5 6 Plant and Animal Cells Organelles
Organelles 1. Cell wall - 2. Cell membrane - 3. Nucleus - 4. Cytoplasm - 5. Endoplasmic Reticulum - 6. Golgi Bodies - 7. Ribosomes - 8. Mitochondria - 9. Vacuoles - 10. Lysosomes - 11. Chloroplasts - 6 Use the full “Basic” definition from iCell. Use 2 pages in journal if necessary.

Inside the Cell
3
Cell Trivia An adult has approx. 60 trillion cells
Each of your eyes has 125 million light sensitive cells that are connected to 1 million nerve cells When you donate blood, you give up 5.4 billion cells A square cm of your skin is made up of 155,000 cells. There are 30 billion cells in your brain.

Cells in organisms are specialized to perform particular functions
Cell Function Cells in organisms are specialized to perform particular functions Red blood cells transport oxygen throughout the body. Muscle cells contract and relax to move parts of the body. Guard cells control the opening and closing of stomata on the underside of leaves to let in air.
5
Levels of Organization
Cell Tissue Organ Organ System Organism
6
Inside the Cell Organelles
7
Inside the Cell Organelles A structure within a cell that performs a specific function.
8
Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic
Two types of cells: Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Prokaryotic (pro-carry-au-tic) Single cell organisms that do not have a nucleus Bacteria Eukaryotic (you-carry-au-tic) Plant and animal cells Has a nucleus and organelles
9
1. Cell Membrane Controls what enters and leaves the cell
Thin; surrounds the cell
10
2. Cytoplasm A watery gel material that fills the cell and keeps organelles in place
11
Mitochondria Converts sugars into energy for the cell
(plural for mitochondrion) Converts sugars into energy for the cell Powerhouse of the cell 11
12
4. Nucleus Controls cell’s activities The “Brains” of the cell
Contains the chromosomes
13
Chromosomes In nucleus Made of DNA
Contain instructions for traits & characteristics
14
5. Endoplasmic Reticulum
Makes, packages and delivers ribosome and lipids Ribosomes are the protein makers Folds and tubes located by the nucleus
15
Golgi Apparatus (or Golgi Bodies) Modify, sort and package proteins & lipids into vesicles for storage or secretion (for outside of the cell) Flattened membranes stacked together
16
7. Lysosomes Contains digestive enzymes
Breaks down food, viruses, bacteria, old organelles, etc.
17
8. Vacuoles Stores food, water & wastes
Larger in plant cell than in animal cell Helps plants maintain their shape
18
9. Chloroplast Found only in PLANT cells.
Convert light energy into sugars & starch Green, contains chlorophyll
19
10. Cell Wall Thick, tough layer; surrounds cell
Provides support and protection Found only in PLANT cells
20
Cilia & Flagella Movement Cilia – Many hairlike extensions
Flagella - Whip-like tail or long projections
