Study Notes
Plant Cell Diagram
- The diagram shows a plant cell with various labeled parts.
- Key components include chloroplasts, mitochondria, cell membrane, cell wall, nucleus, and large vacuole.
- Chloroplasts are green organelles responsible for photosynthesis.
- Mitochondria are organelles that produce energy for the cell.
- The cell membrane surrounds the cell and regulates what enters and leaves.
- The cell wall provides support and structure to the plant cell.
- The nucleus controls the cell's activities and contains the genetic material.
- A large vacuole is a fluid-filled sac that stores water and nutrients.
Animal Cell Diagram
- The diagram shows an animal cell with various labeled parts.
- Key components include nucleus, mitochondria, cytoplasm, and cell membrane.
- The nucleus controls the cell's activities and contains the DNA.
- Mitochondria are the powerhouses of the cell; they produce energy.
- Cytoplasm is the jelly-like substance filling the cell.
- The cell membrane separates the cell from its surroundings and controls transport.
