Membrane that surrounds the nucleus.

A cell structure that controls which substances can enter or leave the cell.

Endoplasmic reticulum (ER)

The transportation system of the cell. It moves materials around inside the cell.

Receive proteins, package them, and distribute them to the cell membrane to exit the cell.

Powerhouse of the cell; organelle that is the site of energy production. Breaks down sugar into energy.

Uses chemicals to break down food and worn-out cell parts in animal cells.

An organelle found in plant and algae cells where photosynthesis occurs.

A rigid structure that surrounds the cell membrane and provides support to the cell in plant cells.

Cell organelle that stores materials such as water, salts, proteins, and carbohydrates.

Process that occurs in chloroplasts and converts the sun's energy into sugars.

The concept in which cells are designed in different ways to perform different tasks in a complex organism.

A group of similar cells that perform the same function.

A collection of tissues that carries out a specialized function of the body.

A group of organs that work together to perform a specific function.

Photosynthesis Formula

carbon dioxide + water + sunlight → sugar + oxygen

Difference between plant and animal cells

Plant cells are larger, have a cell wall, and chloroplasts; animal cells are smaller and do not have a cell wall or chloroplasts.

Gel-like substance in cells in which organelles float

Tiny, specialized structures in cells that perform specific functions.

Six Kingdoms of Living Things
