Organelles (Science)
What is the function of the chloroplast
The function of the chloroplast is to convert energy from the sun into energy rich food (photosynthesis)
What is the function of the mitochondria
The function of the mitochondria is to produce ATP (energy)
What is the function of he ribosome
The function of the ribosome is to use the messages from the nucleus to synthesize proteins
What does the nucleus do
The nucleus sends out messages to the other organelles
What is the process that the mitochondria performs to make energy
The process is called cellular respiration
Function of the cell membrane
To control what enters and exists the cell (called transport)
Function of the Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)
To move items in different parts of the cell
Function of vacuoles
To store food nutrients water waste etc...
Cytoplasm
Where all the organelles in a cell are located
Chloroplasts are only found in
Plants
Difference between smooth and rough ER
Smooth ER don't have ribosomes attached to them but rough ER do
Cell wall
Additional layer of protection found in all plant cells and some bacteria cells
Lysosomes are only found in
Animal cells
Plants have merger vacuoles than animal cells
Because they need to store more water
Organelle
Structures that make up a cell
Where is DNA found in a cell
DNA is found in the nucleus
Function of lysosomes
Hold enzymes that were created by the cell, digest things
