Practice: Explain how this applies to the Cell Theory
Application: Cell Parts & Functions TEKS 7.12D differentiate between structure and function in plant and animal cell organelles including cell membrane, cell wall, nucleus, cytoplasm, mitochondrion, chloroplasts & vacuole
Cells are made up of small organ-like structures called organelles.
Each organelle has a specific function that helps the cell function as a whole.
Plant & animal cells are similar, but have different structures specific to their needs & functions.
Organelles & Their Basic Functions…
Nucleus -control center for cell activities -contains genetic information in chromosomes (DNA) that determine which traits are passed to offspring -found in plant & animal cells
Cytoplasm -clear thick jelly-like fluid inside the cell membrane -contains & supports the organelles -found in plant & animal cells
Mitochondria -site of cellular respiration which releases energy from food -provides energy for the cell -“power house” of the cell -found in plant & animal cells
Vacuole -stores water, wastes & other materials -helps provide shape & structure in plant cells -larger in plant cells since they may have to go for long periods without rain -found in plant & animal cells
Cell Membrane -controls what moves in & out of the cell (takes in food/ gases & removes wastes) -outermost layer of an animal cell -inside the cell wall of plant cells -found in plant & animal cells
Cell Wall -rigid, outermost layer of the plant cell *found in plant cells only -shapes, protects & supports the cell
Chloroplasts -contains chlorophyll, a green pigment, that traps sunlight *found in plant cells only -site of photosynthesis
Plant Cell
Animal Cell
