Write about your spring break. (AT LEAST ONE GOOD PARAGRAPH!)
What are the two main types of cells?

2. Two Cell Types

4. Eukaryotes: Have a NUCLEUS!

5. Cells Are made of organelles
Like little organs in cells, each with their own function

6. Cells Levels of Organization Atom  molecule  macromolecule 
organelle 
cell 
tissue 
organ 
organ system 
organism

7. Levels of Organization in Living Things
Carbon 
amino acid 
protein 
cell membrane 
muscle cell 
smooth muscle 
heart 
circulatory system 
human

8. Plasma Membrane Structure made of proteins and lipids (some carbs)
Function
- monitors substances moving in & out of cell
Found In
- all cells

9. Cytoplasm Structure semifluid (like jello), clear Function
- supports and protects organelles by holding them in place
allows medium for travel
Lots of chem reactions occur here
Found In
- All cells

10. Cytoskeleton
Structure - long, thin, protein fibers (microtubules/microfilaments) Function - moves organelles with the cell - helps maintain cell shape Found In - All eukaryotic cells

11. Nucleus Structure - largest organelle in the cell looks like a sphere
Does NOT have to be in the center
Function
Holds DNA and Nucleolus
Found In
- All eukaryotic cells

12. DNA Structure Double stranded Looks like twisted staircase
(double helix)
Function
Carries genetic material
Carries instructions for cellular activity
Found In
- All cells

13. CHROMOSOMES
Spools of DNA.

14. RNA Structure Single stranded Function Gets messages from DNA
Helps in protein synthesis
Found In
- All cells

15. Nucleolus
Structure - located inside of Nucleus Function - makes ribosomes Found In - All eukaryotic cells

16. Ribosomes
Structure - made of RNA and protein - can be attached to ER or floating in cytoplasm Function - makes proteins Found In - all cells: eukaryotes and prokaryotes

17. Endoplasmic Reticulum
Structure - folded sacs - 2 kinds: 1. Smooth ER - no ribosomes 2. Rough ER - ribosomes attached to it Function - moves materials within cells Found In - All eukaryotic cells

18. Golgi Apparatus Structure - flattened stacks (farther from nucleus)
Function
- modifies, sorts, and packages proteins into vesicles to transport out of cell (exocytosis)
Found In
- All eukaryotic cells

19. Vacuole
Structure - Membrane-bound vesicle Function - store food, water, enzymes, and waste Found In - Plant = have 1 vacuole, it is very LARGE - Animal = have very few vacuoles, they are small

20. Lysosomes Found In Structure - contains digestive enzymes Function
- digests excess organelles, food, bacteria, viruses
Found In
- Only animal cells

21. Centrioles Found in - Animal cells and most protist cells Structure
- near Nucleus
- made of microtubules
Function
- help cells make new cells (mitosis)
Found in
- Animal cells and most protist cells

22. Mitochondria Structure - sac with inner membrane folds (cristae)
Function
- convert food (mostly sugars) into energy
(cellular respiration)
Found In
- All eukaryotic cells

23. MITOCHONDRIAN

24. Chloroplasts Structure - contain chlorophyll (makes it green) Function
- captures light and converts into energy (glucose) using photosynthesis
Found In
- Only plant cells

25. PLANT CELL

26. ANIMAL CELLS These cells are stained with methylene blue - which is why they look purple.
PLANT CELLS You can see lots of chloroplasts…. Ready to help with some photsynthesis!

27. Cell Wall Structure - thick, rigid fibers outside of plasma membrane
made of cellulose (plants), chitin
(fungi), or peptidoglycan (bacteria)
Function
-protects and provides extra support to cell
Found In
- Plant cells, fungi cells, and some prokaryotes

28. Cilia Structure - many short hairs on the surface of the cell Function
- helps the cell move -like a rowboat
- helps the cell feed (eat)
Found In
Some animal cells, some protist cells, and some prokaryotes

29. Flagella Structure - long, tail or whip-like, - 1 or 2 tails Function
helps the cell move
helps the cell feed (eat)
Found In
- Some animal cells, some prokaryotes, & some plant cells

30. Animal Cell Cytoplasm Golgi Apparatus Ribosomes Nucleus Mitochondria
Cilia
Flagella
Lysosome
Cell Membrane
-Vacuole
-Centrioles
-Cytoskeleton
-Nucleolus
-Endoplasmic Reticulum

31. Plant Cell Cell Membrane Cytoplasm Golgi Apparatus Ribosomes Nucleus
Mitochondria
Vacuole

Endoplasmic Reticulum

33. VIRUSES
I am NOT MADE OF CELLS!!
