses it to produce food for the cell, only in plant cells

12
Q

Cell wall

A

Surrounds and protects the cell, only found in plant cells

13
Q

Vacuoles

A

Stores food, water and chemicals for the cell

It’s bigger in plant cells,
small in animal cells

14
Q

List one organelle that is typically found in animal cells

A

Lysosomes

15
Q

What are three organelles that are different in plant cells compared to an animal cell

A

Large vacuoles, chloroplast, cell wall

16
Q

_______>cell>_______> organs>______>organism

A

Organelles, tissue, organ system

17
Q

Why do plant cells have chloroplasts, but animal cells do not have them

A

Animal cells can’t produce their own food on my plate cells which can

18
Q

What organelle is much larger and plant cells then animal cells

A

Vacuoles because plants carry more food than animals
