A | B |
cell wall | Made of cellulose. Function is to protects and supports the cell, found in plant cells |
cell membrane | Function is to protect the cell, performs active & passive transport, found in all cells |
cytoplasm | jelly like substance that contains all the organelles |
nucleus | controls all of the cell's activities, found in plant and animal cells |
nuclear membraine | covers and protects the nucleus, found in plant & animal cells |
Prokaryotic cells | classification for cells that do not have membrane-bound organelle like bacteria and archaea |
nuclelous | dark area inside the nucleus that produces ribosomes. Found in plants and animals |
chromatin | contains genes, provides instructions for the cell's activities like growth and reproduction. Found in all cells. |
rough endoplasmic reticulum | Found in eukaryotic cells. Its main function is to produce proteins. |
smooth endoplasmic reticulum | Found in both animal cells and plant cells. Function is to make cellular products like lipids (fats) and hormones. |
ribosome | Function is to make proteins, Found in all cells, |
mitochondria | Supplies energy (ATP) through cellular respiration. Found in plant and animal cells. |
vacuole | storage tank for food, water, wastes or enzymes. Found in plants and animal cells |
chloroplast | captures sunlight and used in photosynthesis. Found in plants only. |
golgi body | packages and secretes proteins for use in and outside the cell. Found in both animal and plant cells. |
centriole | used with the spindle apparatus during mitosis. Animal cells only. |
vessicle | Used for strange and transport of substances. Found animal cells (rare in plants) |
lysosome | Digests older cell parts, food or other objects. Found in animals cells only |
cytockeleton | Protein filaments for internal support and structure. Found in all cells. |
Flagella | hair-like structures used for locomotion. Found in bacteria. |
