    Study Notes

    Cell Wall

    • Only found in plant cells, formed on the outside of the cell membrane
    • Consists of a network of cellulose fibers
    • Lends support and shape to the plant cell

    Cytoplasm

    • Consists of the ground plasm and the cell membrane
    • Cell membrane is selectively permeable and controls the passage of substances into and out of the cell

    Ground Plasm

    • Liquid contents of the cell, consisting of various solutions
    • Salts and gases are dissolved in the ground plasm
    • Organelles, oil droplets, and protein granules are found in the ground plasm
    • More liquid in the central part of the cell, making it easier for particles and organelles to float around
    • More jelly-like near the cell membrane
    • Site of chemical processes, including metabolism

    Cell Organelles

    • Chloroplasts are found only in plant cells and are responsible for photosynthesis
    • Contain the green pigment chlorophyll, which traps radiant energy from the sun and converts it to chemical potential energy
    • During photosynthesis, water and carbon dioxide are used to form glucose and oxygen is released
