PLANT AND ANIMAL CELLS

Your PaperParts Function

Cell Theory:

• All organisms are made up of one or more cells.

• The cell is the basic unit of organization of all organisms.

• All cells come from other cells all ready in existence.

CELL WALL: PLANT

• Function: Gives the cell most of its support and structure

• A thick, rigid membrane that surrounds a plant cell

• PLANTS ONLY

CELL MEMBRANE

• Function:Semi permeable, allowing some substances to pass into the cell and blocking others.

• Thin layer of protein and fat that surrounds the cell   BOTH PLANT AND

ANIMAL

Chloroplast

• Function: Where photosynthesis takes place

• An elongated or disc-shaped organelle containing chlorophyll

• PLANTS ONLY

Cytoplasm• Function:

Where the organelles are located.

• The jellylike material outside the cell nucleus.

• BOTH

ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM

• Function:transports materials through the cell

• Rough ER is covered with ribosome's that give it a rough appearance

• BOTH PLANT AND ANIMAL

Golgi Bodies• Function:

Golgi bodies are the packaging house and secreting organelles of the cell.

• Are stacks of membrane-covered sacs that package and move proteins to the outside of the cell.

• BOTH PLANT AND ANIMAL

Lysosome• Function:

Where the digestion of cell nutrients takes place

• They contain digestive enzymes

• ANIMAL ONLY

Mitochondria• Functions:

Where energy is released; Powerhouse

• Spherical to rod-shaped organelles with a double membrane

• Membrane is in-folded many times, forming a series of projections (called cristae)

BOTH PLANT AND ANIMAL

 

Nucleus:The Manager• Function:

Controls many of the functions of the cell

• Spherical body containing many organelles, including the nucleolus

• Contains DNA (in chromosomes)

• Surrounded by the nuclear membrane

BOTH PLANT AND ANIMAL

Ribosome's• Function:

Small structures in the cytoplasm that create proteins.

• Ribosome's are either free floating in the cytoplasm of a cell or attached to endoplasmic reticulum in a cell.

BOTH PLANT AND ANIMAL

Vacuole• Function:

Like your suitcase, a vacuole is a temporary storage space for the cell.

• Fluid-filled, membrane surrounded cavities inside a cell

• Fills with food being digested and waste material that is on its way out of the cell
