Plant and Animal Cells
Parts of an Animal Cell Use the following words to label the picture below: SPELLING COUNTScell membrane mitochondria nucleus ribosome smooth endoplasmic reticulum lysosomerough endoplasmic reticulum cytoplasm centriole cytoskeleton golgi body nuclear membrane nucleolus cell membrane nuclear membrane mitochondria ribosome centriole golgi body smooth endoplasmic reticulum rough endoplasmic reticulum cytoskeleton lysosome cytoplasm nucleus nucleolus Specialized Parts of an Animal Cell: Functions Match the following organelles to their correct function Mitochondria Breaks glucose molecules to release energy via Cellular Respiration Lysosome membrane bound organelle that contains digestive enzymes; helps breakdown worn out cell parts or waste Cytoskeleton network of protein filaments called microtubules found in the cytoplasm of many living cells, gives the shape and support Centrioles cylindrical tube that is located near the nucleus and is responsible for the development of spindle fibers that aid in cell division. Peroxisome membrane bound organelle that contains a variety of different enzymes involved in metabolic reactions; contain catalase which aids in the breakdown of H2O2 Vaculoes small membrane bound organelle (vessicle) used to store and transport materials in the cell Label the Plant Cell Correctly label the organelles of the plant cell below: SPELLING COUNTScell wall cell membrane mitochondria nucleus large vacuole golgi body chloroplast smooth ER rough ER cytoskeleton nucleolus peroxisome ribosome cell wall cell membrane mitochondria nucleus large vacuole golgi body chloroplast rough ER smooth ER cytoskeleton nucleolus peroxisome ribosome Specialized Parts of Plant Cell: Functions Match the following Cell Wall Protective outer layer Chloroplast Uses energy from the sun and carbon dioxide to make sugar for the cell Mitochondria Breaks down sugar to release energy for the cell Large Central Vacuole stores water and minerals and helps the plant maintain turgor pressure Comparing Plant and Animal Cells Click on each cell part and select the appropriate category. Animals Only shape: round some can move via flagella or cilia lysosome centrioles mostly heterotrophic-must eat other organisms for food and energy Both Plants Animals nucleus ribosome mitochondria cytoplasm cell membrane endoplasmic reticulum peroxisome Plants Only cell wall chloroplast shape: boxy large central vacuole mostly unable to move photosynthetic Organelles found in BOTH Animal and Plants Cells Match the following organelles to their correct function Plasma Membrane Controls what can enter or exit the cells Cytoplasm Watery, gel that fill the cell and is the location of many chemical reactions Ribosome Site of protein synthesis inside of the cell Nucleus Protects the DNA of the cell Mitochondria Breaks glucose molecules to release energy via Cellular Respiration Nucleolus site of ribosome synthesis found inside the nucleus Organelles found in BOTH Animal and Plants Cells Match the following organelles to their correct function Cytoskeleton network of protein filaments called microtubules found in the cytoplasm of many living cells, gives the shape and support Golgi Body packages proteins made in the cell within vesicles for transport Peroxisome membrane bound organelle that contains a variety of different enzymes involved in metabolic reactions; contain catalase which aids in the breakdown of H2O2 Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum membrane bound organelle that is the site of lipid and steroid synthesis Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum membrane bound organelle that have attached ribsomes and is the site of protein synthesis and folding vesicles membrane enclosed sacs that are used to transport nutrients and other necessary molecules Sort the characteristics of prokaryotes and eukaryotes into the correct category. Prokaryote unicellular circular DNA example: Archaebacteria and Eubacteria no nucleus no membrane bound organelles contain plasmids smaller in size cell division:binary fission Eukaryote mostly multicellular, some unicellular linear DNA examples: Protists, Fungi, Plants and Animals nucleus present membrane bound organelles contain more than one chromosome larger in size cell division:mitosis
