Plant cell vs. Animal cell: Cell wall

in plant cells, absent in animal cells

Plant cell vs. Animal cell: Vacuole size

central vacuole in plants, small or absent in animals

Plant cell vs. Animal cell: Shape

cells rectangular, animal cells round/irregular

Plant cell vs. Animal cell: Energy production

use photosynthesis and respiration, animals only respiration

Prokaryotic vs. Eukaryotic cells: Nucleus

lack nucleus, eukaryotes have nucleus

Prokaryotic vs. Eukaryotic cells: Organelles

have membrane-bound organelles, prokaryotes do not

Prokaryotic vs. Eukaryotic cells: Examples

bacteria; Eukaryotes: plants, animals, fungi

Four main biomolecules in cells

lipids, proteins, nucleic acids

Function of proteins in cells

structure, transport, signaling

Predict effect of missing mitochondria in a cell

cannot efficiently produce ATP, reduced energy

Reason for plant cells having chloroplasts

for photosynthesis to produce glucose

Consequence of damaged cell membrane

of homeostasis, uncontrolled substance movement

Evidence for eukaryotic cells being more complex than prokaryotic

of nucleus and organelles in eukaryotes

Planning an experiment: Test for presence of starch in plant cells

iodine solution; blue-black color indicates starch

Reasoning: Why animal cells lack cell walls

needed for movement and varied shapes

Planning: Identify cell type using microscope

for nucleus, cell wall, chloroplasts to distinguish

Reasoning: Why DNA is important for cells

instructions for protein synthesis and cell function

Predict effect of missing ribosomes

protein synthesis, cell cannot function properly
