1 Structure and Function of Cells

2 Cell Membrane Outer Shell of the Cell
Separates the cell from the external environment Regulates what comes into and out of the cell Security system of the cell

3

4 Cytoplasm Jelly Like mixture
Contains molecules and small cell parts(organelles) Contains enzymes to drive chemical reactions

5

6 DNA Long molecule containing information Controls cells activities
Mutations can cause irregular cell division Complex instructions

7

8 Nucleus Controls cells activities Stores DNA Large, Round/Oval Shape
Is made up of the following parts: Nuclear Membrane DNA Nucleolus In both Plant and Animal Cells

9 Nuclear Membrane Surrounds Nucleus Selectively Permeable
Controls what moves into and out of the nucleus Both Plant and Animal Cells

10 Nucleolus Found inside the nucleus Creates Ribosomes
Both Plant and Animal Cells

11

12 Mitochondrion (Mitochondria)
Bean shaped with inner membranes Breaks down sugar molecules into energy Both Plant and Animal Cells

13

14 Ribosome Small bodies that are free within the cell or attached to E.R. Produce Proteins Created by the Nucleolus Both Plant and Animal Cells

15

16 Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)
Network of tubes or membranes Carries materials through the cell Smooth and Rough ER Rough ER have Ribosome attached Both plant and animal cells

17

18 Vacuole Fluid-filled sacs Store food, water, waste
Plants store large amounts of food, have large vcacuoles Both Plant and Animal Cells

19

20 Golgi Bodies Packages proteins for transport Tubes and membranes
Thought of as UPS or Post Office of the cell

21

22 Lysosome Small, round with a membrane
Breaks down larger food molecules into smaller pieces Digests old cell parts Uncommon in Plants, common in Animal Cells

23

24 Plant Cell Parts Parts that are common only in Plant cells include:
Cell Wall Chloroplast Chlorophyll

25 Cell Wall Outer Layer of Plant Cell Rigid, strong Made of cellulose
Provides Support, Protection Allows H2O, O2, CO2 to pass into and out of cell

26

27 Chloroplast Green, oval
Uses energy from sun to make food for the plant Contain Chlorophyll

28

29 Chlorophyll Very small, round, green Provide pigment to the plant
Used during photosynthesis
