| A | B |
|---|
| cell wall | only found in plant cells, helps protect and support the plant, made of cellulose |
| cell membrane | found in both plant and animal cells, protects and supports animal cell, helps to control the movement of materials into and out of the cell |
| nucleus | control center of teh cell, acts as the "brain" of the cell |
| chromosomes | direct all activities of the cell, including growth and reproduction; pass on the traits of the cell to a new cells |
| nuclear membrane | surrounds the nucleus and allows materials to pas into and out of the nucleus |
| nucleolus | "little nucleus" believed to be where ribosomes are produced |
| ribosomes | made mostly of RNA and are involved in the protein-making process in the cell |
| cytoplasm | clear, thick, jellylike substance that is between teh nucleus and the cell membrane |
| endoplasmic reticulum | clear tubular passageways that act as a transportation system |
| mitochondria | supply most of teh energy for the cell |
| vacuoles | food and other mterials needed by the cell are stored inside ((most plants have them and some animals have them) |
| lysosomes | invovled in the digestive activities of the cell (common in animal cells, not often found in plant cells) |
| chloroplasts | cell oranelle that contains chlorophyll which captures sunlight that helps produce food for the plant cell (This process is called photosynthesis) |
