5. A. CELL THEORY 1) All living things are made of one or more cells.
2) Cells are the basic unit of structure and function in living things.
3) Living cells come only from other living cells.

6. C) ANIMAL VS. PLANT CELLS:
No Cell wall
Cell wall
Small Vacuoles
Large Vacuoles
Large
No Chloroplasts
Chloroplasts

7. D) SOME CELL TERMS & STRUCTURES:
1) ORGANELLES:
tiny organs in the cell.
2) CYTOPLASM:
fluid filling inside the cell membrane.
makes up the majority of cell’s mass.

8. Organelles
Cytoplasm

9. controls movement of materials into and out of the cell
3) CELL MEMBRANE
controls movement of materials into and out of the cell
holds cell together
Cell membrane
Animal Cell

10. 4) CELL WALL found in plant cells not animal cells
provides strength and support for plant cells.
made of cellulose (long chains of sugar molecules)

11. Cell wall
Plant Cell
Cell membrane

12. E) ORGANELLES OF CELLS:
1) Nucleus:
the control center of the cell
stores DNA
(a) nucleolus - dark spot inside the nucleus, which makes ribosomes.

13. (b). nuclear membrane - controls. movement of materials in and
(b) nuclear membrane - controls movement of materials in and out of nucleus.
(c) DNA - stores information for making proteins

15. 2) RIBOSOME
tiny grain like particles usually found along the E.R.
proteins are made here
Ribosome
Proteins
Amino acids

16. 3) Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER):
makes lipids
the delivery system of the cell for compounds such as proteins through its tubular connections.

18. Mitochondria 4) Mitochondria: the “Power House” of the cell
Outer membrane
Inner membrane
chloroplast
4) Mitochondria:
the “Power House” of the cell
releases energy packets of ATP for use in the cell.

19. Mitochondria

20. Chloroplast 5) Chloroplast: “Solar Panels” for capturing energy
Outer membrane
Inner membrane
5) Chloroplast:
“Solar Panels” for capturing energy
they use energy from sunlight to make food in plant cells (i.e. glucose).

23. Animal Cell Plant Cell Vacuole 6) Vacuole: “Storage Tanks” of the cell
store water, food and waste.

24. Golgi complex 7) Golgi body:
Animal Cell
7) Golgi body:
packages and transports materials out of the cell.

25. Lysosome 8) Lysosome: “Clean-up and Recycling Crew”
Vesicle with food
Animal Cell
Lysosome
8) Lysosome:
“Clean-up and Recycling Crew”
digest food particles, wastes, cell parts, and foreign invaders.
