Study Notes
- Each organelle carries a specific function necessary for the cell to survive.
- Organelles might represent companies, places or parts of the city because they each have their similar jobs.
- Organelles need to work together for it to function smoothly.
Cell Membrane
- Controls what goes in and out of cell.
Nucleus
- Contains Cells and DNA.
- Tells the cell what to do.
Ribosomes
- Involved in the process of making membrane protein synthesis.
- Makes protein and genetic info.
Cytosol Cytoplasm Alls Cell endoplasmic reticulum
Translation
Eukaryotes Plant cells
Cell Wall
- Provides structure, shape and protection.
- Made from cellulose.
Cell Membrane
- Keeps cells together.
- Lets some substances in and out of cell.
Nucleus
- Carries DNA and genes.
Cytosol
- Fills cell between the membrane and organelles.
- Contains dissolved substances needed by the cell.
Vacuole
- Stores substances mostly water.
- Bigger.
Chloroplast
- Contains chlorophyll, the site of photosynthesis.
- Uses sunlight to convert carbon dioxide to glucose (energy).
Mitochondria
- Powerhouse.
- Generates energy to power cells through cellular respiration.
Cytoplasm
Cytosol
-
Solid shape.
-
All cells have a membrane, cytoplasm, DNA (chromosome), and ribosomes.
-
Plant and fungal cells are boxy.
-
Animal cells have irregular shapes.
Cellular respiration
- Light to glucose to energy.
- Chloroplast to mitochondria.
- Cytosol is the liquid inside.
Vacuole
- Fuel from glucose and stores usable energy.
- Breaks down things.
- Animals each food to get glucose, then the mitochondria break it down
