Robert Hookescientist who coined the term "cells"
Anton van Leeuwenhoekscientist who discovered single celled organisms
Organellesspecialized structures inside a cell
Cell WallRigid non-living covering of plant and bacteria cells
Cell Membranefragile, porous outer boundary of a cell
Nucleusthe portion of the cell that contains the genetic material; control center of a cell
Chromatinstrands of genetic material inside cell
Nucleolussite inside cell that makes ribosomes
Mitochondriaspecialized structures that convert cell nutrients into energy in the form of ATP
Endoplasmic Reticulummaze like passageways that transport proteins made by ribosomes
Golgi Bodiespackage and secrete proteins transported by the E.R.
Chloroplastsstructures in a plant cell that convert sunlight into sugar
Vacuolesstructures that store food or water and are very large in plant cells compared to animal cells
Lysosomeround structures that recycle cell chemicals
Bacterial Cellcell that has a cell wall & ribosomes,but no other organelles
Schleidenconcluded that all plants are made of cells
Schwannconcluded that animals are also made of cells
Virchowexplained where cells exist
cell theoryidea that cells are the basic units of life, all things are made of cells, and new cells come from pre-existing cells
cytoplasmjelly-like material inside the cell membrane, but not including the nucleus
