Aimee Weston’s Model of a Plant Cell • Cell Wall: Made of a tough substance called cellulose, which supports the cell. • Cell membrane: Controls what substances can get into and out of the cell. • Large central vacuole: Contains a liquid called cell sap, which keeps the cell firm. • Chloroplasts: Where photosynthesis happens – chloroplasts contain a green substance called chlorophyll. • Cytoplasm: Jelly-like substance, where chemical reactions happen. In plant cells there's a thin lining, whereas in animal cells most of the cell is cytoplasm. • Nucleus: Controls what happens inside the cell. Carries genetic information. • Golgi apparatus: a flattened, layered, sac-like that looks like a stack of pancakes and is located near the nucleus. It packages proteins and carbohydrates to release from the cell. • Mitochondria: The most prominent roles of mitochondria are to produce the energy for the cell.
