1. Cells The Basic Unit of Life

2. Animal Cell

3. Parts of the Cell (Organelles)
Nucleus – contain the genetic material (DNA)
Nucleolus – makes ribosomes
ER (Endoplasmic Reticulum) – produces horomones
- there are 2 kinds: Rough and Smooth ER

4. Ribosomes – make protein, move from nucleolus to ER
Golgi Apparatus – packages molecules to move around cell
Vacuole – helps in cell digestion and releases wastes

5. Cell Membrane – holds the cell together
- lets things move in and out of the cell
Mitochandria – produces the cell’s energy
- site of cellular respiration (breaking down glucose)
Centriole – help the cell to divide

6. Plant Cell

7. Parts of a Plant Cell (Organelles)
Most of the organelles are the same for both plant and animal cells, except for:
Vacuole – takes up most of space in plant cell and collects water

8. Chloroplast – contains chloroplast (green)
where photosynthesis takes place
Cell wall – found only in plant cells
protects cell and keeps its shape
