1. Cell Comparisons Plant vs Animal Cells

2. Prokaryotic Cells Bacteria and Archaebacteria ONLY
NO Nucleus! DNA is free floating
NO organelles!
All chemical reactions occur in the cytoplasm
Cell Membrane and Cell Wall

3. Eukaryotic Cells Multicellular: Plants and Animals
Unicellular: Protists and Algae
Chemical reactions occur in specialized organelles
DNA contained within a nucleus

4. Eukaryotic Cells: Plants

5. Eukaryotic Cells: Animals

6. Eukaryotic Cells: Cell Wall
Plants
Nonliving layer
Found outside the membrane
Provides structure and support
Found in plants & bacteria
Animals
NO cell wall present!

7. Eukaryotic Cells: Vacuoles
Plants
Single large vacuole
Holds water
Helps give shape to cells
Animals
Lots of small ones
May help with movement (protists)

8. Eukaryotic Cells: Energy Source
Plants
Chloroplasts
Contain chlorophyll
Capture light energy and convert it to food energy
Animals
Mitochondria
Transform energy stored in food into ATP

9. Eukaryotic Cells: Plant vs Animal
Plants
Cell wall AND cell membrane
Chloroplast
One large central vacuole
Animals
No cell wall
Mitochondria
Several small vacuoles
