Plant and Animal Cell Parts
(Science Perspectives 10, Nelson: pp. 29-32)
Plant cells are characterized by a thick _____________ and small bodies within the cytoplasm
called _________________, which give the green colour to the plants. These tiny structures are
the primary food factory for all living things on Earth.
______________________ within the chloroplast is also responsible for producing the oxygen
in the air you breathe.
Both animal and plant cells have some similar structural elements.
Animal and plant cells have a ________ ________________ that surrounds the cell. This
allows for the cell to exert control, in most cases, over what can penetrate the cell and what
cannot.
Cell Membrane
•
The cell is surrounded by a flexible _________________ cell membrane.
•
The function of the cell membrane is both to ___________ the cell and to allow some
__________________ to enter while keeping others out.
•
Because of this ability, the cell membrane is called a
“________________________________.”
Nucleus
•
The nucleus is the large _________________
of a cell, directing all of the cell's activities.
•
___________________ that contain your
_________ are stored in this organelle.
•
The nucleus is separated from the rest of the
cell by the ___________________.
Mitochondria
•
The mitochondria is sometimes referred to as the
_____________ of the cell.
•
Mitochondria are largely responsible for providing
the cell with ___________ from glucose (sugar)
through a process called
____________________________.

Endoplasmic Reticulum
•
The endoplasmic reticulum is a three-dimensional
network of branching ___________ and
________________.
•
It extends throughout the cytoplasm from the
_____________________.
•
These fluid-filled tubes transport materials, such as
____________ through the cell.
Ribosome
•
Found on the _______________________________ or
________ in the cytoplasm.
•
___________ are made in this organelle.
Golgi Bodies/Apparatus
•
Golgi bodies ___________ and ____________materials to be removed from the cell.
•
They also make and secrete _________.
•
Cells that secrete a lot of mucus, such as cells lining the ____________, have many
Golgi bodies.
Cytoplasm
•
All the _______________ inside the cell are _______________in the cytoplasm.
•
The cytoplasm is mostly _________, but it also contains many other
__________________ that the cell stores until they are needed.
•
Many ____________________ take place within the cytoplasm.
