Frage Antworten
the nucleus - controls all activities of the cell - surrounded by nuclear membrane - contains genes on chromosomes, which carry instructions for making proteins needed to build new cells/organisms
cytoplams - liquid gel in which organelles are suspended - where most chemical reactions needed for life take place.
cell membrane controls passage of substances into and out of the cell
mitochondria structures in the cell where aerobic respiration take place.
ribosomes where protein synthesis takes place
what are the differences between animals and plants - plants make their own food by photosynthesis - do not move their whole bodies from one place to another - plant cells are often bigger, can be up to 10x the size.
what are algae simple aquatic organisms which also make their food by photosynthesis and have many similar features to plant cells → are classified as part of the protista
cell wall - made of cellulose - strengthens & supports the cell
chloroplasts - contain chlorophyll → absorbs light for photosynthesis; makes plant green - where photosynthesis takes place
permanent vacuole filled with cell sap; keeps cells rigid to support the cell
