science

1.

organellies

cell structures that have specific functions within a cell

2.

plant's cell wall

a rigid layer that surrounds the cells of plants

3.

Animal's cell membrane

controls which substances can enter or leave the cell. these are made of lipids(fats)

4.

plants have a ____________ on the inside of their cell wall

cell membrane

5.

nucleus

a cells control center : directs all cell activity

6.

chromatin-

contains information for directing cell's functions

7.

ribosomes

small grain shaped: produces protein

8.

cyptoplasm

fills the region between the cell membrane and nucleus

9.

mitochondria

converts energy stored into food energy; known as the powerhouse of the cell

10.

endoplasmic reticulum (ER)

located near the nucleus; helps make proteins with ribosomes

11.

Golgi Apparatus

receives proteins from the ER and packages and distributes them to other parts of the cell or outside

12.

vacuoles

a sac that stores water, food, or other materials

13.

(only for plants)captures energy from sunlight and uses it to make energy(food)

16.

in multicellular organisms, how are cells organized

into tissues, organs, and organ systems

17.

tissue

18.

organ

made of different tissues that function together

19.

organ system
