Plant and Animal Cells
(Text pages 10-13)

2. Big Idea
What are the similarities and differences between plant and animal cells
What are the important parts of plant and animal cells

4. Plant Cells

5. Animal Cells

6. Cell Structures found in both plant and animal cells
Cell structures are called organelles

7. 1. Nucleus:
control centre (brain), controls all activities in the cell
Eukaryotic cells: nucleus with a nuclear membrane (plant and animal)
Prokaryotic cells: no nuclear membrane (bacteria, viruses)

10. 2. chromosomes Inside of nucleus Contains genes (genetic information)
Genes are made of DNA
Construction plans

13. 3. Cell (or plasma) membrane
Surrounds cell
Gate keeper (controls what goes in and out of cell)
Made of a double layer of fat cells

15. 4. Cytoplasm
Watery fluid
Holds organelles in place
Transport

16. 5. Vacuole Filled with fluid (water, nutrients, waste)
Storage for the cell
Very large in plant cells (used for stability as well)

17. Structures only found in Animal cells
6. Some animal cells have flagellum (whip like tail) and cilia (hairs)
Help cell move around

19. Structures only found in Plant Cells
7. Cell wall
Protects and supports plant cell
Gases, water and some minerals can pass through
Cell wall

20. 8. chloroplasts Food factories for the plant cell
Contain chlorophyll for photosynthesis
