What are the structures of an animal cell? - ✔✔✔Nucleus, cytoplasm, cell membrane, mitochondria
and ribosomes.
What are the structures of a plant cell? - ✔✔✔All structures from animal cells and cell wall, permanent
vacuole and chloroplasts.
What does the nucleus do? - ✔✔✔Stores DNA and directs all cellular activities.
What is the cytoplasm do? - ✔✔✔Where most chemical reactions take place.
What does the cell membrane do? - ✔✔✔Holds the cell together and controls what goes in and out.
What is the mitochondria? - ✔✔✔Powerhouse of the cell where aerobic respiration takes place.
What are ribosomes? - ✔✔✔site of protein synthesis
What is the cell wall? - ✔✔✔Found on the outside of plant cells, it is made of cellulose and strengthens
the cell.
What is the permanent vacuole? - ✔✔✔Found in plant cells, it helps support the cell.
What are chloroplasts? - ✔✔✔Site of photosynthesis.
Do all plant cells have chloroplasts? - ✔✔✔No.
, What are the two main type of cell? - ✔✔✔Prokaryotic and eukaryotic.
What cells are eukaryotic? - ✔✔✔Plant, animal and fungal cells
What cell is prokaryotic? - ✔✔✔bacteria
What are the differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells? - ✔✔✔prokaryotic cells are
smaller, do not contain a nucleus genetic material is instead in a single DNA loop and they contain small
rings called plasmids.
What is a typical bacterial cell? - ✔✔✔Cytoplasm which takes over job of mitochondria and
chloroplasts, may be a flagella, plasmids are present.
How many micrometers are in a meter? - ✔✔✔1,000,000
What is a light microscope? - ✔✔✔A microscope that uses a series of glass lenses and visible light to
magnify an image. This microscope magnifies images up to 1,000 times the actual size.
What is a electron microscope? - ✔✔✔a microscope with high magnification and resolution,
employing electron beams in place of light and using electron lenses.
What is the formula for magnification? - ✔✔✔Magnification = image size / real size
What is cell division? - ✔✔✔Process by which a cell divides into two new daughter cells
Where are chromosomes found? - ✔✔✔nucleus of a cell
