​Some text here about the topic of discussion.

​Cell

Smallest basic unit of a plant: square in shape, has a cell wall, chloroplasts and a large vacuole complared to an animal cell​

​Plant Cell

Smallest basic unit of an animal: round in shape, has many organelles but does not have a cell wall or shloroplasts like a plant cell

​Some text here about the topic of discussion.

Animal Cell

a tiny cell structure that carries out a special function within the cell

​Some text here about the topic of discussion.

Organelle

Control center of the cell; "the brain", where DNA is found.

​Some text here about the topic of discussion.

Nucleus

a jellylike fluid inside the cell in which the organelles are suspended

​Some text here about the topic of discussion.

Cytoplasm

Powerhouse of the cell (where cellular respiration takes place)

​Some text here about the topic of discussion.

​

Mitochondria

An organelle found in plant cells where photosynthesis occurs

​Some text here about the topic of discussion.

​

Chloroplast

Green pigment in plants that obsorbs light energy used to carry out photosynthesis

​Some text here about the topic of discussion.

​

Chlorophyll

​

thin, flexible barrier around a cell; regulates what enters and leaves the cell

​

​Some text here about the topic of discussion.

​Cell membrane

​

strong, supporting layer around the cell membrane in a plant cell

​

​Some text here about the topic of discussion.

​Cell wall

​

Basic storage unit of the cell that can hold various compounds

​Some text here about the topic of discussion.

​Vacuole

​Process that releases energy by breaking down glucose and other food molecules in the presence of oxygen (happens in mitochondria)

​Some text here about the topic of discussion.

Cellular

respiration​

​Plants use the sun's energy to convert water and carbon dioxide into sugars (happens in chloroplasts)

​Some text here about the topic of discussion.

Photosynthesis​

​

the maintenance of a relatively constant environment within a cell

​Some text here about the topic of discussion.

​(cellular)

Homeostasis​

​

unicellular (single celled) organism that lacks a nucleus

​Some text here about the topic of discussion.

​Prokaryote

​

organism whose cells contain a nucleus

​Some text here about the topic of discussion.

​Eukaryote

A well-tested explanation for a wide range of observations or experimental results

​Some text here about the topic of discussion.

Scientific

Theory​

1. Living things are made of cells

2. Cells are the basic unit of life

3. Cell come from preexisting cells
