GRADE 6 PLANT AND ANIMAL CELL

The “brain” of the cell that contains the

cell’s DNA and controls the cell’s activities.

• Mitochnodria

• Nucleus

• Vacuole

• Cell Wall

Tags

NGSS.MS-LS1-2

The jelly-like substance that holds and protects the cell’s

organelles

• Cytoplasm

• Nucleus

• Chloroplasts

• Mitochondria

Tags

NGSS.MS-LS1-2

These organelles build or synthesize proteins for the cell and are located on the rough endoplasmic reticulum.

• Cell Membrane

• Lysosomes

• Ribosomes

• Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum

Tags

NGSS.MS-LS1-2

Known as the “powerhouse” of the cell because they

release energy (break down food molecules) to make ATP

• Cell Wall

• Mitochondria

• Cytoplasm

• Golgi Apparatus

Tags

NGSS.MS-LS1-2

NGSS.MS-LS1-7

This structure packages and moves proteins through the cell.

• Golgi Apparatus/Complex

• Vesicles

• Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum

• Mitochondria

Tags

NGSS.MS-LS1-2

This is the outer layer of an animal cell, and it controls

movement in and out of the cell.

• Vacuole

• Cell Wall

• Cell Membrane

• Chloroplasts

Tags

NGSS.MS-LS1-2

This is a large sac that holds food, water, and waste.

• Vacuole

• Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum

• Golgi Apparatus

• Cell Wall

Tags

NGSS.MS-LS1-2

The outer layer of a plant cell and the cell wall provides shape, protection, and support to the cell

• Chloroplasts

• Cell Wall

• Cell Membrane

• Cytoplasm

Tags

NGSS.MS-LS1-2

This green structure is found only in plant cells and uses energy from the sun to make food

• Vesicles

• Mitochondria

• Chloroplasts

• Cell Wall

Tags

NGSS.MS-LS1-2

NGSS.MS-LS1-6

Contains many smaller vacuoles but no cell wall or chlorplasts

• Plant Cell

• Animal Cell
