Plant and Animal cells (science)

CENTRIOLE

-Only found in animal cells -Used in cell division

CELL WALL

-Only found in plant cells -Protects and supports the plant cell -Provides shape for the plant cell

NUCLEAR MEMBRANE

-Found in both plant and animal cells. -"Gatekeeper" for the nucleus. -Controls what enters and leaves the nucleus

ROUGH ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM

-Found in both plant and animal cells. -Have ribosomes attached to it. -Same function as smooth endoplasmic reticulum

NUCLEOLUS

-Found in both plant and animal cells. -Hold genetic information

CHLOROPLASTS

-Found only in plant cells -Contain chlorophyll, allows plant to make its own food

LYSOSOMES

-Found in both plant and animal cells -"Suicide Sacs" -Break down molecules -Kills and digests invading organisms

SMOOTH ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM

-Found in both plant and animal cells -Carries materials through the cytoplasm. -Transports materials from inside the cell to the outside of the cell.

NUCLEUS

-Found in both plant and animal cells -Control Center of the cell. "Brain" of the cell. -Directs all of the cells activities

RIBOSOMES

-Found in both plant and animal cells -Produce proteins

GOLGI APPARATUS

-Found in both plant and animal cells -Stores and packages proteins.

VACUOLE

-Found in both plant and animal cells -Very small in animal cells, very large in plant cells -Stores water and nutrients

NUCLEOPLASM

-Found in both plant and animal cells -Watery fluid inside the nucleus -Stores wastes -Allows transport between structures

CYTOPLASM

-Found in both plant and animal cells -Watery fluid that surrounds the entire cell. -Stores wastes -Allows transport between structures

MITOCHONDRIA

-Found in both plant and animal cells -"Power House" of the cells. -Provides energy to the cells

CELL MEMBRANE

-Found in both plant and animal cells -"Gatekeeper" -Controls what enters and leaves the cell
