Animal and Plant Cells
  1. Nucleus
    1. Contains genetic material which controls the activities of the cell
    2. Cytoplasm
      1. Most chemical processes take place here, controlled by enzymes
      2. Cell Membrane
        1. Controls the movement of substances in and out of the cell
        2. Mitochondria
          1. Most energy released by respiration here
          2. Ribosomes
            1. Protein synthesis occurs here
            2. Plant cells contain extra parts to the regular animal cell
              1. Cell Wall
                1. Strengthens the cell
                2. Chloroplasts
                  1. Contain Chlorophyll
                    1. Chlorophyll absorbs light energy for photosynthesis
                    2. Permanent Vacuole
                      1. Filled with sap to help keep the cell 'Turgid'
