Plant Cell and Animal Cell

THREE BASIC PARTS OF THE CELL

1. Cell membrane
2. Nucleus
3. Cytoplasm
Cell Membrane
- Every Cell is surrounded by a cell membrane.
-It is sometimes called a plasma membrane.
-The cell membrane separates the cell from its external environment and from the
neighboring cells.

Nucleus
- The nucleus is the most important organelle (Little Body) within the cell. It
has two vital functions; to control the activities of the cell and to facilitate cell
division.
- This spherical organelle is usually located in or near the center of the cell.

Cytoplasm
- Cytoplasm is a sticky, semi fluid material found between the nucleus and the
cell membrane. Chemical analysis of the cytoplasm shows that it consists of
proteins , lipids, carbohydrates, minerals, salts and water.
The Cytoplasm and Organelles
Cytoplasm
-Jelly likesubstance found inside cell that acts as a medium for chemical reactions
within the cell.

Golgi Body (Apparatus)

- Packages the proteins made by the ribomes so they can be sent out of the
cell. The UPS store of the cell.
Mithocondria
- Powerhouse of the cell breaks down sugar molecules to release energy, site
of cellularrespiration, double membrane, self- replicating, contains own DNA,
cristae.
Vacuole
- Storage tanks can hold food, water or waste for the cell.
Ribosomes
- Makes proteins fo the cell, can be found attached to the endoplasmic
reticulum or free in the cytoplasm.
Endo Plasmic Reticulum (ER)
- Transportation network for the cell, moves materials around in the cell. Rough
Endoplasmic Reticulum that has ribosomes attached.
- Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum
Lysosomes
- Stomach of the cell Helps the cell digests food, waste and worn out cell
parts
Chloroplast
- A special plastid that contains chlorophyll a pigment that captures the suns
energy to produce glucose in a p[rocess called photosynthesis.
Cell Wall
- Protects and supports
